About Lydia

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development, which is why I became a childcare provider. I have 3 years of experience and am comfortable caring for up to 4 children of all ages. I'm patient, calm, creative, and friendly, and I take pride in providing a safe and nurturing environment for children to learn and play. I believe that communication with parents is essential, so I provide regular updates on their child's day and any issues that arise. I follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules and am comfortable with pets. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. In addition to my experience, I have some college education and am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable driving children to and from activities. I'm dedicated to providing the best possible care for children and look forward to the opportunity to support your family.

Lydia was a great caretaker for my 5 kids. She’s been watching them for the past 5 years, as our family has grown, and it’s always a joy when she’s available to come over. She is such a positive light and the kids always have so much fun when she’s over.
