About Penelope

Experience: 8 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families through reliable, compassionate care has been my passion for the past eight years. My background in Early Child Development coursework allows me to foster a safe, engaging environment for up to four children, ranging from infants to pre-teens. I am patient, calm, and highly creative, often organizing outdoor sports or puzzles to keep young minds active. Because I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide attentive swimming supervision. I hold CPR Training and First Aid certifications to ensure your children remain safe. I always follow your lead on household rules and adapt my communication style to your preferred method, whether that is a quick text or a detailed chat at pickup. I genuinely enjoy making a positive impact on a child's daily life. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted partner in your children's growth.

Working with Ms. Penelope was a wonderful experience. She is highly skilled in childcare and knows exactly how to engage and care for children of various ages. She is very attentive, compassionate, and always mindful of the children’s needs. Her calm, fun, and loving approach helped create a safe and positive environment for everyone. She is also very polite, professional, and punctual. I truly enjoyed working with her and learned a lot from her dedication and hands-on care throughout the weekend. Looking forward to working with you again next month Ms. Pen! 🩷
