Experience: 6 yrs
Nurturing a child's growth and development is my true passion, a calling that has defined my career for the past six years. My patient and calm demeanor helps me build strong, supportive relationships with children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers. I am creative and imaginative, often engaging children with educational games, puzzles, or outdoor adventures in nature. I am comfortable caring for up to three children and am happy to follow your lead regarding household rules. I prioritize clear communication and will provide updates via your preferred method. As a reliable provider with my own car, I am ready to support your family's unique needs and am always happy to welcome pets into our daily routine. I hold CPR training and First Aid certifications. I look forward to bringing my dedication and energy into your home to help your children thrive.
We love Tess!! My kids beg us to leave so she can come over. She genuinely engages with our kids—always up for games and arts and crafts. On top of being fun, she’s wonderfully responsible. She thinks ahead about safety (she even asked where we keep the fire extinguisher when she arrived), and she stays attentive throughout. When our son touched some mushrooms, she called right away to let us know, which we really appreciated. She also goes above and beyond around the house, like taking care of the dishes without being asked. We trust her completely and highly recommend her to any family looking for a kind, dependable sitter. I almost regret writing this b/c we want to keep her all to ourselves.
