Hello! I’m Lauren—friendly, patient, and empathetic, with a Master’s degree in Educational and Developmental Psychology. Although I’m new to babysitting, my background has given me a strong understanding of child development, which helps me create a nurturing, safe, and fun environment where children feel supported, heard, and valued. I’m comfortable caring for pets, preparing meals, doing light housework, and assisting with homework, and I love engaging children through drawing, reading, crafting, and fun games. Babysitting allows me to step outside my formal psychology role and connect with children on a more caring, rewarding level. I have a car and a driver’s license, so I’m able to help with transportation needs as well. Above all, I value open communication with parents and caregivers, ensuring that you always feel comfortable, informed, and confident in the care your child receives. I look forward to meeting your family and helping to support your children’s unique needs and interests!
