About Harper

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am excited about fostering children's growth and dedicated to providing reliable childcare and tutoring for families. In addition to working in offices, I have babysat and tutored on the side. I am passionate about the wellbeing and safety of all children. I'm patient, calm, and creative, and I love playing board games, puzzles. I am skilled in spelling, grammar, reading comprehension, and essay writing. I believe in open and honest communication with parents and will always keep them updated about their child's day and any issues that arise. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a safe and structured environment. My college degree (BA in English and Literature) and being bilingual and biliterate in English and Spanish have given me the tools needed to help kids learn and thrive in their education. I can comfortably care for two children at a time, and I have experience with children aged 3-15.

Harper is an amazing babysitter! She watched our two children from toddler to elementary school age, and we wished she still lived close by. She engaged them in age appropriate activities and games, read to them, took them to the park and helped with meals. She is reliable, caring and calm, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other families for babysitting or tutoring.
