I've been the designated babysitter for years and started paid services about 3 years ago. I love children and am an aspiring teacher! I don't like being condescending with children. My approach to childcare is very much hands on and gentle. Children still have very real thoughts and feelings and shouldn't be talked down to, but cared for and taught to be the best person they can be as they grow! I love crafts and baking and would love to share my positivity and lend a listening ear.

Iris came in on less than 12 hours notice to take care of a four-year-old who had just had their tonsils out and was both easily tired and having trouble talking and eating. She did an outstanding job working with a kid who didn’t really know from minute to minute how much mental or physical energy they had available, and we consider ourselves very lucky to have found her.
