Experience: 10 yrs
I started babysitting 15 years ago, when I was in junior high. I have always loved working with kids. Activities I enjoy with children are making art, playing pretend, reading stories, and exploring nature. I have experience with nearly all ages, from 3 months to teens. I also have been in a teaching role as a substitute teacher for all grades. I have my Bachelors degree in French and liberal arts. My care-taking style is relaxed and intuitive. I like to let the children follow their inner guide. I see myself as someone who can make sure the child is safe and nurtured, while they navigate the world and their interests. -Helena Renee

Renee F. is a very reliable and excellent caregiver. We have had her babysit, dog sit, and house watch for at least 7 years. She is very perceptive and is able to handle many different circumstances and situations. We have 3 sons and 2 dogs and they all look forward to spending time with Renee. I will hire again if I have the opportunity. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
