Sitter in Halifax, Nova Scotia

I am a recent Social Service Worker graduate from George Brown College who is looking for full time or part time babysitting opportunities. I am a positive, outgoing individual who loves spending time with kids. I spent the first 8 months of 2022 living with my nephew who I helped looked after. During this time we developed a strong bond and relationship through playing, adventuring and enriching his learning. I also have many years of babysitting experience. I also have a number of years of experience coaching kids how to cross country ski and as a camp counsellor. While looking after kids, my goal is to engage them in activities that will help enrich their learning and help them develop important skills they'll continue to use. I am willing to do some light house chores as well as meal prep for your family. I have been cooking since I was very young as my mother teaches cooking to elementary school kids. I was often the guinea pig for many of her recipes, and have since developed a repertoire of kid friendly, healthy and tasty recipes. Depending on the house tasks, I also love to include the kids I'm looking after in these activities in a safe way to help teach them important skills they'll continue to use. Whether it be tidying up, getting pets ready for a walk, or reading, I want to involve the kids as much as I can. Beyond developing a relationship with kids, I want to develop a relationship with you, the parents and any other important role models in the child's life. I feel it's really important when looking after your kids.
