Every child deserves to feel seen, supported, and encouraged to explore the world around them. Caring for children is more than a job to me, it brings me joy. With four years of experience caring for children ages 0-11, I provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and grow. With a background in Early Childhood Education and Development, I love creating meaningful moments through games, crafts, puzzles, reading, and outdoor activities that support each child's developmental needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I am First Aid and CPR certified. I believe consistency helps children feel secure, so I respect each family's routines, household rules, and preferred communication styles to keep parents informed and comfortable. I'm also happy to assist with meal preparation and light housekeeping to help make your day easier. I look forward to building a connection with your family and being a positive presence in your child's life.
Julia is one of the most mature people I’ve ever met. She is kind, considerate, great with children, and I would trust her with my life or my childrens lives. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her and trust her. I supervised her for the last four years when she was a Preschool para and she was one of the best paras I’ve ever had. She has natural instincts when it comes to reading children.
