Hello! My name is Moki, and I am an 18-year-old babysitter, ready to bring a positive and responsible approach to caring for your children!
Growing up in a large, family-oriented household, I have been surrounded by and tasked with caring for kids of all ages, which has provided me with ample hands-on experience and a deep understanding of the joys and challenges that come with looking after children.
Despite lack of formal nannying, I have spent years casually caring for family and friends, which has given me a broad range of experiences with children from infants to pre-teens. My familiarity with different age groups allows me to adapt my caregiving style to meet the unique needs of each child. Whether it’s engaging in creative play, supervising outdoor activities, or enforcing a calming bedtime routine, I am committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for your family.
Being very family-oriented, I understand the importance of creating a homely and welcoming atmosphere. I love being around kids and enjoy the energy and creativity they bring. Additionally, I am very comfortable with household pets. Whether it’s feeding the family dog or cleaning the cat’s litter box, I’m happy to include pet care as part of my babysitting duties. I believe pets are part of the family too, and I ensure they are well cared for alongside your children. With this, I am prepared to assist a household however I can, including cooking and cleaning!
Let’s face it, kids can be messy! From spilled milk to finger-painting sessions, I am not squeamish about getting my hands dirty. I believe in encouraging children’s creativity and exploration and am aware that all kinds of accidents can happen, leading to a mess! I feel fully equipped to not only deal with this kind of clean up but prepared to assist a child experiencing sickness or pre/toilet-training.
Currently, I am a university student with a focus on childhood development as part of my studies. This academic background gives me a deeper insight into the developmental stages of children and effective ways to support their growth and learning. I enjoy incorporating educational activities into my babysitting, such as reading, arts and crafts, and cognitive developmental games and feel prepared to assist with all kinds of homework or take home tasks. I aim to create a stimulating environment that fosters learning and curiosity in children. I come from an athletic background, so I am no stranger to physical playtime and/or around the house heavy lifting.
As a university student, I am fortunate enough to have a flexible schedule. This being said, I pride myself on punctuality, communication, responsibility and reliability, so despite my ability to fit in where-ever you’d like, you can trust that regardless the time, the quality of my service will remain the same.
I am first aid trained and am in the process of receiving my working with vulnerable people's card. I am also happy and open to complete a police check, if that is something that would make you and your family more comfortable!!
Choosing the right babysitter for your family is crucial, and I am committed to providing the best care for your children. With my experience, friendly nature, and dedication to child development, I am confident that I can offer a positive and enriching experience for your family. Thank you for considering me as your babysitter. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your wonderful children!
