About Heather

Experience: 3 yrs

I've always enjoyed spending time with and caring for children. I have three years of experience caring for children of all ages, from toddlers to preteens. I'm patient, calm, and friendly, and I enjoy creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn and grow. I believe in open communication with parents and follow their preferred method of communication. I also follow the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. I love playing all sorts of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that promote learning. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children at a time and have experience with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm also a non-smoker and comfortable with pets. I would love the opportunity to care for your children and help them reach their full potential.

Heather is incredible!! She stepped up when our family was in a time of great need and she did so with grace, confidence, and skill. She is sweet, caring, and beyond engaging. Caring for a nine to ten-month-old is no small feat, especially when she became very mobile part way through the two month time period. Heather was focused on our child when she was here, working to help her learn and grow in developmentally appropriate ways and rose to the challenge of doing so for long periods of time. Our child loves Heather so much and will miss her dearly!! If you are searching for a kind, skilled, and trustworthy human to watch your everythings, Heather is your gal!!
