Nurturing young minds is my passion. I'm currently on the path to become a pediatric speech-language pathologist, and I love applying what I've learned about communication, language development, and behavior into my babysitting work. For the past 10 years, I've cared for children 0-11, with a special focus on toddlers and early school-aged kids. I bring a calm, patient, and friendly energy to every family I work with and enjoy engaging children through outdoor play, board games, and educational activities. I'm confident in setting boundaries and reinforcing household rules, and I make it a point to communicate clearly with parents, whether during pickup or regular updates via your preferred method. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in English, Portuguese, Spanish and conversational ASL. I also have reliable transpiration and am great with pets. More than just a sitter, I strive to be a positive, trusted presence and make a meaningful difference in your child's life.
We’ve had the pleasure of having Thais care for our daughter multiple days a week over the past year and a half (since our daughter was nearly 6 months old). From the start, Thais has worked to build a strong, trusting and loving bond with our daughter. The relationship they have is so sweet to witness. Our daughter lights up when Thais arrives and asks me nearly every morning if “T” will be here today! Thais comes to our home with a warm and calm presence, ready to engage. She is fun, nurturing and incredibly intentional about creating meaningful experiences through play, learning and routines which has supported our daughter’s growth and confidence. She has supported M’s language development (both sign and verbal) and is always finding creative ways to challenge her and inspire imaginative and sensory play. She loves reading, singing songs, arts and crafts and water play too. She is communicative, responsible and respectful of our home. We receive consistent updates about meals, naps, activities and milestones. Thais takes great pictures too! Thais is flexible when our schedules shift on occasion and mindful of times we are taking work meetings from home. We’ve felt so grateful for the level of care and genuine investment Thais has shown our family.
