A little bit about me
Nurturing young minds and supporting families are my passions. For the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens and working as a behavioral therapist in ABA. I find immense satisfaction in fostering their growth through creative play, educational games, and outdoor activities. I am comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. I communicate with parents regularly, using their preferred method, and always follow their lead when enforcing household rules. I am also certified in First Aid and CPR, and TrustLine certified (CA only). I am happy to assist with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and crafts. My coursework in Early Child Development has further enhanced my skills. Being patient, creative, friendly, and calm allows me to connect with children. I'm eager to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family, creating a safe and fun environment for your little ones to thrive.
