A little bit about me

Hi,

My name is Adriana and I have several years of experience working as a nanny, childcare provider, and preschool teacher. I have 21 ECE units and am CPR and first aid certified through the Red Cross. I graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in English Literature and Wildlife Biology.

I am hands on, energetic, and creative. I am able to set limits and create boundaries. I also am able to meet a child where he/she is emotionally and nurture the whole child. I have experience with newborns through teenagers and also have experience with special needs children. I help to provide a safe,nurturing environment for kids of all ages and love to engage with them through all sorts of age appropriate activities.

I love art, math, and science and incorporate that throughout my day with the kids of all ages. I am fluent in Spanish.

I am looking for either a part-time or full time position.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Pontsho but you can call me Pride.
I’m an experienced childcare provider. Started in 2014 as a part-time volunteer at my aunt’s daycare and in 2016 I transitioned to full-time because I didn’t have a job holding me back anymore.
As an only child, I’ve always loved being around kids and get to be a fun, affectionate, protective older sister.
I have experience with infants and children 1 to 15 years of age.
I was an AuPair for 2 years and after my AuPair term ended I've been a nanny for multiple families. (urbansitters, bambino etc.)

My favorite kid book is: I'm not just a scribble.
It's a book that teaches about kindness.
It inspires creativity at a very young age and also teaches how one can express their feelings in color and drawing.

I look forward to hearing from you,

Thank you
