A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sophia and I have 4-5 years of hands on experience caring for children from newborns to early teens. I've worked closely with families, creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments for kids of all ages.
In addition to my babysitting experience, I also spent 3 seasons working as a counselor at the Kroc Center summer camp. I also had the opportunity to step in as an educator during COVID for the children I looked after for those few months. Both these roles helped me develop strong skills in structure, creativity, and management in fun educational ways. I also have a background as a youth softball coach, which has strengthened my ability to mentor, and build confidence in kids.
Currently I work as a receptionist in the OBGYN department at Sharp Rees-Stealy while pursuing my Master's in Teaching. My long-term goal is to build a career working with children, and I see every childcare opportunity as a meaningful step toward becoming the best educator I can be.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Diana. So, a little bit about me, I have watched kids for 5+ years, I am CPR certified and have newborn experience from my previous job. The lady I worked for in the past was a chef, so I have had a lot of experience with meal prepping and helping out with breakfast/lunch/dinner. I did light house work for her as well including laundry and dishes and swiffering throughout the day. I was working 45-50 hours a week for her so I am very comfortable with infants and up. Let me know if this is something you still were wanting help with and I hope to hear from you soon!

A little bit about me

I recently graduated from San Diego State University where I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have recently been helping out a couple that owns an event company where they both work from home with a family of 4 kids (all under the age of 7 years old). They have taught me so much and I have truly learned so much from both the children and the parents. I love helping out the family and realized how much I love being around children. I am a very happy person with a positive attitude and will make sure the child’s needs are always fulfilled. I have a very flexible schedule and am pretty much available Monday - Sunday at any time. Please message me with any questions; I am more than happy to answer any that you may have.
(PS. am also fully vaccinated!)
