A little bit about me

Hello!

I've cared for children from 1 to 12 years old. I love coming up with crafts and activities to keep the kids entertained. I try my best to keep kids engaged in different tasks and I am also good at coming up with new fun things to do if something isn't working for some children. I am very cheerful and adaptable to meet children's needs.

I am willing to help with homework and light housekeeping. I am comfortable working with 3 children at once as well as having pets around. I have just graduated from college and have had experience working with toddlers, elementary, and middle school kids in a school setting. I have some experience working with children who need behavioral support as well.

Please let me know if there is anything else you'd like to know. Have a great day!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

In college, I spent a lot of time working with elementary, middle, and high school students in a school setting. I helped with group instruction as well as individual instruction. I also worked in after school programs where I helped lead activities with middle school children. I currently work as a tutor where I work with students of all ages with their reading and writing skills.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love doing arts and crafts with kids. Anything from popsicle sticks to using shaving cream to make cloud paintings. My approach to arts and crafts activities is to make them fun but to also make them educational. I am also able to think in the moment to make changes to activities to ensure that all children are safe and having fun.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important is making sure that children are always safe and always feel safe. I try to create an environment that encourages kids to develop emotionally and intellectually. My method of approaching all situations is to ensure that the children feel heard and feel that their opinions are taken into consideration.

My experience with special needs children...

In my current position as a tutor, I work a lot with children on the autism spectrum as well as students with ADHD. I have learned some behavioral techniques as well as methods to interact with them.

Full-Time Nanny Available in Sacramento, CA: Zencia B.

I've been working with kids for about 10 years, and whether we're doing arts and crafts, getting ready for school, winding down from a structured day, playing at the park, or just having a calm afternoon together, I bring a lot of heart to whatever the day looks like. I'm comfortable with all ages and but have most experience with ( 6 months - 10 yrs old). I enjoy being a steady, caring presence in a child's routine. I also have several years of experience supporting children diagnosed with ADHD, Autism, and sensory processing differences.

I'm also flexible and easy to communicate with! If that means adjusting a scheduled day, coming in earlier, or staying later when extra help is needed. Building real trust with both the children and the family matters a lot to me; it's what makes everything else work.

Callista R. - Seeking Work in Sacramento

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Sacramento, CA: Callista R.

I have worked with kids for over 3 years now. I have worked as a nanny, intern at a private school (Davis Waldorf School), and as an after school teacher in public education (Sacramento Chinese Community Service Center). On top of looking after children I can cook, clean, drive, and tutor. If requested I can also create an enriched afternoon for your child or children. And of course I'd be happy to supply materials for such projects. As an intern I worked primarily with preschool and kindergarten and learned how to calmly transition youngsters from school time to nap time to snack time and then on with the rest of the afternoon. At the center I worked with third through fifth graders where we would transition from school to homework and then snack and then an enriching activity. I have a background in theatre and dance, as well as most fine art from painting to mixed media to ceramics and even digital art.
