More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have been volunteering with my church helping with the toddlers and elementary school kids for the past 3 years. I also have babysat for my friend's 1 year old for about a week at a time on and off for the last few months. Additionally, I work with junior high and high school kids in foster care through a ministry at my church 2x a month. Before that, I used to be a camp counselor and babysat when I was in high school.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love board or card games, imagination play, athletic or sports activities like play catch, kicking balls, etc, doing puzzles, arts & crafts, drawing, Lego, and can also help with educational activities (UCLA graduate).
The most important part about being a nanny...
Treating the kid with the appropriate level of respect and care. Not as equal but not from the severe "adult-child" unequal dynamic I grew up with either. I am a fan of the "gentle parenting" paradigm and teaching and respecting kids and their boundaries. And so, getting down to their level whenever possible while keeping them safe is a top priority.
My experience with special needs children...
I have some experience being around kids with autism (friends with 2 elementary school kids and another with older kids) but it has been in a hanging out with friends but also with the kids and including them as much as possible extent. I also work for teenagers in foster care through my church and many are neuro-divergent. I have managed ADHD but this gives me lots of empathy. I will start providing consistent respite work for a family with a young teenager with autism this summer.
The most important part about being a nanny...
With every experience I have had with kids, that first time after they switch from nervous and scared to comfortable and happy and they greet you with a smile versus hesitancy is pretty great because that means I have earned their trust at that point.

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Costa Mesa, CA: Taylor B.
Hi, I’m 28 years old and originally from Nashville, TN. I moved to Santa Ana almost 5 years ago and about 2 years ago moved to Costa Mesa! Upon moving to California I was a nanny to a family of two children under the age of 7. This has been my favorite job to date. I not only love helping with children, I enjoy helping with other errands around the house or out and about! Also growing up I would care for children at our local church, within my own family, and as a job on the side.

Hello!
My name is Thalia and I'm 33 years old. I'm currently taking Early Childhood classes at OC and so far I have 9 credits. My experience taking care of kids started when I was a teenager taking care of my siblings, cousins and neighbors. I enjoyed doing crafts and arts with them. When I was 22 years old I was a live-in nanny for a family of 4 (twin boys-1.5yrs, a girl – 3yrs & girl -4 yrs). I lived with them for 3 years. After that, I moved in with another family as a live-in nanny as well taking care of a newborn boy and a 3 year old girl. In addition, my last experience working with kids was in a daycare as an aid teacher working with kids from 2 through 5 years. I consider myself a responsible and patient person.
