A little bit about me

I recently graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and am looking for part-time work, open to full-time, depending on the schedule! I also recently moved to down to San Diego and excited to be apart of the community here. I have about 6-7 years of experience working with children, ages 7 months-11 years old, as a nanny, teacher aide, and behavioral technician. I am a kind and compassionate person and am reliable and organized. I can help with cleaning, cooking, tutoring, and running errands as well. I enjoy caring for, playing and working with kids and am excited to help out as much as I can!

A little bit about me

Hello, I am a 28 year old Texas transplant living in Pacific Beach.

I aim to exceed parent expectations by building healthy bonds, taking care of house duties, and helping the child become the best version of themselves. I also have experience with autistic/special needs children.
