A little bit about me

Nurturing young minds and caregiving is more than a job for me; it's a genuine passion.
I find immense satisfaction in fostering their growth and providing families with
dependable childcare. For the past five years, I've had the joy of caring for children aged 0-11, including newborns, toddlers and preschoolers. I have babysat and nannied for multiple families throughout the years and can provide references.
I am patient, friendly, and very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents through regular updates via text or phone call, always following their preferred method. I enjoy outdoor play, going on walks board games, and puzzles with children.
1 am First Aid Trained and CPR Trained, and I'm a Certified Nursing Assistant and water safety instructor. I have a lot of experience with special needs children as well. I am comfortable with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I am comfortable caring for up to four children.

A little bit about me

I am a very well versed nanny who has always left glowing impressions on the families who have trusted me with their little ones. I have taken the time to do a live scan finger printing, background check, and cpr certification, and a list of references to make it that much easier for the parents to know their children are safe with me.
I have a passion for working with kids and have been working with kids since the age of 13 in a professional setting. I have been a daycare assistant teacher and have a very good grasp of child development, different communication styles that may work better on different kids, and giving children space to learn through play. As a nanny I am very nourishing, interactive, and cautious. I look forward to meeting a family who has great communication skills as a good relationship between the nanny and parents is very important to be a team in the care of the children involved. My favorite ages are under one and over four.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Edilawit, but I go by Addie. I’m a college student at Grossmont College and someone who truly enjoys caring for others. I live independently, so I’m very responsible, organized, and comfortable maintaining a clean, safe, and nurturing environment for children.

I’m also an aunt, and caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. In addition, I have been trusted to babysit for one of my Grossmont College professors, which reflects my reliability and the level of trust others place in me. I have experience working with youth ages 12–18, including homeless and foster youth, which has helped me become patient, trauma-informed, and attentive to individual needs.

As a former foster youth myself, I’m open-minded, compassionate, and skilled at building strong, trusting relationships with children from all backgrounds. I’m a great listener and I love being playful, engaging, and supportive while also providing structure and consistency.
