A little bit about me

Hi, I’m 24 years old and a certified CNA with CPR certification. I have 3 years of experience working at UCLA Health, including time in postpartum, NICU, and pediatrics, where I’ve cared for newborns and children at different stages of development. I’m experienced with infant care including feeding, diaper changes, burping, swaddling, and soothing techniques. I also have several years of babysitting experience and I’m currently expanding my knowledge through newborn care specialist and postpartum doula courses.

I’m very nurturing, adventurous, and love planning fun, engaging activities for kids. I truly enjoy creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Araceli and I am currently a student at UCLA completing my bachelors in education. My background in child care traces all the way back home as my mom had her own home day care and extends to my most recent years of experience in a pre-K classroom. I've worked with multiple age groups learning so much along the way. My favorite part about childcare is the mutually contagious energy that makes me love my job that much more.
