A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Unique Medina and I am a young entrepreneur who has loved working with children since I was a child myself! I am a creative person who enjoys making crafty items for family and friends. I love listening to music, reading books about the human body and learning about nature and plants.
I started off working with children when I was 13-14 years old. I mentored school children with their work. Later I started babysitting friends children and coworkers children. I have always loved children and I am always around them. I absolutely love them and i can relate to them! I am currently working as a doula, I help women around me give birth and take care of their comfort. I provide my assistance to anyone with no judgements.

A little bit about me

My name is Amalia and I have always had a passion for children. I currently work in healthcare but I worked with infants 0-11 months and also toddlers ages 2-4 for 6 years total. I started in an infant room for about 2 years at HK Cubs in Higganum. Where I cared for infant basic needs such as floor time, feeding, diaper changes, meals, and nap time. Same with toddler group. I always enjoyed helping children grow and teaching them basic everyday skills they will need. Also had the pleasure of making a structured schedule and planning activities. Your child safety comes first. If there is a certain way you like things done then that is exactly how things will be done. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to ask me :)
