A little bit about me

Working with children is an adventure, and I love to experience the world through their eyes! I have one child of my own, and have been babysitting for family, friends, and coworkers for the occasional date night or weekend getaway for the last three years. I am currently working full time, am looking for a career change, and would love to nanny full time! I am a certified medical assistant, have my CPR certificate and am trained in basic first aid. I have also taken multiple child development and psychology courses at Sacramento City College as part of my general education coursework. I am passionate about raising children and would love to pursue this passion as a career.

A little bit about me

Have you ever wished there was a family member or maybe a older reliable neighbor like Dennis the Menace had to watch your kids? I’m pretty much that person. I’m not your typical nanny/sitter in that I have years of experience behind me as a babysitter, caregiver and nanny. Those are just a few of the “hats” I have worn over the years. I have a wealth of knowledge and the maturity to always strive to be that “one step ahead”.
Let me go back a few years and give you a brief history about myself. I was the baby of three kids which meant I had to hit up the neighborhood so that I could babysit. I did that most weekends and a lot of summers, minus one summer due to being a junior counselor at a summer camp. After graduating high school I enrolled in college with a liberal studies/music major so that I could become a teacher. Three years of college and one year of marriage my husband and I discovered I was pregnant. Let’s just say life happened and I soon became a single mom. Foolishly I never returned to school. Years flew by consumed with birthdays, school, hockey, soccer, guitar, sleepovers and more. My house became the home for many teenage boys congregated at causing me to restock my extra freezer every other weekend. Fast forward many more years and I am a proud nanny to two wonderful grandkids.

I have always enjoyed being around kids of all ages. I came from a generation that babysitting wasn’t just caring for the child. Once kids were fed and bathed and lay down for the night I made sure dishes were washed and put away, laundry was the least folded and put into piles and the house itself was tidied up before the parents returned home. The more I am able to help you gives you that much more time you can spend with your kiddos. They say it takes a village to raise a child, I’m right here and ready to help . I hope I get a chance to speak with you and see if we might be a good fit for each other. In the meantime have a fabulous day!

A little bit about me

I have extensive experience as a caregiver and educator, developed through years of working with children, teens. In college, I babysat regularly in the Danville/Alamo area.

Currently, I’m a high school counselor in Sacramento, providing academic, emotional, and social guidance. I have additional experience as a private college readiness counselor, helping students navigate the college application process. Previously, I worked as a K-12 substitute teacher, gaining experience across all age groups.
I’m bilingual, dependable, and bring a thoughtful yet playful approach. From building LEGO creations to offering teens academic support, I foster trust and connection. With strong references, I’m committed to using this opportunity to pay down graduate school debt.
