A little bit about me

I am a 21-year-old childcare professional with nearly 9 years of experience. My journey began at age 12 when I volunteered in my church’s toddler room, and by 16, I started working at an in-home daycare, where I cared for up to 7 children independently. After the daycare closed, I continued babysitting for several families for approximately three years before moving to California. I have maintained strong relationships with these families.
For the past two years, I have worked at Elevo, an afterschool program where we teach sports and focus on Social Emotional Learning (SEL). The company has provided extensive resources to enhance my skills in helping children understand and manage their emotions. Additionally, I have been nannying for the past 18 months, starting when the child was 6 months old, and he is now almost 2.
As I plan to relocate to San Diego in the coming month, I am seeking a new opportunity in childcare.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Nova, it's a pleasure to meet you!! My ultimate dream is to be a nanny and to be the mentor that I never had growing up. I currently work in childcare as an RBT and have extensive experience working with children ranging from 1-6 years old. My main responsibilities include fostering independence, self-help/play/communication skills, and helping children find their voice. I absolutely adore my job and I hope to settle down with a family so that I can watch their kids grow over time. I have a bubbly, outgoing personality and have been likened to Ms. Rachel (on YouTube) by both families that I have worked with and close friends. I hope that I can work full-time for a kind family some day soon. Thank you for reading!

A little bit about me

As a passionate and enthusiastic childcare provider, I'm eager to contribute to your family's well-being! My journey into childcare began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my knack for nurturing and caring for children.

Patience, creativity, and a friendly demeanor define my approach to childcare. I firmly believe in being present and in open communication with parents, ensuring their peace of mind by providing regular updates about their child's day and promptly addressing any concerns that may arise.

My background includes some college education, and I'm a fluent English speaker. I have my own car, am comfortable with pets, and am happy to assist with tasks like cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping.

What sets me apart is my genuine enthusiasm for engaging children in a variety of fun and educational activities.
