A little bit about me

Hi! I have worked in differing childcare settings for around 5 years now. I am currently in college studying social and behavioral science. I have amazing reviews available upon request. I’m CPR certified and hold my ECE credits. I completed my observation hours at a preschool with an outdoor classroom that focuses on science, nature, and play. I have worked with kids of all ages as young as 6 weeks old and as old as 14 years old. I also have experience with special needs children and twins. I love spending time outside, going on walks, doing crafts, and science projects! I am looking for either a temp gig, a date night sitter, a part-time gig, or as-needed. I have a ton of experience with new parents and I totally get how uncomfortable it is to go out for the first time so I am happy to relieve any anxieties with extra introductions and sending updates throughout our time together. I also have a clean driving record and am happy to provide you with my background check upon request.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I began my journey working with children by volunteering at a preschool one summer when I was younger and it was such a rewarding experience! After that, I enjoyed being a camp counselor for a few summers. Now, I’m working at an Elementary school in the afterschool program for Kindergarteners. Before this, I worked at the YMCA and LA Fitness childcare center.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I really enjoy keeping kids busy in fun, relaxed ways that still support their development. I love doing monthly themed crafts and science experiments. I also enjoy getting outside when we can, going on walks, playing at the park, or finding a fun kid-friendly activity. I’m big on following the child’s interests and needs, whether that’s music, puzzles, sensory activities, or quiet play. I like creating a good balance between structured activities and free play so kids feel comfortable, engaged, and free to be themselves while still having a routine. I’m also available for homework help or teach basic ASL signs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is building trust and creating a safe environment where children feel understood and safe. I believe being patient, attentive, and consistent is just as important.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience with several children on the spectrum with varying needs and abilities.

I’m interested in becoming a babysitter as a side hustle because I genuinely enjoy working with children and already have a lot of experience caring for younger family members. I’ve grown up around many younger cousins and I also help take care of my 6-year-old sister, so I’m used to keeping kids entertained, safe, and comfortable. Babysitting feels like a natural fit for me, and I’d love the chance to support families who need an extra hand.
