Santa Monica, CA

Hello, my name is Kobi. I am a young energetic man who has been in the childcare field for over 4+ years now. Most of my experience is primarily as an assistant teacher in preschools and daycares, though I have also worked in summer camp positions, as well as currently being an on call babysitter for the same family for the past two years. I would say my strongest skills are my ability to be an effective communicator, my genuine kindness and compassion, a knack for being silly and fun yet being stern simultaneously, and most importantly being very affectionate. I am looking forward to hopefully hearing from you, and I appreciate your time.
