A lot of my experience comes from taking care of my 3 younger siblings ages 2, 4, and 11. I take care of them often the and know how to navigate hectic situations and have ample knowledge to care for your children. I’m a junior in high school and have learned a lot so wouldn’t mind with occasionally helping out with homework if needed. Although I’m not CPR certified I have taken a professional CPR class through my school and feel equipped enough to handle such situations if ever necessary.

Welcome message:

I am someone who first and foremost values respectful and responsive care as the foundation of effective childcare. No child is the exact same and I recognize the importance of offering care that supports them as the unique and wonderful people they are while they learn and grow. My approach is integrative of the best parts of different methods and tailored based on the unique needs, preferences, and goals of the family I work with. I have many years of experience with infants, toddlers, and school age children both as a nanny and in a daycare environment. Infants and toddlers are my favorite age to work with and where I have the most experience but I enjoy facilitating growth in all ages. Currently, I am working as an infant teacher in a daycare but would prefer to shift back into offering a more attentive and personalized childcare experience to families as a nanny. I know how hard it is to trust someone else with your child and I would be honored to be considered!

I have several years of center based childcare experience consisting of 3 years with an after school program for school age children and 2 years as an infant teacher. Additionally I have 4 years of nanny experience with various ages, primarily infants. Currently I work in an early childhood education center as a lead infant teacher but want to shift back to offering a more individualized and personal approach to childcare that comes with being a nanny. I am studying psychology and early childhood education at Riverside City College.
