I am 20 years old and currently a student at CSULB studying to become a veterinarian. I started babysitting when I was around 12 years old and since then have gained experience with kids 0-14 years old. When I was 17 I started working as a counselor at an after school/summer program for elementary school kids; here I learned how to manage 5+ kids with entertaining games, crafts, and activities all while keeping a safe and happy environment. I am patient, kind, and responsible and have a genuine love and appreciation for kids.
Fun, Safe and Engaging Sitter / Buddy / Companion for Kids 3-12yo
I'm an energetic, dependable caregiver who connects naturally with kids, especially boys. I bring the patience and reliability of a seasoned adult with the playfulness of a 'fun uncle.' I keep kids active, engaged and happy through outdoor play, games, homework, activities and outings. With 21 years experience as a coach, mentor, tutor and caregiver, I especially enjoy being a positive male role model for boys--building confidence, curiosity, good habits and fun. I'm UCLA-educated, CPR-certified, and experienced with ASD & ADHD. I'm happy to help with homework, drive to school and activities, play at the park or beach, visit museums, follow family routines, or simply spend time with your children at home. I don't just supervise; I engage with kids, talk and play at their level, and build genuine relationships. My goal is to provide a safe, warm, active presence that children enjoy and parents trust. I value clear communication and hope to become a consistent, long-term family support.
