Here for all you sitting and nanny needs

There's something truly special about the laughter of children and the sparkle in their eyes. I adore babies and kids for their endless energy and pure curiosity. Each giggle and coo reminds me to appreciate the simple joys in life.

Engaging with them is an absolute delight. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or exploring together, every moment is a chance to create lasting memories. I love seeing their faces light up when they learn something new.

Teaching them is a true privilege. I cherish nurturing their curiosity and imagination. Watching them grow and discover the world is amazing. From their first words to their endless questions, every step is filled with potential.

In these moments, I see a bright future ahead. My love for babies and kids inspires me to be a better person, to show them the joy of learning, and to it motivates and inspires me to be a better person.

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.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Daycare Provider

Follow these handy tips for hiring a private pet daycare provider so your furry friend gets the best care while you’re away.

1. Check Experience with Your Pet Type

Ask about their background caring for dogs, cats, or other pets. Make sure they understand breed-specific needs, temperaments, and behaviors.

2. Verify Training & Certifications

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, animal handling training, or professional memberships in pet care associations.

3. Tour the Facility or Home

Visit the daycare space to check for cleanliness, safety measures, secure fencing, and pet-friendly areas.

4. Ask About Daily Routine

Find out what a typical day looks like—exercise, playtime, feeding, rest, and socialization opportunities.

5. Understand Supervision Levels

Confirm how many pets they care for at once and whether constant supervision is provided, especially during group play.

6. Review Health & Safety Policies

Ask about vaccination requirements, flea/tick prevention, emergency plans, and how illnesses or injuries are handled.

7. Check References & Reviews

Speak with past or current clients, and ask for customer reviews to ensure reliability and positive experiences.

8. Clarify Communication

Ask how they’ll keep you updated—daily texts, photos, or reports—so you know your pet is happy and safe.

9. Discuss Rates & Inclusions

Make sure you understand the cost, what’s included (walks, grooming, food), and if there are extra fees for late pickup or special care.

Start with a short daycare session to see how your pet adjusts, and gauge the provider’s attentiveness and professionalism.
