Meet college nannies and sitters from California State University - Sacramento

Hi there! My background in education is geared toward the biological sciences, with a double major in microbiology and CLS and prior education in pre-nursing/allied health, so I have a solid understanding of the importance of maintaining a clean enviroment, child development, and eating a well-rounded diet. Over the past two years, I have worked with many families, including my own. I have the most experience with kids ages 2 to 7, and activities I am familiar with include taking them to swim lessons, working in co-op preschools, helping with words/ABCs, feeding, meal prep, and potty training. Although I have less experience with infants, I am very adaptable and willing to learn. I enjoy caregiving because I feel like the world can be so harsh and serious, and that children bring joy and silliness that we, adults, can forget about! I believe children are our greatest teachers, and I hope not only to learn from them but also to create an environment of empathy, understanding, and, as always, boundaries. I am currently learning Spanish (A1) and would love to work with a bilingual family so I can reach a conversational level. I love doing Sudoku and learning new things. The new hobbies that I have just taken on are metal detecting and Magic: The Gathering.

I am an older sister so growing up I would act as the second mom and be very protective over my little sister. In general growing up I was always one of the oldest kids with family friends and just family in general. I was raised surrounded by kids and that is really where I grew the love for them and especially the patience for them. I am such a happy fun, loving and loud person to where I keep the kids entertained or if they get bored I just make up random games on the spot and have some fun. In my first 3 years of high school I coached one of the local youth cheer teams. I worked with ages 4-12 in this role. This past summer before I moved here for school and now I am a seasonal worker I am an employee at Carmel Valley Ranch. I work at the kids camp there. It basically is a everyday day care center where it is a play room where we do crafts, read books, play games, and take the kids outside to enjoy the fresh air. With this and young kids having fun we do clean up the room a good amount of times during the day. With being surrounded by kids through out my whole life I am not studying to go into education for the ages 1st-3rd.
