Her childcare journey began at age twelve, when she started babysitting for families in her community—an experience that helped her build long-lasting, trusted relationships. She also provided low-cost tutoring to children who needed extra academic support, further strengthening her passion for individualized care. At seventeen, Rebecca began working at a local Montessori school with children ages 2–6, quickly growing into the role of Lead Teacher and managing her own classroom of toddlers and preschoolers. After five years, she opened her own Montessori program serving children from 6 months to 6 years old, giving her deep, hands-on experience with infant through early-childhood developmental stages. Rebecca attended UCLA, where she earned her Certificate in Early Childhood Education, and she is internationally recognized as a Montessori educator for ages 0–3 and 3–6 through the North American Montessori Center. She later graduated with honors from the University of Arizona with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education Administration. In addition to her broad teaching and caregiving experience, Rebecca has worked closely with children with both diagnosed and suspected Autism Spectrum Disorder. She specializes in recognizing early signs of cognitive, behavioral, and speech delays and collaborates with the Frank D. Lanterman Regional Center to help families access the services they need. Today, Rebecca brings her expertise, calm presence, and genuine love for children into the homes of families seeking a dependable, highly qualified babysitter. With strong communication skills, extensive developmental knowledge, and nearly two decades of childcare experience, she strives to create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for every child in her care. **Willing to share my recent Yelp Reviews!**
