I have over five years of experience working with children through both babysitting and classroom settings. I started as a babysitter, caring for children of various ages, which helped me develop strong skills in creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments. In addition, I worked in an elementary school where I assisted in a two-year-old classroom. There, I supported daily activities, helped with learning routines, and encouraged social and emotional development.

While nannying I also did household chores like dishes, laundry, cleaning the floors, and making food for the children. I work as a surf instructor at a kids camp working with up to 28 kids ages 6-14 which allows me to have experience with many age ranges while working in a higher stress environment with children.

I enjoy caregiving because I like creating a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for children and pets. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure.
