Hello everyone! My name is Mina and I'm currently a microbiology student in my last year of college. I have many passions, including baking, animals, ceramics, movies, and indoor rock climbing. Having been a child who needed more time to feel understood, I bring a patient and understanding approach in caregiving. ​I believe in working as a team with parents and aim to offer a fun, safe, and attentive environment where your child can thrive.

Booked by 16 families in South El Monte, CA

I am Howard University alumnae. I love having an active lifestyle. I’ve been babysitting for the past fourteen years. I teach children from 2-18 years old how to play golf. I love to complete puzzles, play outside, and play with toys. When it comes to deciding one over the other, I would much rather read to your children than have them stare at a television screen. I believe children learn better when they are less reliant on technology for entertainment.

Ih she's wonderful! Good energy, on time, great communication. My kid just laughed and laughed! She plays well with the kids. So glad to have found her.
