I’m a warm, creative, playful and dependable caregiver with 15+ years of childcare experience with children of all ages, from newborns and toddlers to teens. I currently babysit for several wonderful families on the Westside and have experience with infant care, diaper changes, bottles, naps, bedtime routines, potty training, light meal prep, swimming and outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and imaginative play. I have a BA in Theatre from UCLA and a background in comedy, so creativity and play come naturally to me! I’m also an animal lover, have a clean driving record and safe car, and am happy to help with light household tasks related to the children. Most importantly, I strive to create an environment where kids feel safe, cared for, comfortable, and have fun!
