Hello! I’m Sany!
I recently moved back [temporarily] to California to sit for the California Bar Exam, and during this transition, I’m grateful for the opportunity to support families in my community as I look to supplement my income during this time. Childcare has been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember. As one of six children and one of eighteen cousins on my father’s side alone, I grew up surrounded by kids of all ages. I helped raise or regularly babysit many of my younger siblings and cousins, which shaped my comfort, patience, and natural connection with children.
I worked extensively with youth. I served as a Youth Services Staffer supporting students in 6th–8th grade, and later became a Teen Youth Coordinator working with ages 13–19. In those roles, I supported academic and personal development, planned programming, supervised groups, and created safe, positive, and inclusive spaces for learning and play.
My most recent caregiving experience comes from working with multiple families throughout Chicago as I prepared to transition back to California. During that period, I cared for children ranging from 6 months to 4 years old, supporting everything from infant routines and early developmental play to toddler activities, social-emotional learning, and structured daily schedules.
In addition to childcare, I have coached youth soccer and softball, which reflects my love of active play, teamwork, and encouragement. Whether a child prefers sports, reading time, crafts, video games, board games, or imaginative play, I adapt easily and meet them where they are. I love being silly, creative, and fully engaged, and I am equally comfortable providing structure and calm when needed.
I hold a Juris Doctor, and my legal training developed strong communication skills, responsibility, judgment, and crisis-management ability - traits that parents value deeply when choosing a caregiver. Preparing for bar admission requires discipline, reliability, and attentiveness, all of which I bring into my work with children.
Above all, I love caregiving because it allows me to build genuine, meaningful connections. I aim to create safe, joyful, and memorable experiences for every child I care for.
I am known in my family as the favorite “fun-tie” — the aunt who brings imagination, warmth, and laughter into the room, and I would be honored to bring that same energy to your family.
