Working with children and families has always been something I genuinely love and hope to continue building my career around. I have 21 units of Early Childhood Education and professional experience working in preschools as both an Assistant Teacher and Lead Teacher. I’ve also been babysitting since high school and throughout my college years. Growing up in a large family surrounded by nieces, nephews, and lots of little ones, I’ve always felt comfortable around children and truly enjoy being part of their world; their energy, curiosity, creativity, and excitement. I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Communication and a minor in Child Development. After college, I also gained administrative and professional work experience, which has strengthened my organization, communication, and reliability. Whether you’re looking for regular childcare, occasional babysitting, date-night coverage, or an extra set of hands around the house, I’m happy to help! I can also assist with errands, household tasks, or business-related errands when needed. I’m very comfortable commuting between different cities and have experience regularly driving to and from various locations for work and childcare. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to travel for the right family and opportunity. I understand that flexibility with location can be important for families, and I’m comfortable building that into my availability. I’m dependable, caring, patient, and genuinely enjoy getting to know the families I work with. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. If you’d like a copy of my resume or have any questions, I’d be happy to share it. 😊

Able to travel during the summer — June and July I currently work as a Bilingual Paraprofessional in Special Education and am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) at a high school, supporting students with diverse learning and behavioral needs.
