Hi,My name is Yolanda. I have 8 years child care experience and have worked with kids ages 0-16 years of age.I am First aid and CPR certified. I am fully vaccinated too.
I have hands on experience caring for newborns, including feeding, burping, changing diapers, and establishing sleep routines. I’m comfortable preparing bottles, sterilizing equipment, and keeping detailed logs for parents. I also focus on providing a safe, nurturing environment and supporting early development through tummy time and gentle interaction.
I’m skilled in recognizing cues for hunger, tiredness, or discomfort and responding quickly with care. Beyond basic needs, I enjoy bonding with babies through gentle play, singing, and reading.
My experience with toddlers and children includes guiding them through daily routines, from meals and naps to bath and bedtime. I enjoy planning fun, interactive activities that encourage learning, such as puzzles, sensory play, pretend play, taking walks, the park and reading. I also help with homework and school readiness for older kids. I’m patient, creative, and committed to providing a caring environment that helps children feel secure and grow with confidence.
What I love most about Taking care of Kids is that, that’s the only time I can get to be a kid and I believe kids give me new and positive energy everyday. Taking care of kids is the best way to spend my days because kids are pretty awesome, Tiny little humans who are honest, funny, affectionate and help you get out of your head for a while.
Taking care of kids gives me more reason to relive my childhood days because In that way I can get to indulge in movies,books and games I loved as a kid growing up and it gives me more practice to prepare myself for handling my own kids someday.
I love what I do and perform this job with great dedication, commitment and ambition. I know how important it is to provide kids with individual attention therefore I am happy to spend that time with them. The safety and well being of the kids are my priority and my highest bid.
In my spare time I love to read, write, bake, cook, hike, and play sports (Field hockey, swim and volleyball).
Taking care of kids is not easy but it is definitely a great experience to share with them. I promise your kids will be in safe hands and have a ton of fun. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you for considering my application.
