My name is Ashley and I have been working with children from infants to school age for the past 15 years as a preschool teacher. I have an AA in Early Childhood Education and have First Aid/CPR training. I currently work as a nutrition and breastfeeding counselor on weekdays. I love kids and I have always had a passion for education. I decided I wanted to be a teacher when I was 5 years old. I’m a big kid at heart so I love making up silly songs and being playful. I am a mom to three daughters. In my spare time I like to knit, crochet and write poetry. Starting rate for 5yrs+ $22 3.5 - 5yrs $23 2 - 3.5yrs $24 1 - 2yrs $25 Under 1 $26 *Each additional child will be +$4 **Rates may vary by case or be based on needs of the child. ***Cancellation Policy*** I require at least 24 hours notice for cancellations. Less than 24 hours notice will be charged 50% of booking rate. You may reschedule your booking with no cancellation penalty, subject to availability. ***Interview Policy*** At this time, I am only offering phone or virtual interviews. If you prefer an in person interview, I would need to be paid for my time. With Love, Ashley :)

“Ashley is a phenomenal educator and caregiver. She cares for our girls and we were blown away by her focus on not just caring for our girls but developing them by creating a needs based plan customised to their stage of development. Our little girl went from saying very little to speaking and communicating her needs effectively after just one week with Ashley. We especially value Ashley taking the time to observe our kiddos and apply her experience as an educator to let us know what’s normal during this stage of development. Her approach is nurturing and her calm demeanour has helped our kiddo develop tools to address challenging tasks. She also brings a calm presence to the house. Ashley is extremely organized and provides a helping hand. She’s communicative, punctual, and extremely reliable.”

Hi there! I am 24 years old, and recently moved from NYC to LA to work at UCLA. I am a Staff Research Associate at a developmental neuroscience lab working on an important childhood development study. A huge part of my job involves working with infants, from newborn to 2 years old. I am looking for some babysitting jobs to fill my free time, and would love to help out your family! During my undergraduate years at Barnard College, | studied psychology, with a focus in childhood development. I worked in the Barnard Center for Toddler Development as a teacher for 12 2-year-olds. I have an extensive background in developmental psychology coursework, including Infant Development and Atypical Development. During the summers, I work as a head counselor and program coordinator at a sleep away camp for ages 8-17. I love cooking, and planning activities for children to do after school.

“Amazing! Punctual and communicative throughout the day. My daughter loves her and can’t wait for their next hang out. Highly recommend.”
