With 8 years of experience, I've gained the skills necessary to provide a nurturing and educational environment for kids of all ages. I've worked as a swim instructor, working with kids of all ages. I was a Troop Leader for scouts, worked as a tutor and mentor for middle and high school students. I have experience babysitting children of all ages, particularly toddlers. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates about their child's day. My educational background includes a degree from UC Berkeley and coursework of early childhood development. I'm CPR-trained and comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children, as well as engaging in arts and crafts activities. I’m also a former swim instructor, so if your child needs swim lessons I’m more than happy to chat about it :)
