Hello I'm Camilla, I am someone who deeply cares for infants and prioritize safety and well being, especially for first time parents. I help parents prepare safe, baby ready homes and recommend essential products and developmental toys. I am very conscious about maintaining proper hygiene before caring for infants and always wash my hands thoroughly. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their baby’s safety. so I take every precaution to ensure a clean and nurturing environment. With a background in nursing and music, my nurturing embraces children as early as infancy through singing and imaginative play. It is incredibly rewarding to see delicate expressions of comfort when babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers singing my songs to becoming fully engaged when I read to them. In my spare time, I channel my creativity into writing stories, composing songs that support developmental milestones, and creating educational videos for children. Music is just one of my supportive tools to soothe and stimulate infants as well as help toddlers and young children navigate challenges like understanding boundaries, learning new skills, and facing moments of frustration. I focus on building safety awareness, self esteem, and independence whether through songs that make clean up time fun or original music that encourages them not to give up when something feels hard. By including children’s individual interests, it allows me to build a stronger connection and relationship and spark curiosity. I am confident in providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be both reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and bring both creativity and energy to my work with children of all ages through music. I have a true passion for teaching. After earning my Associate’s degree, I began working toward my Bachelor’s degree, building on a background that includes Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy. CPR certified and first aid certified. I stay up to date on flu shots and vaccinations. As someone who enjoys healthy eating, I’ve learned that even with fussy eaters, healthy habits can still be encouraged by turning new foods into something fun to try. I am available for both full time and part time caregiving roles, including as a mother’s helper and date nights. I am comfortable with pets and have energy to keep up with growing little ones!

I am an individual with over eight years of experience in child care and also with older adults with intellectual disabilities. I am currently completing three years of work specifically with adults with intellectual disabilities, where I am dedicated to teaching how to become more independent. For example, I am committed to helping individuals learn how to obtain and maintain a job, complete volunteer hours, improve their educational skills, and maintain good personal presentation. I am also responsible for transporting individuals in my personal vehicle. One of my favorite parts of the job is actively participating in daily activities, like playing with infants, teaching them to speak their first words, or guiding them during mealtime routines. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I am friendly, reliable, and passionate about building strong connections with both children and adults. I am currently available in the afternoons and on weekends. Communication is very important to me, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to request references or to schedule a call. I am excited to continue sharing my passion and positive attitude with families, something that has brought me years of rewarding experiences.
