I am 22 years old with almost 16 years of experience in care (child, adult, pets). I grew up in a household in which we value the meaning of, “It takes a village.” Therefore I was about 6 years old when I began taking care of my younger cousins, and this carried throughout highschool, and my roles eventually evolved. Funny and lucky enough it came naturally, and so I stuck with it. I have taken care of newborns to senior adults. I believe my caregiving has been full of bliss simply because I like to carry myself with the same attitude through and through. With patients, kindness, compassion, and entertainment! It's all about learning the individual, and having structure, consistency. I would love to get the opportunity to describe myself a bit more based on the task I will be performing. Ensuring the best outcome. In addition to having a household full of children and elders, of course pets came with it! That being said I have also had the chance to train and care for several pets along the way. From chihuahuas to german shepherds, to farm animals. (You might have guessed it, my household is mexican. Which might explain things a bit more.)

I have two younger brothers who are 9 and 11 who I’ve babysat for years, along with various other preschool, elementary, and middle school aged children and siblings. I recently graduated college with a psychology degree where I was fortunate to learn a lot of about child development as well! I love art, music, and sports, so I can help keep your youngster entertained! I am happy to take on other tasks such as prepping meals, cleaning, transportation, and animal care. I can also help with bedtime routines and stay late or overnight if needed. I am currently a nanny/house helper from 1:30-5:30 M-F for a San Carlos family with a 3, 6, and 8 year old, so I am available outside that time block. I look forward to hearing from you!
