Hello! Are you looking for an educated nanny or sitter that has a track record of being well-liked and respected, plus prioritizes your kids safety and well-being? Look no more! I've always been gifted with kids, even when it comes to getting them to eat their vegetables, do their homework and go to bed when they want to refuse. This probably stems from a genuine love for children, growing up around weekly family gatherings with younger cousins and older siblings, as well as volunteering with my mom in Sunday School at church. My approach involves applying Dr. Gottman's nonviolent communication practices - being friendly, patient, calm, positive, consistent, and setting proper boundaries. With 8 years of experience as a professional part-time babysitter in the bay area, I've cared for children ranging from infants to middle school age and families with up to three kids. Past responsibilities include getting kids ready Read more for school, successfully transitioning them from activity A to E, transportation, food prep, getting groceries, tutoring, sports and helping with piano practice and Chinese lessons. I also enjoy engaging with them through conversation, bedtime stories, baking and playing games together, spending time at the park or at the library, swimming and mini-golfing. Apart from caring for children, I'm a college graduate in health and exercise science, freelance public relations and media consultant, and CPR-certified.
