As a babysitter, au pair, and former preschool teacher, I work to help parents take care and raise their child(ren) to be well-behaved young people. I promote language development skills through reading and storytelling, and respectful behavior through positive reinforcement. I am currently graduating from University of Nevada, Reno finishing with a Bachelors degree in Business. I also have an Associates degree in Art, completed in conjunction through the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, and Western Nevada College in Carson City. I love being outdoors and using imagination as a vessel to develop games and activities for, and with, your child(ren). I have a high priority of displaying and appreciating manners and etiquette. I grew up the middle child of three; creating, learning, imagining, and developing beneficial life long habits, which is what I would do for your child(ren). I make sure to add in a playful solution Read more to complete everyday tasks, for your child(ren) and me to bond over. I can further negotiate an equal rate and certain ‘unavailable’ times and days for your needs.
