Hi! My name is Gianna and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter who loves working with kids. I enjoy being a sitter because I like creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where children can play, learn, and feel comfortable. I have experience working with children at a summer camp as well as babysitting, which has helped me learn how to manage groups of kids, keep them engaged in activities, and make sure everyone stays safe and included. I’m patient, reliable, and enjoy planning fun things like games, crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m responsible, organized, and a good communicator, and I always make safety a top priority while following parents’ routines and instructions. My goal is to create a safe and fun environment that both kids and parents can feel confident about.

I am a 21 yo college student studying mathematics at Cal Poly, SLO! I have been nannying kids of all ages and many neurotypes for years. I love to provide a compassionate environment and adapt to your child's needs. I am prepared to clean, help with homework (especially math!), drive, and ensure the kids are comfortable, enjoying themselves, and set up for success.

I am 25 and have grown up with child care experience. I am the oldest of seven children, the youngest of whom is a four-year old boy. Growing up, I took care of my siblings while my mom worked jobs to support us. I highly respect a busy working mother. My siblings were of all ages and I learned skills of adaptability, patience, good judgement, and self-motivation. I helped take care of the house and entertained my siblings when we weren’t in school. I was highly motivated in high school and I also played tennis! I graduated from CSU-Monterey Bay in California with a B.A. in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Education. I am very passionate about getting myself and young people outside and interested in science and the natural sciences particularly. I learned how to teach students using experience-based learning and open-ended questions. While in undergraduate school and after graduation I taught in a before (6-10am) and after school program (2-7pm) for children of people who work in agriculture for four years. I worked alone with ~10 kids with a range of ages 5-12 in a class. I had to use strong problem skills, creative quick thinking, and self-management to support their success academically, emotionally, and socially. My style is balancing age appropriate conversation and treating them as adults/their own individual person. I believe in inspiring self-responsibility and motivation through incentives and having a positive relationship with the child while also communicating strengths or needs for support with the parent(s). I created daily activities myself or asked the kids to choose a range of activities (puzzles, coloring, computer school games, homework help, crafts, card games), encouraged outside activities (basketball, versions of tag, laying in the grass listening to music) and participated in general conversation with kids of all ages. Pre-COVID19 I brought them to outdoor field trips and nature walks. During the pandemic my main goal was to keep them emotionally regulated and as motivated in school as possible. Other skills that are worth noting for supporting child success is I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I was CPR certified but will need to renew it as it expired this year. I also have a clean driving record but I have moved from California and will need to get a New York Driving License. Thank you, Jasmin Gonzalez

I love working with young children. Preschool aged children specifically. I've worked with preschoolers and toddlers for 7 months. I love to play, help, and do whatever the child wants to do. I'm good at organizing, cleaning, and providing care to a child. I also enjoy going to places where I can take the child or children to play, eat, or explore. I've only had experience working with children for 7 months. I'm still new and learning how to be someone who works with children. I did complete all Early Childhood Classes at Allan Hancock College back in December. My goal is to make sure the child or children I’m with are safe, healthy, and happy. I also want to make sure they have the best day possible. I will send you my full schedule for you once you send me a message. I’ll also ask questions as we make it work. I look forward to babysitting your child and making great memories with them!
