Meet Angelina

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hello :)!! My name is Angelina and I'm hopeful I'll get to know you and your child more in the future but for now I'll try my best to make you comfortable with words. People very often describe me as a big kid. I love to laugh, I'm always smiling and making sure everyone around me feels the same. Children and infants find a sense of safety and security around me. I'm incredibly patient and easy to communicate with. I worked with mentally ill adults for some time and all would agree that I have a very natural instinct when it comes to providing care. I'm very big on driving and the safety of passengers, I have a near perfect driving record (parking tickets ruin the allusion of perfect lol) I like to be clear, concise, and on time with things such as appointments, homework, sleep schedules, feeding times, all Read more things necessary for a child really. Working with children has taught me that you must be punctual in order to have a routine. In my opinion, having a routine for a baby/toddler is of the utmost importance. It makes their lives easy going and fun. My favorite thing to do is talk to kids, I feel like there's so much going on in their minds and they need to let it out just like adults do! Even infants have the power of communication through hand signals, learning to use their muscles in their face to express emotions, it's all so fascinating. Using different toys with shapes, colors, and even words help so much with infant development such as speech, mobility, and the ability to retain information. I'm a very physical person, I like to be outside, in general just to move around a lot. I actually just started a new journey in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai and its quite intense. I was worried because I've had some injuries in the past that required physical therapy but the exercises helped and taught me so much. They make great use to helping infants and toddlers learn their strengths and abilities and I'm confident that I could utilize them in day to day activities. I have an open availability for Monday through Friday. I can make myself available for evenings as well upon request. The same goes for weekends as well, I'm very open to working hard on making sure you're children receive the best, most loving care that I can provide. Whatever you need from me I will be able to provide. Looking forward to hearing from you. Have a blessed day.
