Hello! My name is Natalie… A college-educated and highly experienced caregiver, residing in Los Angeles. I have always had a love for children. Throughout life, I‘ve built a reputable character as a responsible, active, compassionate, flexible, and open-minded sitter/ nanny/ AuPair. Many years of childcare experience under my belt, with all ages (4 mo. to 18 years). I have experience with special needs children and multiples (I'm a twin myself). I also have CPR, AED & First Aid certifications. My childcare-related jobs have included: Live-in AuPair/ Nanny - Gold Coast, Australia (1 year abroad); Babysitter - All ages (7+ years); Children's Dance, Gymnastics, Cheerleading, Sports, and Karate instructor – Infant/ Pre-K/ GS (4 yrs); Assistant Preschool Teacher - Infant/ Pre-K (1 year); Camp Counselor - All ages; Lifeguard - All ages. I hold strongly to the importance of family. It is my goal to create trusting, professional relationships, and maintain Read more honest, open communication. My biggest priority when providing care for others is safety. I have the ability to stay calm, and think mindfully under stressful situations. Will do whatever it takes to ensure that your house runs smoothly. I am very responsible, but also enjoy being silly with little ones! The arts have always been a big part of my life, so I absolutely love getting creative and collaborating with kiddos. Playing games, puzzles, role play / dress up, (encourage the use of imagination), draw/color, paint (encourage expression), be active (swim, ride bikes, teach dance, gymnastics, sports, etc.), bake and cook with children. I also enjoy learning from children of all ages. I believe that interactive learning is key to a child's growth and confidence. Hoping to start asap, but am flexible for the right family. Looking forward! Cheers, Natalie
