Meet Calla
- Certified Nursing Assistant
- Comfortable with pets
I moved here last winter to attend WWU. I usually work as a CNA at nursing/rehab facilities. I am CPR and first aid certified, and I have taken a child care course. I've always loved spending time with children. Over the past 6 years I've worked for several families as a nanny and occasional babysitter. I have cared for kids of all ages (including infants). Most of the families I have babysat/nannied for have pets, which is great because I love animals! I'm a positive and imaginative person and I can handle stressful situations and remain calm. I cook, I clean, I change diapers, I help with homework, I build blanket forts, and I make great funny voices when reading stories. It is my goal to make sure your child is happy and well taken care of. I do not currently own my own car
