Brianna G., Child Care in Bakersfield, CA 93312 with 11 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Bri. I love being a caregiver to children simply because I adore them! I grew up with five siblings so I was always around kids. I'm very motherly and nurturing and always find joy being with children. For the last ten years, I've been professional babysitting for friends and other families. I have experience babysitting all ages - from newborn to young teen. I believe it's important to connect and engage with the children on their level, but also make it fun by doing activities they love. I enjoy going for walks, doing arts and crafts, watching movies, playing toys with them, or whatever else the child has interest in and the parent(s) allow. While I am not fluent in sign language, I know the basic signs that can be taught to a baby/toddler to help ease their frustration of not being able to talk. I've done this with the little girl I currently watch and it has been a tremendous help in knowing what she wants/needs. I am able to provide references upon request! :)
