Ayanna S., Child Care in Descanso, CA 91916 with 4 years of paid experience

My name is Ayanna! I’m currently a college student studying to become an elementary school teacher. I’ve always loved working with children and have years of hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages. As the oldest in a large family, I’ve naturally taken on a leadership role and learned how to keep things fun, safe, and engaging. In addition to babysitting for family, I’ve also cared for children outside of my home, which has helped me build strong communication and caregiving skills. I’m CPR certified and have a valid food handler’s card, so your child’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
