I am a student at Merced community college. I am patient and calm person. I love spending time with kids because they are adorable, funny and energetic. They give me a lot of energy and help me to understand humanity. I have 2 years experiences with newborn, infant, toddlers, and kids. I took care of everything about kids; cooked and prepared meals, did laundry, cleaned, played with them, drove them to park and library and organized all of kids' stuffs.

Knowing everyday is different and being able to implement my knowledge and/or learn more skills. It is important for a child to have a strong support system and someone who is willing to understand their emotions and needs, but also have the guidance necessary and be accountable. I have been working with and babysitting children newborn-14 years old. My babysitting has been with children from friends or family, and I also work at a school district as an instructional aide for general, and special needs students, grades preschool-8th. I was a PAL in high school as my elective class. I also volunteered two summers at the Boys and Girls Club of Merced during high school, and that was grades 1st-8th. I am able to help with homework, cook (specific) meals, run errands, clean, and physical activities. Those are just a few of the things I can do to ensure I help and support the child(ren), and your family, hopefully giving an ease of mind. I am able to accommodate a specific list if given as well. I love and enjoy the bonds I have made with all the children I have had the honor to work with and get to know. I also have children of my own, as a single parent I understand that it takes a village. I am CPR/AED certified, and can provide proof. I can also provide proof of my current employer and what I do on a daily basis. I am open to adjusting my availability based on your needs, I would just like open communication and able to discuss it beforehand. Thank you, and I look forward to our future!

I have always love babies. After working for a year in a homedaycare I have helped families in particular. I love reading children books and go for walks. Another thing that I enjoy is making baby food. I just love to see babies smile. I have the patience plus I keep on track of everything related to the baby
