Based in Merced! My two years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 11yrs old have solidified my desire to support families. I am patient, friendly, and comfortable enforcing household rules. I offer verbal updates at pickup, and I'm happy to communicate through text or phone calls, following your preferred method. I love playing outdoor sports, educational games, and even some technology-based games with kids. I hold First Aid Training and CPR Training certifications. I'm comfortable with pets and willing to help with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, and swimming supervision. With my college degree, I'm confident in my ability to care for up to three children.

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!
