Natalie S., Child Care in Shafter, CA 93263 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello, I am currently searching for extra work and am very flexible. Date nights? Weekly? Multiple days? On ocassion? Open to most situations. A little bit about myself first, In 2019 I graduated with my Elementary Education Degree from University of Northern Iowa. I moved to Bakersfield California late 2020 working many nanny gigs due to covid preventing children to attend school in person. During my time in Bakersfield I had also worked as an aide in a kindergarten classroom. This is one of many in classroom experiences I have as well as working summer camps, being on site supervisor for afterschool programs, and the many nanny gigs inbetween with kids ranging anywhere from infant to junior high school. I have recently moved back to the quad cities and am now searching for jobs in my hometown area as I am back and eager to work. I try to always work with a positive attitude and believe being hands on with a child is the best approach to build those positive connections through childs interest of games, activities, crafts, or whatever it may be to fit their needs. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to see if I make a good fit for your family!
