Lauren W., Child Care in South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Lauren, I am 32 years old. I have lived in various areas around the lake, and am always happy to travel around the lake for the right job. I'm an experienced nanny of 10+ years and will connect you with furthered references if needed! Beyond childcare, my background is in art + mental health. I have worked at therapeutic boarding schools, youth crisis homes, foster care, etc., and have CPR, first-aid and crisis intervention certifications. I enjoy doing crafts and playing outside, but I am truly down for whatever you and your kids are comfortable with. I have the most experience in nanny care with toddlers, and field experience in the aforementioned therapy jobs with young children, preteens/teens. I also have experience with infants and children with special needs. Currently I am only available for part time or one-time jobs, as I am also completing my Masters in Clinical Mental Health and have an accompanying internship. I enjoy nannying for the flexible schedule and experience with kids in a casual setting, as I feel this helps me connect further in my clinical settings. I’m comfortable with any pets, accommodating and flexible to any routines, and would love to get to know you and your family! Please reach out and let me know if you'd like to set up a phone call or FaceTime to chat more! :)

In addition to my nanny experience, I am the founder of my own creative children’s program, Wee Little Arts, which I have built, operated and franchised for many years. Through this program, I designed and led art-based learning experiences for young children, focusing on creativity, sensory exploration, fine motor development, and confidence-building through self-expression. 🎨 Wee Little Arts Program As the creator of Wee Little Arts, I developed a hands-on, process oriented curriculum that introduced children to artistic exploration in a safe, engaging, and joyful environment.
