I've been babysitting since I was 11 years old. Well, that's when I started getting paid. The 90's were a little different! I love working with children no matter their medical or familial situations. Children are our future. I love teaching & learning from them as well. I used to run an at home daycare decades ago & loved creating lesson plans. I worked with children who were homeschooled & helped the ones that weren't with their homework, all ages. I was a medic in the Army & work well in hectic, crisis, & calming situations. My training taught me to be calm in the storm, to react fast to situations that happen, & approach each situation tailored to family beliefs & the child's personality. I do believe in positivity & maintaining a healthy mental status for children. I do love working with parents & learning their parent style. I respect each family's way of choosing to raise their children & never plan to overstep. I look forward to working with whoever chooses me. Thank you for reading.

Hello! My name is Runa, I believe that caring for a child is one of the greatest honors. It's a role that fills me with happiness and provides a genuine wonder for the world. I approach childcare with a philosophy of mutual learning, knowing that children are not just students, but also incredible teachers. I have a background in both group and individual care. I previously worked in a gym daycare, caring for a wide age range of children, from infants as young as 6 months to pre-teens. My most recent experience has been as a live-in nanny for a wonderful baby, where I lived in a separate unit connected to the main house by a breezeway. This long-term, one-on-one experience has been a true delight and has deepened my skills in infant care. Beyond my passion for childcare, I am a dedicated professional who owns and operates a health and wellness business and a non-profit. I am deeply committed to helping others on their personal journeys. I look forward to connecting with a family who values a dedicated and well-rounded caregiver.

I love working and supervising children because they are our future in our lives. I left my previous child care job of 5 years to finish college. My top priority is providing a safe, interactive, and fun environment. In regards to my experience with child care, I was able to help children solve problems on the playgrounds, such as sharing and making new friends when they felt left out. I would even play with a few of the children who were new to the school and who had a hard time socializing with others their own age. I am First Aid and CPR Certified by the American Red Cross. I have experience with housekeeping/cooking and I am willing to add that to part of my sitter job. I am willing to provide homework help with children as well and be there by helping them solve their homework tasks. I am a future teacher and I have an English Degree from Cal State Fullerton. In addition, I am able to provide some transportation, for example, I am available to become a part of the drop off and pick up routines from schools/daycares. I am passionate about helping those around me and I would love to make a positive impact in the lives of the new individuals I meet.
