I am an experienced nanny/tutor looking for caregiving opportunities in the Los Angeles area. I have over 6 years of experience working with children. I started working with pre school and elementary school children at Summer Camps and soon babysat many of the same children outside of camp. I worked my way up from assistant to supervisor at the St. John’s nursery, where I learned and applied up to date child development methods and practices. I also spent a few years teaching Bible school classes for elementary school children; this position involved leading group discussions, arts and crafts, and outdoor activities. In my last two years of high school and first year of college I was a part- time tutor and nanny for two middle school children. I went over their school work, drove them to after school activities, cooked them dinner and cleaned up around the house. I specifically Read more dedicated most of my time helping out one of the kids who had dyslexia and ADHD, preparing and studying with her for exams and practicing reading. When working with children, I ensure kind and respectful communication to elicit positive responses. I create a comfortable environment that encourages children to engage in beneficial risk-taking behavior. And most importantly, I adapt my behavior and responses depending on the best interests of the child at hand. I genuinely love children and find it easy for me to connect with them while also gaining mutual respect from them. While I do not have a CPR certificate at the moment I am more than willing to get certified so that I can begin working for you!
