Hi! My name's Lauren, but everyone just calls me Laa. I am a qualified nanny, babysitter, tutor, and preschool teacher with at least 8 years experience under my belt. I am an excellent team player, dependable, optimistic, flexible, reliable, creative, caring, sharp, focused, loving, fun and vibrant. I have my my ECE master teaching permit, CPR and First Aid certification, clean driving record, my own car, TB-tested, live-scan fingerprints, and fantastic childcare and character references. I am 31 years old, married, but no kids yet, and live in Lake Balboa near Encino/Reseda/Van Nuys. I worked as a full-time preschool teacher for 2 years (2012-2014) and have been substitute teaching and nannying since then. My first year at Sinai Temple Preschool, I taught in a Pre-K classroom (4 - 5-year-olds) preparing children for kindergarden. The second year, I held the Outdoor Coordinator position, responsible for all ages in the preschool (2 Read more - 5), the outdoor classroom curriculum and activities. Before teaching, I worked as a nanny for 2 years for a family with children ages 5 and 8. I have experience babysitting children of all ages and am comfortable doing so. For the last two years I have been working for a family in Brentwood, also with 2 boys. I have excellent references from all the families I've worked with. I received my Master Teaching Permit after earning my Early Childhood Education credits at SMC. In 2007, I graduated with a bachelors in screenwriting from Chapman University, with a double-minor in art and psychology. My background in art and psychology is beneficial for my work with children. I am highly creative and enjoy coming up with fun artistic projects with children. My interests include sports, outdoors, being active, laughing, learning, reading, writing, filmmaking, traveling, painting, hiking, photography, comedy, scuba diving, video games, camping and more.
