Hello, my name is Isabella Salas. I just turned 18 though I have lots of experience for my age. I recently graduated from Stevenson High School. Throughout high school I worked in a facility for individuals with special needs. I have my CPI, CPR, and First Aid / AED certifications. As well as having taken a week long training course which taught me how to work with individuals with individuals who have special needs along with physical health conditions such as seizures and cerebral palsy. I also can and have administered almost medication if needed (orally & through a g-tube). I love working with kids. I have a 6 year old brother who I adore and take care of almost every day. I help him with his homework, cook for him, and make sure he stays organized/ put together. I also make sure he has the right amount of time Read more for leisure activities such as playing outside, watching movies, arts / crafts, and many other fun things all which I facilitate for him. I am always open to learning new things and am a quick learner. So if needed I can adapt to yours and your child's schedule.

We hired Isabella as a nanny. She worked for us for a week. Left on Friday talking about plans of what she'd do with the kids the next week. She no showed her second week. We called her to find out what happened. She apologized so we decided to give her a second chance and she no showed the the NEXT day despite confirming the night before, again, that she would be there in the morning. Morning arrived at 30 minutes late we called and she clearly was blocking our calls. When we asked for her to return the keys, she claimed her phone battery had died. Full of excuses.
