Hello parents! My name is Erika and I hope that I can be the best sitter for you! I've been babysitting since I was a junior in high school, and I'm currently a junior at San Jose State. I love being a babysitter because engaging with kids is one of most rewarding experiences. You get to see them grow and develop and understand that way things work! They have the silliest imagination and give you a break from the scary reality of being an adult. I am also a tutor, I've tutored kids as young as 5 years old and as old as high schoolers! I'm a nursing student as well, so I believe that I have a more compassionate approach than most. I also have some life saving skills that I pray never to use during my time with you guys, but am always ready!
