Hi! I am 24 years old and I have been a certified babysitter for 13 years, was a camp counselor for 7 summers for kids ages 4-13, and I have been a nanny/household manager for the past 2 years. I am CPR/First aid certified for both adults and children and have experience working with challenging kids and kids with special needs (Down's Syndrome, ADHD, autism, anxiety, ODD). I am a Registered Behavior Therapist and have 1 year of experience doing trauma-informed applied behavioral therapy with autistic children. I have a psychology degree from UC Davis and took child development courses, which, along with my extensive hands-on childcare experience, has greatly informed my parenting philosophies. I practice authoritative (not authoritarian), gentle, and attachment parenting and encourage autonomy, independence, confidence, emotional expression and regulation. I love playing indoor and outdoor games with kids and helping with homework and I love to cook Read more and do arts and crafts. I also love animals and am willing to do light child-related housework. I can send my formal resumé upon request. Please feel free to message me if you think we’d be a good fit! ***Potty trained kids only***

Mitra has been my pet sitter for months now and she is truly incredible! I know that my cat is in the best hands when it comes to care. My fur baby occasionally has health problems and Mitra is always so prompt to offer updates and check ins. I couldn't recommend her more to take care of your fur baby!
