I am 21 and I would describe myself as someone who is very patient and loving especially with kids. I have been taking child development related classes since my junior year of high school and am still continuing that now in college. I am currently at a community college working on getting me GE classes done and a certificate in education as my major is Early childhood education. I have been babysitting kids since I was about 16 years old and still continue to do so. I am currently working at a preschool specifically with the 1 year old class and before this I was working with the company Think Together where I was watching middle schoolers as well as elementary kids on occasion.

I am a passionate and dependable caregiver with extensive babysitting and nanny experience and a genuine love for working with children. I have hands-on experience nannying twins, which has strengthened my ability to stay organized, patient, and attentive while meeting the needs of more than one child. I also have experience caring for children ranging from infants to school-aged, supporting daily routines, playtime, and learning activities.I thrive on creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children can explore, learn, and feel supported. I value open communication with parents and take pride in being reliable, respectful, and adaptable to each family's routines and parenting style

Taking care of others has always been second nature to me, and I feel so lucky to do that through childcare. I have a rich background in childcare, with multiple years of experience as both a paid and volunteer nanny. Before transitioning to full-time nanny work, I started part-time with my first family, spending two years caring for a family of four-including premature twins with medical needs, a 10-year-old, and a 3-year-old. I provided everything from daily care to emergency support, traveled with the family, and navigated medical appointments. Beyond nannying, l've worked as a lifeguard at birthday parties, cared for special needs children and adults, and even volunteered at preschools before I was of legal working age. These experiences have given me not only hands-on childcare skills but also a deep understanding of child development and special needs care. I recently moved from California to Oregon and am looking to connect with a family that values kindness, creativity, and a nurturing presence. When I'm not working, you'll usually find me painting at my easel or rock climbing to stay active. I believe in finding joy in the little things— whether it's a morning coffee or a sweet, silly moment with a child. I'm committed to providing loving, reliable, and enriching care to every family I work with and am always eager to continue learning and growing in my role as a caregiver.
