Hi my name is Ava, I’m a 20 year old College Student. I have been babysitting for over 2 years and absolutely love it! I also teach swim lessons to kids (ages 3-12) so I know what it takes to build a fun and safe environment anywhere. I pride myself on being structured and always being a friendly face and/or a listening ear. I have experience with taking care of infants/newborns as well as toddlers to preteens. I try my hardest to stay away from screen time when I’m sitting, instead i focus on getting the kids outdoors or even doing creative projects in doors. I love to cook so I can be of great use in the kitchen :) Safety is my number one priority, my certifications include first aid and CPR (infant/adult)!

I've had years of hands-on childcare experience, mainly with my two younger sisters. Even though it wasn’t a formal job at first, I treated it like one because I took it seriously. I’ve helped raise them since they were little—cooking meals, getting them ready for school, helping with homework, teaching them how to clean up after themselves, and keeping them entertained. On top of that, I’ve volunteered to babysit for family friends and during church events. I'm really patient, and I know how to keep kids safe, engaged, and happy. It’s second nature to me now, and I genuinely enjoy being that steady, supportive person in a child’s life.

My passion is working with children/families to build relationships. I have a Masters Degree in Education with over 20 years teaching experience with Palm Springs Unified School District (grades: 1st, 3rd and 5th). However, much of my learning as a “teacher/caregiver” has been with my own children. I have 4 children ranging in ages of 21 to 12. My oldest has autism, so I pride myself in the ability to work with kids of all ages and all levels.I spent the last 8 years running a USA Certified year-round swim team. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I’m currently looking for part time, so I can still be available to drop off and pick up my own children at school.

I genuinely enjoy being around kids and love creating a positive, encouraging environment.
