I have over a decade experience in babysitting and a majority of that are with family memberβs children, whose ages range from infant to 16 years of age. I take them out for walks or strolls around the neighborhood, or to the park to play at the near by playground. I change diapers when needed and love to play games with them. If their parents ask me to do specific activities with them I will, such as reading a book or three. Rarely do I put them to bed myself but if needed, I have everyone brush their teeth, use the bathroom, tuck them in, and wait for everyone to fall asleep.Of course itβs not always sunshine and rainbows with children. I understand the child/children may have bad days, cry for their mom and/or dad, throw toys and balls around or at each other, so when it does happen I put the child/children on time-out or when they get sad or upset I will ask if they need a hug, if theyβd like to do something like playing outside or watch a movie to make them feel better.I always explain to the children, when it comes to behavior and feelings, why we do or donβt do certain things and try to have them put themselves in otherβs shoes to see how if they would like it being done to them.I also have an older niece (16), to which my family say I practically raised, that has Asperger and my patience is extremely high.Lastly, though English is my main language I do know simple ASL if needed to speak with children, such as play, ball, eat/food, milk, water, I love you, and so on.

I am kind, caring, reliable and loyal. I help out in taking care of siblings cousins from months old to their late teen years, aside from that experience I currently work as an instructional aide for traditional kindergarten (ages 4-5) in LAUSD and have been at the same school since 2022. I am able to help with Light Housekeeping and Laundry and although I don't have professional experience, I am more than willing to accommodate any way possible to reassure any family. I have 12 credits in Early Childhood Education and am currently pursuing my AA in Early Childhood Development at Los Angeles Pierce College. My end goal is to help children of any age to grow and develop in their own skin, and to help them feel comfortable and confident in who they are becoming.
