I have worked for childcare careers where I worked for over 25 daycares throughout the city of Chicago.I work with children with autism and behavioral needs. I’ve done things like bathing, feeding training(potty training, and sleep training) and more. I study early childhood education for about two years. I have two more classes to have a basic certification in early childhood education. I’ve worked with children for over 10 years.Throughout that time, I have learned many things I’m hoping to learn even more with your company.

Hi there! I'm Bella Perez, and while I may not have a lengthy professional resume in babysitting, I come from a wonderfully large family full of energetic kiddos that have given me a lot of hands-on experience! As the go-to family babysitter, I've embraced every giggle and storytime that comes with caring for my younger relatives - all on a volunteer basis. My role as the unofficial 'childcare coordinator' in my household has taught me patience, creativity, and the art of multitasking, ensuring your little ones are safe and happy.

I love being a sitter because I naturally enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for them. I'm a high-energy, caring person, and I like being someone people children can feel comfortable around. Being a sitter also connects with my long-term passion for working with children and families.im currently a behavioral therapist working with autistic children ages 2-10 years oldI have babysitting experience with infants and older .( I am willing to provide babysitting / nanny references ) I'm very comfortable supervising kids of different ages. I help with daily routines, keeping kids engaged, and making sure they are safe and supported. I'm dependable, patient, and good at adapting to different family needs. I'm currently graduating next year with my associate's degree in Psychology, and I'm inspired to eventually become a child therapist. I'm also interested in becoming an ultrasound technician, which reflects my overall interest in healthcare and working in child and family-focused fields. I bring strong communication skills, a positive attitude, and a willingness to keep learning and growing. I am not CPR certified yet but am open to getting certified. Thank you for considering me!
