I am currently in the process of getting my certification in Child Life. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I want to become a Child Life Specialist! I started babysitting at 14, and once I started driving, I began working at the YMCA in the childcare department. I did our afterschool as well as summer programs with ages 5-12. I have also worked in the church nursery as well as at a preschool with infants-5 years old. I especially love watching infants and toddlers because of their sweet and precious dispositions! However, I also love working with kids that are no longer toddlers because they’re so fun and energetic.Infants are my ideal jobs. I have so much love, compassion, and patience with them. I have several families that I am lucky to know, and that have given me the privilege of loving on their little one. I have often been called a baby whisperer 😉 I really have a passion for children, and I would love the opportunity to love on your sweet kiddos🤍

Hi! I am living in Orange County and just graduated from UCSB. I am looking to start my own vintage clothing business and meanwhile would also love to be working with kids. I enjoy being around children and getting to know them and going on adventures to the park. I’ve lived next to door to kids my whole life and grew up babysitting a lot because of this.
