Hey! My name is Ace, and I am a Sophomore at UCSC studying psychology. I grew up in a Southern California beach town, where I spent my time swimming, participating in the Junior Lifeguard program, and playing water polo. I spent the past three summers as a certified lifeguard, and I enjoy hiking, spending time outdoors, and art. My experience with kids ranges from giving swim lessons to babysitting for neighborhood families. I also had the opportunity to spend time in Bali and Ecuador, where I assisted in teaching English in local schools as part of a volunteer service organization called Global Leadership Adventures. As the oldest of three brothers, I have a lifetime of experience with high-energy kids! I am seeking part-time work that allows me to remain committed to my studies while also providing opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and have some fun. I consider myself responsible, reliable, and patient. I enjoy helping kids find their self-confidence.

QUICK BIO:I was born and raised in sunny southern California during its former golden days.After attending parochial schools all throughout my elementary, middle, and high school years, I went on to college.I attained my Bachelor of Science degree in Child Development and Multiple Subjects Teaching Credential from California State University, Fullerton.Thereafter, I taught in private and public elementary schools.I married my best friend, Sean, bought a home in Huntington Beach, CA and years later, we had three beautiful children together.I left the teaching profession to care for our babies.Wanting a better life for our young family, Sean and I moved to semi-rural Meridian, Idaho to raise our kids.Ultimately in 2024, our family moved to beautiful Whitehouse, Texas for Sean's career.MORE DETAILS:I am a mother to two respectful adults and one vivacious high school teenager.I LOVE my children...they are my life!I truly believe that children are God's greatest treasures to us, and we must take care of them in the best ways we can.Before moving to Texas in 2024, I was a weekly part-time sitter for a sweet toddler, in my home for the last few years.Being with that little one was such a joy, as it gave me opportunities to remember the heart-warming times of my own children's childhoods. I've always enjoyed being around children.I love their zest for life and seeing the world through their eyes.I try my best to relate to kids at their level, to understand where they're coming from.I aim to talk with them, not at them.I know the words I say and the actions I take can have an impact on them, so I strive to make our interactions positive and constructive.I truly hope to be a benevolent influence in every child's life.
