Hello! I’m a psychology major currently attending Cerritos College,I am trying to get into a program in speech pathology. I’ve always loved working with children, and for the past year I’ve had the opportunity to work with kids in ABA. It’s a job I genuinely love because I get to have fun, build connections, and be part of their growth and development. I’ve babysat for family and friends over the years and have experience caring for children. Working in ABA has also given me valuable experience understanding children’s individual needs, being patient, staying attentive, and creating a fun and supportive environment. I feel very fortunate to work with kids and see their progress, and I would love the opportunity to bring that same care, patience, and positive energy to babysitting. I’m responsible, caring, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children and helping them feel comfortable, happy, and supported.

Hi, I’m Olivia! I’m currently pursuing my Master of Public Health at the University of Southern California (USC). I’ve always enjoyed working with children and creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment for them.My childcare experience began in high school, when I worked as a leader for my city’s summer camp programs. Through this role, I spent a lot of time supervising and engaging with children of different ages, leading activities, keeping them safe, and making sure they felt included and supported. I built great relationships with many of the kids, and several parents reached out to me for babysitting after their children told them how much they enjoyed having me as their camp leader.Since then, I’ve gained babysitting experience caring for children outside of the camp setting as well. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and dependable, while still being someone kids can have fun and feel comfortable with. I’m happy to help with playtime, meals and snacks, homework, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged with age-appropriate activities. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a safe, caring, and enjoyable environment for your little ones!

I am a responsible, patient, and caring childcare provider with experience working with children of all ages. As a past swim instructor, I taught young children water safety and swimming skills while creating a fun, encouraging, and safe learning environment. This role helped me develop strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to build trust with both children and parents. In addition to my professional experience, I have helped care for my younger brothers from infancy through age seven and have regularly babysat for other family members’ children. Through these experiences, I have assisted with meal preparation, playtime, bedtime routines, and ensuring children’s safety and well-being. I enjoy creating positive, engaging experiences for children while providing dependable and attentive care that families can trust.

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🤍
