Hi!! My name is Ashley and I am 21 years old living in San Diego but moving to Simi Valley in August! I am currently halfway through my senior year and am looking to help some families out! I grew up around kids my entire life being the oldest of three (16 and 8) and by being part of a foster family! We helped care for newborns through children aged 12 years old, which really helped grow my love for kids. I previously worked as a full time nanny for a year and a half and have been continuously working with many families as a long term babysitter! I have also had 5 years of coaching experience working with elementary school through high school aged young ladies! I have a working car, do not smoke, am CPR certified, and am comfortable doing overnight work. I would love the opportunity to help you and your family out! Please let me know if you have any questions and I would love to chat.
