Fostering a child's growth and development has always felt natural to me. I'm currently a college student studying Pediatric Nursing, and my passion for helping children is a huge part of why I chose this path. Caring for kids brings me genuine joy. I'm patient, calm, and creative, and I always try to make each child feel supported, understood, and encouraged. My CPR and First Aid Training, along with my Early Child Development coursework, help me provide safe, thoughtful care every day. I've always loved school, so helping with homework and educational activities is something I truly enjoy. I'm also very comfortable helping with meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I follow your preferred communication style and always respect your household rules. I look forward to partnering with your family and providing nurturing, dependable care that helps your days feel easier and your children feel supported.

Hello all! My name is Caitlyn, I am currently attending San Diego State University while pursuing my bachelors degree in Communications. I little bit about me, I recently moved to San Diego about two years ago, since then I have absolutely fallen in love with the environment and the people itβs filled with. Outside of school, some hobbies I enjoy are going on hikes, going to the beach or spending quality time with friends or family. I am applying through Wyndys because I miss the opportunity to work with young creative minds. In the past I have worked with IHSS- In Home Support Services, in addition to coaching a Special Olympics team. I can ensure that if you hire me, your children are my number one priority. I wanted to thank you for taking the time to get to know a little bit about me, and I look forward to meeting you! :)
