Hi! I recently graduated with a degree in Psychology from Occidental College and I have learned a lot about child development through the course I took in college. I hope to eventually be a pediatric clinical psychologist who supports children and adolescents who are neurodivergent and have complex health conditions. I started babysitting at around the age of 12 and have gotten to spend time with many wonderful kids throughout the years. I consider myself to be a child at heart while also being responsible! I am excited to spend time with your kids :)

No matter what age or stage your child is at, I have experienced it and know how to handle it. I have been working as a childminder for a few years and enjoy every day I have children around me. I am warm-hearted, energetic and enjoy spending my time reading, crafting and playing games. I am also happy to prepare meals.

In high school, I volunteered to babysit the kids of one of my teachers. She had two boys and she was a single mother with a few different jobs. I would go to her house when she needed me to and watch the boys for however many hours she needed me to. I would prepare food for them when the time came around. I would make sure they took their naps when they needed to. I would help with school work and spend time with them whether that involved watching tv, playing a game or doing some sort of activity.

Hi there, I’m Emma, an aspiring nurse who is CPR and Basic Life Support certified.I have several years of experience in the medical field, both as a caregiver and technician. Back in high school, I also volunteered in RUSD elementary schools, leading afterschool programs for children with behavioral issues.Growing up as the oldest of three girls, I’vehad the privilege of guiding them from infancy through their school years. While my upbringing gave me a solid foundation in childcare, I have an appreciation for the earlier stages of development: infants and newborns. When my extended family members needed to return to work shortly after birth, I was entrusted to step-in given my clinical background. This provided me with valuable insight through hands-on, consistent care.I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while ensuring your little ones are well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to help your family—feel free to reach out!
