I have paid babysitting experience caring for children ranging from toddlers to pre-teens. My responsibilities included preparing meals, helping with homework, organizing age-appropriate activities, and maintaining a safe, fun environment. I’ve also helped with bedtime routines and light housekeeping. Through babysitting, I’ve developed strong communication skills with both kids and parents, learned how to manage conflicts calmly, and gained experience supporting children’s emotional and developmental needs.

Hi! 👋🏾 I’m Devyn, but most people call me “Dev.” A few of my favorite things to do are going on nature walks, playing board games, shopping, and trying new foods. Most of my life, I’ve always had a desire to teach those around me. Growing up in school I would always offer to tutor my peers. Then, alongside that, I became a youth leader — a position I held for five years.During my time at UCI, I accepted a position to be a Program Leader at the company Think Together. Those two years of my life were truly remarkable. I had the opportunity to work with children ages four to fourteen on all different parts of life. From academics to life/societal skills and experiences, I was able to be a guide and walk them through hardships. It was nice knowing that I played a part in their growth and that I was not only a teacher, but a friend. 🤗I think when working with younger generations, it’s important to recognize how crucial it is to meet them where they are. That’s the only way to develop an understanding for their wants and needs, which leads to more fun! 🌈

I worked as a Pediatric Transplant Caregiver (1 child) & Special Needs Caregiver (2 children) while attending UC Irvine. I also meal prepped in my Special Needs Caregiver role.I am a recent nursing graduate with certifications such as BLS, ACLS, and PALS.
