If you are looking for a responsible, patient, playful, and experienced caregiver, then give me a call! I have extensive childcare and teaching experience. I love outdoor excursions and am very energetic, but also enjoy soft reading time, imaginative play, and crafts. I have years of baby - toddler care experience, and have taught kids from ages 3 - 18 in multiple classes such as preschool movement camps, elementary-aged dance classes, and high-school level English courses. I homeschooled my two kids and we had amazing adventures and creative endeavors along the way. My oldest is a Dean's List grad from UCSB, and my youngest just graduated Summa Cum Laude from UCLA. My availability is flexible. I have precious older relatives that I need to visit 1x per month, so I am unable to have full-time, year-round availability. Let's talk about your needs and hopefully we can find a schedule that works for both of us. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
Rena was amazing - probably the best babysitter I have ever worked with . She went above and beyond to make sure our eight month old was stimulated and well cared for including checking books out from the library for him and taking him on thoughtful expeditions. Thank you!
