Hi parents! I'm a recent college graduate with over eight years of varied experience caring for children. I have extensive babysitting experiences with kids from 1 year to 13 years old, and I worked as a camp counselor throughout high school. In college, I've worked at a childcare center for kids with behavioral and developmental differences, and I also interned at a clinical autism center where I worked with kids of all ages on the autism spectrum. I'm pursuing a career in child psychology, and at my internship at a child psych lab at Yale University last summer, I was able to work with infants and children in play and research settings. I'm currently working as a lab manager for a child psychology lab at the University of Santa Cruz, and I'm looking to babysit to earn some extra money to pay rent. Every child is unique, and I'll work Read more with both you and your child to ensure that both of you are comfortable and receive the BEST possible care. I'm excited to meet you all! :)
