I have 8 years of professional childcare experience in caring for children from infant-15 years of age (ie. feeding, changing, monitoring, taking walks, playing, reading, chauffeuring, & tutoring). I make daily learning skills fun! (ie. cleaning up, brushing teeth, getting dressed etc.). I'm very bubbly, loving, have a great imagination, am patient & attentive. I am a child at heart, so every child seems to gravitate toward me very quickly. I am also a very structured person. Safety is #1. I engage the children in a positive environment. When disciplining, I use positive reinforcement and give the child options to help them make good choices. Keeping the family happy as a whole is my objective, so I am always open to instilling the same methods they use in their household. I'm very comfortable to be around, respectful and tidy. I am CPR/AED & First Aid certified & am also a Read more trained life guard. I have experience working with many children with syndromes and disabilities. I have a clean driving record & a reliable car. I am also pet friendly & a trustful employee. A little bit more about me, I live an eco-conscious lifestyle and knowledgable of healthy nutrition. I graduated from San Diego State University with a Bachelors Degree in Kinesiology - Fitness Nutrition and Health. I love reading, arts and crafts, hiking, meeting new people! I have recently moved to Las Vegas from Beverly Hills, CA. I worked with numerous high clientele and celebrity families and enjoyed working with all of them! So far, I’m loving Las Vegas and can’t wait to meet you! `
