Meet Tiana

I love being a sitter/caretaker because I believe it is my life purpose to be a role model for kids and help them become the best version of themselves. I have always had a passion for working with young children because their joy for life and curiosity is contagious. This passion has allowed me to create special bonds with the children I work with. I have watched children with severe behavior issues transform and develop great communication skills and strengthen their social and emotional intelligence through my guidance. When it comes to childcare my approach is to be nurturing and gentle but enforce boundaries and rule-following. I am sweet, caring, funny, and silly, but I can also be serious when I need to. I have 9+ years of experience working with kids in numerous fields. Some positions I’ve worked in are Youth Gymnastics Coach, Camp Counselor, Kids Group Supervisor, Kindergarten/First Read more Grade Teacher's assistant, Tutor, Afterschool Teacher, Dance Teacher, Babysitter, and Nanny. Through these positions, I have extensive experience with lesson planning, executing fun and enriching activities, teaching problem solving, social emotional relationships, and much more. I graduated from UCSB with a bachelor’s degree in communication. Some other skills of mine include cooking, cleaning, gymnastics/dance coaching, environmental education, and gardening. I am equipped with first aid and CPR certifications as well as a food-handlers certificate. I am ready to go above and beyond to provide the best care for your children.
