I have been fully vaccinated for COVID and love nurturing children of all ages! I specialize in infants and children with special needs. My own sons are 19 and 22 years old. They are now thriving adults living on their own. I would be happy forward background report, DMV records, negative COVID test and resume. I have taught swimming to infants and worked at a Montessori School. I use the Montessori method to teach children through play. At UCSB, I was a nanny for a family for 12 yrs. We are still close! I feel my job as a caregiver is to make the children feel safe, validated and empowered to explore. I will read, communicate and play! I emphasize manners. I love outdoor fun and will go the beach and parks too. Kids first, but I also love to clean. My references will tell you how much they love it when I reorganize all the kid's clothes in the drawers or the snacks in the pantry. I hope to hear from you. :)
