What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can support children’s social and academic growth through compassionate, structured care. I want to collaborate with families and educators, help create safe routines, and turn everyday moments into learning opportunities.

I’m a dedicated childcare provider with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and hands-on experience in childcare and afterschool programs. I focus on creating a structured, child-centered environment where learning and wellbeing can grow together.

In my current role at California Care 4 U, I facilitate children’s developmental growth through engaging social interactions in educational and recreational settings. I provide comprehensive academic support, offer emotional support with compassion, and maintain daily routines that promote stability.

As an Afterschool Coach at Beyond the Bell, I supervised safe participation during afterschool activities and helped students improve learning outcomes through tailored homework assistance. I also designed and implemented recreational activities that inspired creativity, teamwork, and positive interactions.

Earlier, in retail as a Receiving Associate, I strengthened my reliability and organization by unloading merchandise, restocking the sales floor, monitoring inventory levels, and reporting discrepancies promptly. I bring that same attention to detail—paired with strong communication and active listening—to every child, family, and team I work with.
