Yuria R.
My name is Yuria, I am 18 years old, and I have just graduated from high school. Currently, I am pursuing a certification in early childhood education development. My interests include playing tennis and participating in various sports. I am thrilled at the prospect of being your next babysitter! Armed with an energetic and creative spirit, my primary focus is ensuring that your children have the most enjoyable time. Whether engaging in sports, creative crafts, or planning exciting activities, my aim is to facilitate learning in a fun setting. (Worried about the aftermath of activities? Don't worry, I'll clean up after each activity.) Previously, I volunteered at an elementary school and worked as an assistant tennis coach. These experiences, coupled with my two years of occasional or regular caregiving, have given me skills in caring for children. My first-aid and CPR certifications highlight my commitment to prioritizing your children's safety. Additionally, I am fluent in both English and Spanish, so language is not a barrier. My services can be customized to meet your needs. I am a multi-tasker, dedicated to working hard, and quick to learn new tasks. I can assist with household chores, pet-sitting, picking up the children, helping with homework, etc. **I can coach tennis for your little ones too!** I can provide references upon request! I look forward to beginning work with your family!
My first experience with kids began when I was 16 years old and discovered my coaching skills while working at a tennis academy. I coached children ranging from 3 to 14 years old, finding ways to keep them engaged, have fun, and develop motor skills. I also volunteered at a local elementary school with Big Brothers, focusing on providing a positive role model and aftercare services. This experience taught me valuable skills such as leadership, effective communication, and creating engaging activities tailored to each child's interests. In the past two years, I have worked with families of all ages providing occasional or regular care. I am hardworking, a quick learner, and adaptable. I excel at multitasking and enjoy planning creative activities to engage children.
