About Laura

0

Hi! My name is Laura (she/her) and I'm a Psychology major at UCLA minoring in Applied Developmental Psychology. I have 100 hours of hands-on volunteer experience under the supervision of the trained teachers , where I have provided care to infants and toddlers. I am comfortable with lay-down and stand-up diapers and assisting with potty sits. I also know how to prepare and store breastmilk/formula and give infants their bottles. As part of the ADP minor at UCLA, I have completed a criminal background check which I am happy to provide a copy of. I am also trained in infant and adult CPR and first aid, and I have crisis training as a Crisis TextLine counselor. I have my own car and am happy to run errands if needed. Working with young children and their families is such a joy, and I would love to work with your family! Please reach out with any questions or if you are looking for more information! I am also happy to hop on a phone call.

Laura is my coworker at my internship and is an amazing caregiver. Through working with her, I noticed that Laura is attentive to the kids, provides quality care, and always has a smile on her face. Because of her experience and coursework, Laura's style of caregiving promotes growth in all domains of development, enhancing children's cognitive, social-emotional, motor, and language skills. If you are looking for a babysitter, I couldn't recommend Laura more!
