About Shalonda

Experience: 3 yrs

I'd describe my personality as nurturing, compassionate, fun, and relatable. I love working with children because I truly believe children are the future and deserve to feel safe, supported, encouraged, and confident in who they are becoming. Education is extremely important to me, and I take pride in helping children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. I began working with children immediately after high school while studying English Education at California State University, Dominguez Hills. I've worked with children from Pre-K through 10th grade through organizations including LAUSDBTB, the B&GCC, the , and as a Peer Health Mentor at JSHS. My background includes tutoring, lesson planning, mentoring, SEL, and positive youth development. I am not just looking for a job - I genuinely want to positively impact children's lives while building strong, trusting relationships with families through consistency and care.

I highly recommend Shalonda as a caregiver. She is an incredibly loving, kind, and compassionate person who genuinely cares about the well-being of others. She approaches every responsibility with patience, sensitivity, and professionalism, ensuring that those in her care feel supported, valued, and comfortable. She is also highly responsible and dependable, always prioritizing the needs of the individuals she cares for while maintaining a strong sense of accountability. Her attention to detail, nurturing nature, and dedication to providing quality care make her an exceptional caregiver. Anyone entrusted to her care would be fortunate to have someone so thoughtful, trustworthy, and committed to their well-being.
