Hi My name is Ngan Nguyen( nickname is Holiday), and I love working with young children. I grew up with my big family and appreciate the teaching from family, school and community. Besides, I believe children deserve get a good support to develop their full ability and potential in them. I had working in Child Development for 6 years as assistant teacher and floater teacher in different school. I earned an Associate of Science (A.S.) in Early Childhood Education from De Anza College and a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Child and Adolescent Development (Teaching Preparation) from San José State University. I am currently continuing my education by pursuing my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, Vietnamese Bilingual Authorization, and a Master’s degree. As a student, I value making the most of my time. I enjoy working whenever I am available because it allows me to continue developing my teaching skills while doing something I genuinely love—supporting families and helping children learn and grow. I am available to work weekdays from 3:00 p.m. to midnight and have full availability on weekends.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I have 7+ years of experience working with children. My accumulation of experience is based off of both nannying (one time/part-time/long term) as well as having been a teaching assistant. My favorite part about child care is creating memorable experiences both for and with families as well as being able to be a reliable source of support and assistance. What I’d say makes me a stand out is that my approach with children is gentle and patient - I am big on reinforcing good behavioral traits and re-shaping those that can use improvement to be a source of empowerment and positive self esteem. In 2022 I became a Foothill College graduate, of which took part in my knowledge of engaging with kids. During my time at Foothill, I took several child development courses and took a grand interest in interacting with them/learning about them. Prior to this, I had worked for a program called STK under the Foothill Deanza Community College District Family Engagement Institute for over 4 years. Essentially, I worked as both and intern and mentor in that program, working with and leading nearly over 20+ children in classrooms per day and training interns on how to interact with children, teach children and engaging with children. Currently, I am attaining my bachelors degree and am enrolled as a full time student. Aside from taking care of children, I have experience with pet sitting! Whether it’s coming to your residence or bringing the pet with me for the time necessary, I could do either or. The majority of my skill set is centered around dogs and cats. If you wish to know anything else about me, please feel free to reach out. Otherwise, thank you for your time.
