Booked by 2 families in Atascadero, CA

I recently graduated with a degree in Kinesiology from Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo in 2020 and I’ve been working in the health/fitness industry for about 10 years now. Currently I work part-time as a Personal Trainer and Swim Coach. When I’m not working I’m busy chasing my 5 year old around. We enjoy walks with the dogs, school, going to the park, play-dates, reading the Little Blue Truck series, and spending time with family. Additionally, I’ve worked as a caregiver in the past at an assisted living facility and personally with my mom who had Pancreatic cancer. As a trainer, I work with a wide range of clientele. I work with the following demographics: geriatric, individuals with disabilities/special needs, and athletes. I enjoy helping people and assisting them with their daily needs and activities.

Frances was great! My daughter was very comfortable with Frances. She had a great time playing games for 4+ hours. Will definitely try to hire Frances the next time we are in Paso.

Booked by 5 families in Atascadero, CA

As a member of a large family with three kids of my own, I'm no stranger to the challenges and joys of child care and the multi-tasking required to keep things running smoothly in the day to day! I'm a team player with a focus on supporting parents in their role as guide and caregiver while fostering emotional intelligence, generosity, collaboration and imagination in children. I was a stay at home mom for many years before re-joining the workforce, and have a deep appreciation for the skills required to juggle all the hats of busy parents! From meal prep to household chores while keeping things fun and playful, I can cultivate meaningful experiences for kids that speak to their innate sense of wonder and encourage their eagerness to soak up their environments in enriching ways. We live, laugh and learn when we experience life together!

Kids had an absolute blast.

Hi Families! My name is Jordan and I have a Bachelor's in Child Development from Cal Poly SLO! I have lots of experience working with all kinds of children of different ages, needs, and abilities. I have worked part-time at 1 day care and 2 private preschools in San Luis Obispo as a teacher, with children ages where I worked with 4 months-4-years-old. I am currently working as a student teacher for Cal Poly SLO’s Multiple Subject credential program, as well as babysitting/nannying, face painting, and tutoring! I love the water and know how important it is for children to connect with the outside and how to stay safe. I love making and teaching different crafts and hobbies like painting, jewelry making, etc. I am very creative and love to show kids how great expressing yourself through art can be. I involve problem solving, behavior development, and vocabulary enrichment into my work! I also have a good understanding of the different needs and developmental stages some children are at and that every child is unique. I can adjust to any environment and can be a nurturing but also assertive nanny/babysitter. I am certified in CPR, lifeguard safety in AED and first aid, and pest management around children. I am also a California Child Abuse Mandated Reporter. Feel free to reach out! I have a packed resume, and I really, really love working and connecting with kids! Please message me and I can give you my contact information! Thank you!
