Ciel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Graciela, but you can call me Ciel (SEE-EL). I have been professionally working with kids ages 22mo to 12 years old for about ~2 years. I am currently working as a Behavior Consultant for kids with autism, so I am confident in taking care of children who display intense behaviors. Some of the responsibilities I can provide include driving children (with provided car seat), homework help, cleaning, making meals, community/public outings, and of COURSE engaging kids! I am comfortable and have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I myself have a beautiful American shorthair cat who is named Pesto. I look forward to hearing from you, and I can’t wait to meet your little one(s)!

I have 20+ years in housekeeping and have great reputations with all the people I’ve worked with in the past. Every day I come in with a great attitude and wanting to make my clients day by attending to their housekeeping needs.

“Lupe was phenomenal! We will look forward to working with her in the future!”

Priscilla $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Priscilla. I am a full time school counselor for a TK-8 school. I’m offering child care, senior care, pet care and house hold services. I love my current job but am hoping to be able to work part time in addition to what I currently do. Most of my experience comes from working with my family/ friends and referrals they made on my behalf. My experience with children ranges from working with infants, coaching, educating and providing mental health supports. In other held positions I also organized/ran children events such as crafting activities, workshops, and cheer teams. This experience has been both professional and personal over the span of 18 years. Senior care and animal care has been primarily personal experience. The level of care I provided varied based on needs. However, I feel comfortable and confident to provide this type of support to families.

Madeline $20 per hour for 1 child

I am an outgoing college student and already have over five years of experience with caregiving for children of all ages! I have held two longterm caregiving jobs. The first was a combination of nannying three children (ages 2,7, and 12) and doing housework (laundry,dishes,orginization) a few times a week. The second was nannying for two children (ages 9 and 13) overnight into the next morning (packing lunch, cooking meals, driving kids to school) up to five times per week. Aside from that I have had various babysitting, housesitting, and pet sitting jobs as needed. I pride myself in creating a comfortable, safe, and positive environment for every family. I love to play games, do crafts, and talk to kids about whatever is on their mind. I love to have fun but I also know how to enforce rules and keep order in a household. I am willing and able to supervise swimming, run errands, do light housekeeping, and aid kids in their schoolwork if needed. I hope to make a positive impact in your family’s life!
