Hello! My name’s Lauryn. I currently work full time at a law firm in Palo Alto M-F, but I am open to one time jobs, occasional babysitting, and weekend work! Previously, I graduated from SJSU back in 2023 with a BA in Psychology. During my time there, I worked as a substitute teacher with ChildCare Careers, a credentialed preschool teacher at SJSU’s child care center and at Action Day Schools. Before that, i worked for a family in San Jose for about a year and they had 2 year old twins. I have a couple of families that asked me for one time jobs and I started out as a gymnastics coach for kids in Sacramento, CA. In other words, I’ve been working with kids for a long time! I have a lot of experience, mainly with children 0-7. People would describe me as energetic, friendly, and professional. Please feel free to message me any time for a one-time job or weekend care! My availability is subject to change but I will try to be as flexible as I can for your family.

Hello, my name is Liliana (though I also go by Lily)! I was born and raised in San Jose and have recently returned to the area after graduating with my B.S. in Psychology from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. My previous work has been in the mental health field, working in academic and nonprofit settings, and I am excited to begin my journey in childcare! While I am new to professional childcare work, I am no stranger to caring for children. I have always loved interacting with kids, whether it be entertaining younger cousins at family gatherings, or volunteering to assistant teach the toddler ballet classes at my dance studio in high school! I admire children's curiosity, creativity, and intelligence, and I find so much fulfillment in watching them grow! I am open to caring for children of all ages (infant, toddler, elementary, and middle) and young adults with care needs. I am also willing to assist with household tasks and pet care. Relevant education and certifications: - Undergraduate courses in child development. - Pediatric CPR/AED certified by the Red Cross. - Valid CA driver's license. About me: - I am an avid reader and have a deep appreciation for children's literature! Some of my childhood favorites include "Arnie the Doughnut" and "Sarah, Plain and Tall." - I love cooking and baking, and spend a lot of time trying new recipes! I am a big proponent of involving kids in the kitchen – it teaches life skills, supports mathematic and scientific development, and is a great vehicle for creativity! - I am a big fan of the performing arts! I grew up participating in dance and musical theatre, and I continue to take recreational ballet classes in my spare time! Similarly, I love fostering creative expression in kids, whether it be music, dance, drawing, or imaginative play! *Note: Please message me before booking. Though I try to update my availability regularly, it is subject to change and it is best to make arrangements by messaging first. Thank you!
