Hi! I’m Leila and I’m currently a sophomore and psychology major at SDSU. I am offering child care and senior care. I love kids with my whole heart. At home, in the Bay Area, I work at an elementary and middle school. During the year I worked in the after school program with kids ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade and during the summer I teach art at the summer camp! I have a little sister that I have always taken care of. We are 8 years apart but super close. We love to draw, read, and go to the beach together. I have done volunteering at multiple senior homes. There, I helped to cook, organize and engage in art activities, lead bingo, and took them on walks. I am comfortable with driving to appointments as well or other tasks. My grandparents are close by in Los Angeles and I try to visit them as much as I can. Recently, at college I have enjoyed cooking and baking. On my own time, I love to draw. I’m always happy to do art with whoever I am spending time with! I love to read as well. At my school job, I tutored the younger kids in reading and math. Also, I love all pets and I am happy to have pet responsibilities as well. At home, I have a dog, a cat, and some fish. I am very organized, kind, and patient. I handle issues quickly and have good time management. This semester, I have a busy schedule but I have free time in the late afternoon and evening on Monday and Wednesday. On Tuesday and Thursday, I am free in the evening. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I am free at any time!

Hello! I am a professional educator currently working within the San Diego Unified School District as a TK teacher at a Mandarin immersion school. I have been in the education sector since 2007. I have a Master of Science degree in Education with a Concentration in Literacy and Reading. I am a single parent to a high schooler and a shih tzu. My Professional Background: Teaching experience: I started out my career as an educator as a Child Development Center Assistant then took on the role of an Independence Facilitator. I worked my way up to becoming a teacher while taking Child Development courses, and completing my master's degree as well as a Graduate Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. Specialized experience: I have had the privilege to work as a behavioral therapist (trained in ABA) for five years for private non-profit organizations. Foster care: I proudly served as a foster parent to children with special needs for eight years. My caregiving philosophy: I love being a teacher! It is my absolute pleasure watching young children grow, learn, and meet their developmental milestones. Inside the home, I bring the same organization, loving structure, and accountability that I use in my classroom. For example, I teach my 3-5 year old students how to be responsible by guiding them through routines such as cleaning up after themselves. I ensure every child receives equal and individualized attention tailored to their own unique personality. I love to read, cook, and bake. I enjoy talking with children about random things under the sun. It is my greatest joy to learn from them just as much as they learn from me. I am seeking a rewarding supplemental role and be productive during school breaks and in the afternoons or evenings when I have down time. I am comfortable working in homes with friendly dogs and cats. If you believe my educational background and experience align with your family's needs, I would love to connect!

Hello!! My name is Martina! I just graduated at SDSU where I majored in Psychology with a minor in Counseling and Social Change. For the next year I am looking to build more experience working with children before applying to schools as a therapist specializing in family therapy. In the past I worked as a teacher's assistant at Dewey Elementary for third graders for a few months where I read with them and helped them with homework. I also babysat when living abroad in New Zealand, worked at a daycare with 1 year olds - 3 year olds from April 2025 - August 2025. Furthermore, I also spent last July working with autistic children (most about 2 years old) in Spain with a psychologist!
