Booked by 3 families in Riverdale, CA

Hello, my name is Reilly. I am a 22 year-old student at California Polytechnic State University who is looking to make new connections within my town and have some income while being a full time student. I am very organized and reliable, as well as flexible with scheduling. I do have a car so if transportation is something that maybe needed we can work something out there. I have many years of experience caring for both children and pets. I have 11 years experience in 4-H and 4 years experience in FFA, so I am extremely comfortable around all animals large and small. I am also a quick learner if the an animal needs extra or special attention. As for caring for children and seniors, I am both CPR and First Aid certified for all ages. I also participated and passed the American Red Cross Babysitting course years ago when I first became a care giver. I have experience with children of all ages including infants, toddlers, middle aged, and teenaged, as well as seniors. I also have experience caring for sets of twins and caring for multiple children at one time. As for household services, either while being a care giver or not, I like to leave the house cleaner than when I arrived. This would include sweeping, putting toys away, or basic house tiding tasks. I am very flexible and easy to communicate with and I am excited to be a helpful hand to those in my new community.

Hi! My name is Darinna, I’m 19 and currently working as a Behavioral Technician with children in a clinical setting. I have several years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages, including children with autism and other special needs. Parents describe me as patient, reliable, and creative — I love keeping kids engaged with play, learning, and activities (instead of just screen time). Safety is always my top priority: I’m CPR/First Aid trained, have a clean driving record, and I’m comfortable with meal prep, light tidying, and bedtime routines.
