Hi, my name is Brianna. I am 32 y/o. I’m a novato native, currently residing in San Rafael. I’m currently looking to help a family or two with childcare for any age. I’ve worked with kids in some fashion my entire life. I have younger siblings (24 & 6), and many nieces and nephews from close friends. I’ve worked with children since I was 12 y/o. Im comfortable with all ages of children, newborns - 13yrs+. I’m familiar with the growth stages for each respective age group and the tailored needs each child requires. Ive volunteered on our youth team at church for several years, including both teaching small groups and in larger settings - church conferences, etc. I spent a year directing a summer camp program for a tennis club, including a full curriculum of arts & crafts activities, walkable field trips, food schedules, physical activities. I’m well educated in food allergies and sensitivities. Additionally, I’m personally familiar with food sensitivities. I am generally very active. I am NOT a tennis player, however I know the basics. I grew up playing basketball for many years, along with cheerleading and softball. I’m a confident swimmer, and enjoy most outdoor activities. I am not currently CPR certified, but am willing to renew my certification, and have been certified in infant, adolescent, and adult CPR. - Directly after high school, I attended school in Las Vegas for medical assisting - learning the basics of first aid and medical training. Knowledge of which I’m looking to further apply in my studies of nutrition. his summer, I will started my pre-reqs for my nutrition degree, paired with obtaining a certification as a pilates instructor. I’m able to help with household needs; light cleaning, food prep/ cooking, taking children to school or afterschool activities. I love all pets - I grew up with pets in the house hold, and am happy to help with walking dogs, taking them to the dog park, and replenishing their food/ water (for all pets). I hope this helps you get to know me a bit better. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family!

$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been working as a child care provider in an array of settings since 2019. After graduating with a BA is psychology from Chapman University I began working as a Nanny as well as becoming a preschool teacher. I fell in love with the Early Educational field and have been working with kids ever since. I have many years experience as a lead teacher for ages infant to pre-k and have worked closely with families to ensure positive and healthy environments for social, emotional and physical growth. I am currently getting my masters in counseling and have been working closely with elementary and middle school aged children as well. I love all things arts, creativity and imagination. In my free time I like to hike and explore new areas around where I live :) I hope to connect and be able to continue to be a positive person for those I work with!

Katrina is the absolute BEST. She was a preschool teacher for both of my boys and they adore her. She is kind, patient, loving, and responsible. She has amazing communication skills and loves teaching kids. She is amazing with all personality types and is reassuring to even the most reluctant kids. My kids love spending time with her.
