Hi my name is Erlinda. I live in San Rafael California. I am a NCS, I have had the privilege of working for the last family for the past 4.5 years. My primary responsibilities included childcare ( infancy through toddler years, including twins) and everything related to the babies. My last family described me: from the childcare prospective - she is proactive, hard working, creative, resourceful and patient. I t is clear that she loves our children and looks after them as though they are her own. She has gone the extra mile wen our kids have been sick or during the family emergencies wen we (the parents) have had to leave unexpectedly and we have always felt nothing but secure about the safety and well-being of our kids under her care. (if you want to hear more about my recommendation letter that my actual family described me contact me and I am happy to share and provide the contact) From the Eldercare perspective, I have an excellent recommendation too as a domestic care taker, house keeper, pet keeper, and personal aide. That family described me: As a compassionate individual, I give truly heartfelt attention to personal and house- tending needs. I am happy to provide the contact information to these references.
“I have the opportunity and privilege to work with Erlinda Esparza whom I have for 7 years. When we first met I was immediately impressed with her abilities. During our time together, she displayed such talents as Childcare, Elder Care, the best Housecleaning, Cooking, Gardening, getting Groceries, Dog Walking and she sometimes takes someone to the Hospital or any other emergency. Not too long ago, I needed a driver to take me to a hospital. Erlinda left her family dinner, took me to the hospital, stayed there for 4 hours and drove me home. When we began working together, her understanding was far more than I was expecting. She is a joy to work with because of her can-do positive attitude and valued not just by myself but by her peers who often relied on her to get the job done. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 415-472-4722. Yours truly, Carol Wells”
Greetings, my name is Madisen. I am Currently a College Of Marin student majoring in Business. I recently took a class in Psychology for child and development and instantly fell in love with the class. I learned a lot when it comes to the development of children overtime as well as the importance of child psychology. My experience working with children began in 2017 when I decided to baby-sit many families kids in the Bay Area. I also worked at a daycare in 2020 for many months to gain more experience in taking care of kids from ages 4 to 13. I really enjoyed being in such a wonderful environment and working with kids. Furthermore, I am licensed and have a reliable car. I speak both English and Spanish fluently , I am also very responsible, patient and creative but best of all I love playing with children! A little bit about myself is that in my spare time I like to play soccer, bake, and spend time with my family. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. I look forward in hearing from you and getting to know your kiddos!
“Kids had a great time with Madisen. Will for sure have her back.”
My name is Dorisiya, and I have extensive experience working with and caring for children. I'm a music teacher and teach privately and in groups, and I'm also a part time nanny. I earned my Masters degree from Boston Conservatory and lived there for a while before moving to the Bay Area. Currently, I teach at the Maud Powell String Institute in Novato, CA and babysit part time. Previously, I was a part-time caregiver for Care.com and College Nannies/Sitters. I work with all ages. Additionally, I am a pet sitter and offer in-home visits or walks. I have 2 years of experience as a licensed cat sitter and am currently dog sitting through the Rover app. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns, and I'll be happy to answer those. I am taking assignments both in Marin County and San Francisco as I split my time there. Thanks! Sincerely, Dorisiya
“Dori was great - took care of our two cats while my family was out of the country. She went really above and beyond when one of our cats seemed to be be sick, even offering to go back to our place multiple times to check on her. Great communication. Really nice to find someone you can trust - would love to work with her again. ”
I have over 15 years of experience in taking care of children in various capacities - from occasional/regular part-time babysitting shifts, working as an elementary school health and wellness coordinator (teaching physical education to grades K-5th, nutrition and student leadership), and providing health promotion education to children and families in my current full-time job in the Public Health field. Since I can remember, I’ve always enjoyed and appreciated the opportunities I have to help children learn and develop their skills, values and confidence. I speak Spanish, enjoy to exercise with groups/outdoors, and appreciate musicals/theatre. I currently live in Central Marin and appreciate learning more about your child care needs over the phone :)
