Hello! My name is Autumn. I have been working with children since I was sixteen years old and I am now 26. I recently moved to California from Colorado in May. In Colorado, I worked for an elementary school where I assisted children between the ages of four and eleven years old, primarily focusing on small group management, and building their educational skillsets. When school was out for the summer, I worked for a popular summer camp called Galileo. I recently worked at the Galileo in Burlingame this summer. Outside of that, I have done my fair share of babysitting and can provide references upon request. I currently work at an elementary school in Millbrae as a SPED paraprofessional. Aside from my experience in childcare, I graduated with a bachelors degree in photography at The University of Colorado Denver. I used to spend my free time volunteering at the Dumb Friends League animal shelter in Colorado. I also have experience in pet sitting and can provide references for that as well. I am an extremely organized and detail-oriented person. I am very tidy and believe that clean spaces will allow for more productivity. I am a very fun and nurturing person. People will often describe me as silly, engaging and loving. I am extremely good with kids between the ages of four and nine. While I don’t have much experience with infants, it is something I would be potentially open to. I have my own car and reliable transportation. I am looking forward to meeting and working with some wonderful and amazing families. Please reach out if you think I’d be a great fit for you.
Hi! My name is Melina. I was born and raised in San Francisco and have been working with children in various roles for over 10 years. I currently work in a local school district as a behavioral therapist, supporting children with developmental and emotional needs—experience that has helped me develop deep patience, creativity, and an understanding of how to connect with kids at all levels. Childcare has always been a part of my life. My family has run three successful private daycares in San Francisco, and since I was 15, I’ve helped care for families needing an extra hand during evenings, weekends, or special events. I'm also a mom to a wonderful 4-year-old, so I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust with your child. I bring a calm, nurturing presence to every home, and I’m also happy to help with things like tidying up, organizing, or running errands to help keep the household running smoothly. Right now, I’m attending City College of San Francisco, studying to become a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst. My background gives me extra tools to support children’s emotional and developmental needs in everyday moments. If you're looking for a caring, dependable sitter with both experience and heart—I’d love to connect with your family!
“I can't recommend Milena enough. She worked with my autistic son as his RBT for a year and also babysat for us until she moved out of state. Milena was the only one that could connect with him at his therapy center. My son trusted her from the first day they met and she cared and loved him like her own child. She handles unexpected situations calmly and efficiently, ensuring the child’s safety and comfort. Milena is incredibly dependable; she was always punctual, patient, kind, and excellent at creating a positive fun atmosphere. She was such a great asset to our family and I haven’t found anyone I can trust like her since she moved away from Florida. She provided not only exceptional care for our son but also became a cherished part of our family. Any family would be lucky to have her!!! Karla Serrano Cape Coral Florida”
