Hello my name is Reina. I have a BA in Psychology. I have close to 10 years of working experience with children ranging from infants to school-aged children. I am currently an educator who teaches different ages in elementary schools. I was also a behavior technician who worked with children with different developmental disabilities. I enjoy teaching and seeing children succeed.

Reina was fantastic, our daughter had a great time with her and she was great with the baby too. Look forward to having her back!

Hi! My name is Ally 😊 I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a degree in Psychology, and I bring over a year and a half of full-time experience as an Assistant Daycare Teacher. That role strengthened my skills in child development, behavior guidance, structured learning, and creating safe, engaging environments for children of all ages. Prior to that, I worked as a tutor, babysitter, and provided private youth soccer training, giving me a well-rounded background in both academic and active enrichment. I currently hold a Level 3 Early Childhood Professional Credential and am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED. Safety is always my top priority, but I also love creating fun, educational, and fulfilling experiences that help kids feel confident and supported. Outside of childcare, I love staying active, being outdoors, and being around family and friends. I am also currently pursuing my certification in personal training, nutrition, and women's health and fitness! I look forward to connecting with families and becoming someone your children feel excited to see!

Booked by 1 family in Winnetka, CA

Hello, My name is Aloha, I'm 24 years old, and I'm currently an au pair for a family of three children, ages 7, 14, and 17. The 14-year-old is autistic, so I'm able to look after a child with a mild disability. I'm French but I speak good English. In France, I also looked after children between the ages of 3 and 6. I've also looked after toddlers a few times, so I'm able to do so with clear instructions about their needs. I am offering child care, pets care, and household services. I can cook, drive to appointments, or other tasks. Looking forward to helping you :)
