As a certified teacher with a decade of childcare experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth. My calm and creative personality helps me engage children in educational and fun activities. I keep parents updated on their child's day through written reports and use their preferred communication method. I'm comfortable following the household rules set by the parents and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I'm also fluent in English and Portuguese. Adding to all, I am certified for First Aid and Child Nutrition and Cooking. By now, my priority is to keep the kids safe while nurturing a playful environment where they can develop their set of skills and personality. I`m fully vaccinated. I believe in supporting families and providing reliable care. It brings me joy to see the positive impact I have on children's lives. I would be thrilled to be a part of your family and look forward to getting to know you and your children.
Pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Quantitative Psychology at UC Davis. I come from a family of four but have experience sitting for my baby cousins, dogs and keeping the kids entertained. I love caregiving because of the ability to be there for kids to have fun and also make sure they are doing so in a kind and respectful manner. Something about me is I am a nature lover and an athlete! I have been running track for about 6 years now competitively and I love being a part of a team community and making friends though my love for the sport.

Hi! My name is Claire and I recently graduated from the University of San Francisco with a Bachelors in communication studies. I have been babysitting since freshman year of high school and also have four years of experience coaching kids soccer both boys and girls ages 5-10. I have loved being able to share my love for soccer while coaching and really enjoy babysitting. I have grown up with dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them as well. I studied abroad in Italy in 2023 where I interned at a local cooking school and cooking is one of my favorite things to do!
