Booked by 1 family in Castaic, CA

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!

Hii 😊 my name is Jessica and I am 19 years old! I have previous experience working with children as an afterschool coach. I mainly worked with 2nd and 4th grade but still have experience working with all grades from t-k to 5th grade. We would provide daily meals, physical activity time, homework time, and creative activities planned for the kids every week! So I am very experienced in a child care schedule.

I have a full time office job but have free time in the evenings and weekends. I helped raise my sister while my parents worked since I was 13 so I do have experience just not professionally. I used to dog-sit for a couple of years before I moved back to my hometown.
