Booked by 27 families in Dublin, CA

Hi! My name is Alondra, and I am currently a senior at the University of San Francisco majoring in Nursing. My goal is to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and supporting their growth and well-being. I offer reliable, compassionate childcare whenever my school schedule allows. I am CPR certified and a registered caregiver through the state, with experience caring for both children and my own grandparents. My healthcare background has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to remain calm in different situations, giving parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, so I am happy to communicate with bilingual families or help children practice Spanish. I’ve also been dancing since I was 3 years old and love incorporating fun, creative activities like dancing, crafts, reading, outdoor play, and games into my time with kids. I love dogs, so I’m more than comfortable caring for pets as well! My goal is to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their children, and I strive to be dependable, attentive, and communicative every step of the way. I look forward to meeting your family!

Alondra came to sit for our two kids this weekend and she was wonderful! She arrived a few minutes early. She listened closely to my instructions and asked questions. All my instructions were followed and my kids said they had a great time with her. She also cleaned up after the kids which was so appreciated! We would love to have Alondra back to sit again!

Hello, I’m Jemma! I’m a credentialed history teacher currently earning my master’s in U.S. History.
