Hi, my name is Shawn. I'm offering child care and light housekeeping, and house assistance, like running errands etc. Also, house sitting. I am able to drive kids to and from school and other places they need to go. I have a valid driver's license and car insurance and a reliable car. I also can cook meals for the family. As far as experience goes, I am a mother of four and was a stay at home mom during the whole time they were growing up. I did child care for awhile then also. I also helped raise my granddaughter. We were the house that all the kids hung out at. I love having kids around. I'm a very fun, upbeat person, and kids really do like me. I'm very dependable and I'm sure you would be happy with bringing me on to work with your family. Thank you

Shawn was wonderful with my 8-year-old daughter. She was warm, engaging, and kept her happily entertained with games and activities. She also encouraged my daughter to tidy up her toys and organize her closet, which was such a nice bonus. Shawn is kind, dependable, and connects easily with kids. I would happily recommend her to any family looking for a caring and proactive nanny.

I am a reliable, creative caregiver with six years of experience babysitting families with up to four children and working as a camp counselor. As a senior at UC Santa Cruz majoring in Art History and minoring in Education, I lean into my artistic background to plan engaging, art-driven activities and games that keep kids inspired and entertained. I am highly organized and skilled at managing daily routines, from school pick-ups to meals and bedtime. Beyond childcare, I have a strong background in household and animal care, including house sitting for families with dogs and cats, and volunteering for years at an animal rescue. Safety is my top priority; I am Red Cross certified in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and hold a Food Handlers Permit. With my friendly, positive attitude, I focus on creating a fun, safe, and structured environment for your family.
