Hi families! My name is Allison, and I am currently a TK Special Education Teacher. I earned my Special Education teaching credential through CSUN, and when I am not teaching, I am available for babysitting and childcare support. I have over 18 years of experience working with children of different ages and needs, including children with disabilities and developmental delays. I am CPR certified, fingerprinted, and have completed background clearance through LAUSD. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, have my own car, and am comfortable helping with routines, play, learning activities, and creating a safe, caring environment. I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families, and I would love the opportunity to help with your childcare needs.

Allison was great. Fully trusted her and felt comfortable. She was very fun with our 5 year old. Will definitely hire again.
