Rachel $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Child Development and Family Science from CSULB. I have worked in a high school setting for over 17 years, specifically working with students with disabilities; helping them with college and career services. I had a son with severe disabilities and was responsible for his medically demanding daily routine so I am comfortable with medical needs. I also have been responsible for the care of my 3 grandparents and their medical needs. I’ve hosted “Auntie Camp” for more than 6 years, watching the young kids in my family during my summer break. We did field trips and daily activities in the areas of: Physical Fitness, Language Arts, Arts & Crafts and Science. I was also a director of a before & after school program. In this position I supervised 100 kids and 12 staff members. I would love to help with families and entertain their children. *First Aid/CPR Certified

Hello, my name is Allyssa, and I am a current grad student at San Jose State University pursuing my dream of becoming a Speech Language Pathologist. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and full of energy, especially when it comes to working with children. Being the oldest of four, I have gained extensive experience caring for children of all ages. Back home in Orange County, I had the opportunity to work with up to four different families, ranging from ages 1-15 years old. Now, I am actively seeking part-time and one-time job opportunities that align well with my academic commitments. In addition to creating a joyful and engaging environment for kids, I can also handle meal preparation and provide homework assistance. On a personal note, I had the privilege of playing collegiate soccer, highlighting my dedication and teamwork skills. I am fully vaccinated and more than happy to share excellent references upon request. Looking forward to the chance to connect soon!

“Allyssa is pure sunshine! She connected with my son immediately and they played and played for an hour and a half with a water break here and there (:”
