Hennesy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m currently an Occupational Therapy (OT) student with a passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I worked in a school supporting children with special needs, which has given me valuable experience creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments while adapting to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m patient, dependable, and creative, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I love incorporating arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate learning into the time we spend together. My background in OT has also strengthened my understanding of child development, sensory needs, and positive communication. Outside of work and school, I love art and animals, and I’m always happy to help with pet care if needed. I’m also comfortable assisting with light household tasks, such as tidying up after activities, preparing simple meals and snacks, and helping keep your home organized while caring for your children. My goal is to provide families with reliable, compassionate care while making sure children feel safe, supported, and have fun. I look forward to getting to know your family!

Jocelyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there - My name is Jocelyn and I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Neurobiology & Behavior and currently work in Pharma Advertising. I was a caretaker for 2 elderly folks thru college and have really been caring for newborns, toddlers, and young kiddos since I was 15, and now looking forward to caring for your loved one(s)! I love staying active, so there’s no doubt I’ll have energy to keep up with energies of all ranges. I’ve cared for kids only a few months old to 11years old (I’m a great tutor/homework helper btw!) and have also cared for elderly folks, managing a range of medical conditions, including Parkinson’s, MS, and Dementia. I’m also rather flexible, if you need help driving the kids around, making meals, or any other general help, consider me your gal! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to lmk. Looking forward to caring for your loved ones!
