Headline: Dependable Professional | Childcare, Senior Support, Pet & House Sitting About Me: Hi, I’m Celene! I hold an Associate of Arts in Business Administration, which has deeply influenced my organized, dependable, and detail-oriented approach to caregiving. I am proud to offer a versatile range of support for families in my community, spanning across childcare, senior care, pet care, and house sitting. My childcare experience is extensive and hands-on. Having raised four daughters—navigating everything from the toddler years through middle school and all the way into adulthood—and now as a grandmother of three, managing a busy household is second nature to me. Beyond childcare, my professional background in healthcare customer service and my work providing specialized senior concierge services have given me a wealth of compassionate experience assisting seniors with their daily routines. I am also a huge animal lover and a proud dog mom to two large-breed Boxers, so handling big, energetic pets is absolutely no problem! Furthermore, as a state-commissioned Notary Public, I am extensively background-checked, highly organized, and trusted to handle sensitive situations, making me a remarkably reliable choice for house-sitting and keeping your home secure while you travel. I truly love caregiving because I have a deep passion for supporting families. I know firsthand how challenging it is to juggle professional duties with household management, and I find immense joy in providing the peace of mind and an extra set of capable hands that families need to thrive. On a personal note, when I am not working, I absolutely love cooking and am currently having a blast developing my own signature spice blend! My Summer Availability: With the school year wrapping up on May 22, I will be shifting to a highly flexible, full-day schedule. Whether you need dedicated daytime coverage while the kids are out of school, a multi-family Nanny Share, an afternoon pet sitter, or a reliable Friday date-night caregiver, my schedule is wide open to support your summer plans!

You want to find a someone who will care for your children the same way that you would. My goal is to provide a safe and happy family environment for your kids. We love to learn through play and enjoy our time together.

Hello. I'm a retired Children's Social Worker and Reading Specialist who moved to AZ just last year. I have a Bachelor's degree in Social Work with a minor in Spanish and my grad school work was in Psychology. I have 30+ years of experience in multiple Child Development settings: Birth - 3, preschool, and school age settings. Bilingual (Spanish) - I held an Interpreter contract (federal) for 13 years in the Puget Sound/Greater Seattle area. Experience with ranges in age from 0-5 in Early Head Start/Head Start programs and Home Visitor program; middle school Resource (Mainstream Special Education) classroom and ESL (English as a Second Language) program, elementary school all grade levels in Resource classroom and ESL program; high school age Test Administrator (program eligibility determinations) for ESL programs. I was a certified WA state instructor for parenting classes ordered by the legal system - for 2 years, I taught a rotating 10 week course that was mandatory for divorcing parents, with an emphasis on its impact on children. I have raised my own 2 children and both are successfully adulting 20-somethings. I have experience with infants and toddlers with seizure disorders and motor skills therapies, fine motor concentration. I've had cats and Labrador Retrievers for decades. I also am a very active participant regarding the care of my mother, a long ago diagnosed dementia patient. I have extensive knowledge of a variety of reading curriculum and language acquisition practices. I am well versed in what is considered developmentally appropriate practice and consider myself to possess a good amount of patience. I am very active - a workout enthusiast, played competitive soccer for many years, rowed on the crew team at a D1 college, and have been an active snow skier and snowshoer since childhood (benefit of living by Mt Rainier in WA). I raised my own children to love hiking and kayaking and the thrill of the outdoors in general. I'm not a "device" person (while I understand that cell phones, computers, and iPads are necessary in today's world, I did my time with them and taught during the COVID years, etc - I'm not a fan and I always promote time spent outdoors or playing old fashioned games or learning in any other way besides the "digital" way). There's probably a lot more I could say about myself, but honestly I'm just looking for occasional or part time work in the field/arena in which I am the most experienced. Thank you for considering me.

Hi – my name is Raquel! I’m currently studying to become a bookkeeper and in the meantime I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’m a Christian homeschool mom of three wonderful girls (11, 8, and 3), and I truly enjoy being around children. With over 11 years of hands-on experience as a stay-at-home mom, I’m very familiar with the ins and outs of caring for kids, managing a household, and looking after pets. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, small mammals, reptiles, and fish. I love reading with kids, encouraging creativity, and keeping things fun but structured. Families can count on me to be dependable, patient, and attentive to detail.
