I’m a graduate student at pacific college of health and science (acupuncture) but only have classes 3X a week I want a part time I will truly enjoy and I always have fun with kids and pets! I worked at camp James summer camp and at think together an afterschool tutoring program (Santa Ana location). I was a caregiver for 9months my 87 nonna who had two spinal surgeries i gave her showers, helped her walk and made her food and took her out in a wheelchair to her favorite places. I’m also very creative I love crafts, singing, dancing, yoga and going out in nature! I believe in less screen time for hands on engagement.

Priscilla $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Priscilla. I am a full time school counselor for a TK-8 school. I’m offering child care, senior care, pet care and house hold services. I love my current job but am hoping to be able to work part time in addition to what I currently do. Most of my experience comes from working with my family/ friends and referrals they made on my behalf. My experience with children ranges from working with infants, coaching, educating and providing mental health supports. In other held positions I also organized/ran children events such as crafting activities, workshops, and cheer teams. This experience has been both professional and personal over the span of 18 years. Senior care and animal care has been primarily personal experience. The level of care I provided varied based on needs. However, I feel comfortable and confident to provide this type of support to families.

Amber $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a 25 year old college graduate looking for some night work as I work full time during the day. I have a background in medical, working for 3 years as a hospital corpsman in an inpatient and labor/delivery ward, I am first aid qualified, and I am currently active duty military. My childcare background comes from a mixture of infant care while working labor and delivery and also having 6 siblings (the youngest of which I adopted due to my father’s death). I also have a background in working as a dog trainer (with a specialty in huskies and German Shepards) and am trained in basic pet first aid. While working inpatient, I also dealt with many elderly patients as far as in-unit hospice cases, and I am more than open to helping care for anyone whether they are at the start or end of their life! I only speak English (and some German/Russian for dog training), so households that mainly speak another language likely won’t be a good fit. For any households looking for overnight care, I will set hard return times to ensure I can make it to work by 0700. Please reach out if you have any questions! I’m an open book and know that entrusting someone with those we care for can be stressful.
