Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

With over five years of professional childcare experience, I provide high-quality, dependable, and nurturing care focused on children’s safety, development, and emotional well-being. I have worked with children from 3 months to 13 years old, creating structured, engaging, and developmentally appropriate environments that support each child’s individuality and growth. I am CPR, First Aid, and EpiPen certified, and trained to respond calmly and efficiently in any situation, ensuring a safe and secure environment for the children in my care. My experience includes working with children with autism, which has strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide individualized support based on each child’s unique needs. In addition to childcare, I offer comprehensive household support, including home organization, pet care, errands, transportation, and meal preparation. I take pride in maintaining a well-structured and harmonious home environment that helps families function smoothly and stress-free. I have been caring for children in the United States for the past two years (ages 2–7), and I also bring extensive long-term experience in Mexico, where I have worked with children ranging from 1 to 6 years old since 2013. I am a native Spanish speaker with an upper-intermediate level of English, which I continue to improve daily through professional experience and communication. I value clear, respectful, and reliable communication with families. I am dedicated, proactive, and deeply committed to providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can thrive.

Cassandra $30 per hour for 1 child

I studied Engineering at San José State University and have several years of experience working with children. I worked as an after-school STEM Educator in the Santa Clara School District at an elementary school, where I taught kids basic engineering concepts through hands-on activities, building projects, and problem-solving exercises. I enjoyed making learning fun while helping students develop creativity, teamwork, and confidence. I also worked as a YMCA instructor, teaching children basketball and soccer. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and enjoy creating a safe and positive environment where kids can learn and have fun.
