Hi, my name is Lanae! I’m 23 years old and live in Fullerton, California. I have 6 years of experience working with children, with a specialty in school-age children, along with 3 years of professional daycare experience caring for children ranging from 6 weeks to 12 years old. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a valid driver’s license, and am comfortable providing a safe, dependable, and nurturing environment for children of different ages and developmental stages.

Hi, my name is Megan and I am currently working at a Daycare/Preschool setting. I have been working with infants and toddlers, I am offering childcare and preschool age care.

My responsibilities have included supervision of children, and doing crafts and coloring with them, putting them down for naps preparing snacks and lunches (per the school schedule) and assisting with the potty. My other experience has been with infants and toddlers following after the preschool age recently; which I follow their feeding schedules along with singing songs, playing with them, diaper changes on the hour, then putting them down for scheduled naps in infant’s cribs. I have received and completed my CPR/AED & First Aid training Certificate for Infants, toddlers and kids. I am not fond of really big dogs, but I am happy with working with families with medium size to small puppies or dogs in the home. I am not a cat person at all.
