Hi parents, my name is Melissa. I am 30 and currently in school completing science classes and now applying to nursing programs. Because of this career path I’m choosing, I have sought after my CPR certification and an EMT certification. I’m certified by American Heart Association and certified by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians, as well as the state of CA. I completed my EMT training at Citrus College. I am now working full-time as an EMT. I began babysitting when I was 11 years old, taking care of my little brother and any children belonging to family and friends. Not only have I babysat children, but I have coached and tutored them as well. I was previously employed by Jumpstart (AmeriCorps) to help teach preschool children in low income communities. Because of this, I took 2 child development courses and extensive training, which helped me to continue working with children through UrbanSitter since 2015. Side note: In my video, i accidentally said that I have experience with children between 2 and 3, but I have babysat children between the ages of 2 and 14. I sent in another video to correct it, but Urbansitter approved of the wrong video. For multiple family bookings: Rates listed below are for a single family household. If 2 or more families are sharing babysitting services, I ask the each have their own starting pay at the CA hourly minimum wage. Thank you for understanding.

Very friendly and experience in taking 18 months old

Hello my name is Priscilla, I have over 9 years of experience working in preschool settings as both a teacher's assistant and a lead teacher. During COVID, I supported families by providing in-home preschool instruction and assisting with virtual learning for kindergarten students. I recently graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Psychology, with an emphasis in Child Development, and I am passionate about supporting children as they learn, grow, and thrive. Along with childcare, I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, errands, and meal prep. I also have an 8-seater minivan and a clean driving record, making me available for safe and reliable carpooling when needed. For the past four years, I've been a stay-at-home mom, which has further deepened my understanding of the patience, care, and creativity that young children need. | look forward to partnering with your family and providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your child.
