Hi families! I’m Paula. I’ve been working in childcare since 2017 – over 9 years of experience with children ages 6 months to 16 years. I also spent 2 years as an au pair, so I’m very comfortable being a warm, reliable part of a family’s daily life. My current situation: I’m currently caring for a wonderful 2-year-old, but I previously was taking care her sibling before he started school. I’ve been with my most recent family for 5 years – but both of their children are starting to go to school full-time, so I’m respectfully transitioning to a new opportunity. Safety & reliability: . Fully vaccinated . Own car + clean driving record . References available from past families What I bring to your family: I’m loving, patient, and proactive. I love helping children, I enjoy the outdoors – parks, hiking, exploring nature – but I’m also great at indoor crafts, games, and keeping things organized. I cook, I clean up, and I show up on time. I’d love to support your family – let’s talk!

Hello, my name is Jocelyn, and I am 26 years old. I bring extensive experience in educational settings, having worked in both elementary and middle schools over several years. I’m also dedicated and experienced with many years of working closely with infants. Over the years, I’ve gained a deep understanding of infant care, from feeding and diapering to establishing healthy sleep routines and providing nurturing, age- appropriate interaction. I am attentive, patient and always focused on creating a safe, loving environment where your little one can feel secure and thrive. Whether you’re looking for support during those early newborn months or dependable daily care, you can trust that your baby will be in capable and caring hands with me. Currently, I am employed at a middle school, where I am dedicated to fostering students' academic and social development. In addition to my educational background, I offer professional caregiving services for children and pets. I am CPR-certified and committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for those in my care. Safety is my top priority, and I am well-prepared to respond calmly and effectively to any emergency situations. Growing up in a household with dogs, I developed a deep understanding of animal care and responsibility. My commitment to the well-being of both children and pets reflects my dependable and compassionate approach to caregiving. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds. I am available throughout the summer and on weekends to assist with childcare, pet care, or other household needs. Additionally, I am happy to provide transportation to appointments or help with errands as needed, ensuring all tasks are handled with care and attentiveness. My current role at the middle school in the mornings continues until June 19th, after which I am fully available for summer opportunities. I am available now for afternoon care. I look forward to working with your family and providing the exceptional care you deserve in a safe and nurturing environment.

I have over 15 years of experience in taking care of children in various capacities - from occasional/regular part-time babysitting shifts, working as an elementary school health and wellness coordinator (teaching physical education to grades K-5th, nutrition and student leadership), and providing health promotion education to children and families in my current full-time job in the Public Health field. Since I can remember, I’ve always enjoyed and appreciated the opportunities I have to help children learn and develop their skills, values and confidence. I speak Spanish, enjoy to exercise with groups/outdoors, and appreciate musicals/theatre. I currently live in Central Marin and appreciate learning more about your child care needs over the phone :)
