Hi parents! I am Elena, an outgoing and friendly undergrad college student currently attending Sac State!🐝 I'm studying to become a mental health clinician at either elementary or middle school, so working with children is something I'm in the long-run for! I'm the eldest to three younger siblings (aged 10 months, 9, and 18) and care for several cats, dogs, and lizards in my home! I have three years of working with children under my belt as an after school program leader to first through sixth graders. I am CPR/AED certified. I am also currently working at Village Montessori in Carmichael caring for preschoolers from 18 months to TK. From these experiences, I am prepared to watch over children at any stage of development! I am flexible to the needs of each family, and I would love to meet yours!
Hello - my name is Kimberly. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care and household care. I raised 2 children and now helping with my 3 grandchildren. We read, listen to music, go for walks, do puzzles, bake, garden and watch movies. I have 3 dogs of various sizes: Iris (Chihuahua/Mini Pin) Hercules (Shorkie) and Bentley (Poodle/Jack Russell). I have a community fish tank and have never been without animals in my household. I have previously had Guinea pigs, turtles, lizards, rats and cats.
I babysat sisters and nieces throughout the years. I’m good at my job and I love to care and help others. I have 4yrs experience in Senior Elderly Care. Also looked after their pets(cats) while on duty. I’m well educated and did HR/Finance work for the past 15 years.
Hi! My name is Gianna, and I’m a student at Sac City College offering childcare and household help. I enjoy watching kids and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. I’m patient, responsible, and always attentive to children’s needs. I also love dogs and am happy to work with families who have pets. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
I am an older sister so growing up I would act as the second mom and be very protective over my little sister. In general growing up I was always one of the oldest kids with family friends and just family in general. I was raised surrounded by kids and that is really where I grew the love for them and especially the patience for them. I am such a happy fun, loving and loud person to where I keep the kids entertained or if they get bored I just make up random games on the spot and have some fun. In my first 3 years of high school I coached one of the local youth cheer teams. I worked with ages 4-12 in this role. This past summer before I moved here for school and now I am a seasonal worker I am an employee at Carmel Valley Ranch. I work at the kids camp there. It basically is a everyday day care center where it is a play room where we do crafts, read books, play games, and take the kids outside to enjoy the fresh air. With this and young kids having fun we do clean up the room a good amount of times during the day. With being surrounded by kids through out my whole life I am not studying to go into education for the ages 1st-3rd.
