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.
Hello I’m Mariela! I enjoy working with kids. I have a background working with kids ages 0-22 years as a therapist at clinics, in homes, and schools. Before I have worked in the schools as a tutor for elementary schools. I have recently been taking care of my nephew since he was born who is now 10 months. I am currently CPR certified and bilingual in Spanish. If you need any assistance with housekeeping I’m more than happy to help. A little about me I love the outdoors, baking, and listening to music.
I am a 22-year-old who recently graduated from the University of California, Irvine with a bachelor’s degree in Sociology, and I plan to start a respiratory therapy program this March. I am Mexican American and the youngest of seven siblings. I can cook basic meals, and I have a driver’s license. My interests include reading and trying new coffee shops. I also enjoy arts and crafts.
I am a very nurturing, caring, experienced and reliable mom of two college age boys. I have always been passionate about children and especially love working with infants to age 4. I started babysitting when I was 15 years old and after college I was a full time nanny for a special needs infant. I was also a respite care worker (part time) and administered medication and assisted a quadriplegic woman with her exercises and daily routines. I was a preschool teacher for 11 years and also worked as a behavior therapist, for over a year, for children diagnosed with autism. As a preschool teacher I worked with all ages, but for 7 years I taught the 3-4 year old class at Bnai Simcha Preschool In Pasadena. I especially love children’s literature and always had a very creative and engaging classroom! I have a BA in Sociology and have taken 19 units in early childhood education. I recently renewed my CPR and First Aid certifiication. I took the last year and a half off of work because my son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and hashimotos,, and I also wanted to be more available for my mom who is in the late middle stage of dementia. I look forward to working part time with 1-3 children and finding a family who is “a great fit.”
