Hello! I taught previously and have experience with kids in middle school as well as high school. I have experience private tutoring in subjects such as history, political science, science, and writing. I have a degree in political science as well as art concentrating in Ceramics so I love to show kids to play with clay and express their creativity through forms that are a blast to play with. I also grew up with pets and I have lots of experience training medium sized breeds and taking care of dogs and cats. I also love cooking, I grew up in a big Mexican family so I love cooking with flavor and involving the kids in baking or making fun foods like tamales.

Hi, I am Jeanette. I attended West Texas A&M. I was on the West Valley Women's Soccer and Swim team. I love the outdoors and being active. At the age of fourteen, I started working with kids at Pinehurst Cabana Club every summer. I teach all ages how to swim from 16 weeks old to 72 years young. I work at Pinhurst every summer for the past five years and I love every minute of it. I also am a referee for soccer dealing with a lot of 10 and under kids. I enjoy working and playing with kids. I also assist as a referee for soccer. During my middle school years, I worked with autistic elementary students who needed a little more assistance.

Hi, my name is Nancy and I have been working with children ranging in age from 3 months to 15 years old for approximately 21 years . I have a Teacher permit through the state of California and an Associate in Science degree in the field of Early Childhood Education. Currently I provide early intervention services to children in their homes, working on any developmental delays they have. I coach parents on how to play with their child as part of their daily routine. In addition, I have a business as a special education advocate, helping parents through the IEP process. My child care experience began many years ago as a babysitter for families in my neighborhood. I have always enjoyed working with children and experiencing the joy of watching them grow, learn and explore the world around them. I worked as a nanny in Hawaii while also working as a youth development mentor at the Boys and Girls Club of Maui. My experience teaching at child care centers allowed me the opportunities to care for children as young as 3 months old, which included daily routines of diapering, feeding and napping, as well as reading, singing and soothing. I have experience with tummy time, bottle feeding, determining why an infant may be upset and of course, building a trusting relationship. As the children got older, I was an integral part of their development from crawling and scooting to assisted walking, to walking without assistance; from bottles to cups and finger foods, and language development. A big part of my day was also spent fostering social emotional development Activities that I enjoy doing with children include art, music, dance, gross and fine motor movement, sensory, science, reading and outdoor play. I pride myself on being creative and resourceful when it comes to planning fun activities and keeping children engaged. In my free time I enjoy hiking, camping, reading, surfing and other ocean sports. I have recently taken archery lessons and love it! If you are seeking a trustworthy, experienced loving caregiver I hope to hear from you soon and meet your family. Thank you.
