Booked by 3 families in Pomona, CA

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.

I’m a nursing student with previous experience working with children at a daycare center. I also have nieces and nephews, so I’m very comfortable caring for kids of different ages. I’m BLS certified, responsible, patient, and focused on creating a safe, caring, and fun environment for every child I care for :)

Leila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been babysitting since I was 10 years old as I am the oldest of 5 children. I currently work at Stanford Children’s Hospital as a Patient Companion and my duties were similar to babysitting duties and much more. I have worked at Stanford Children’s Hospital for nearly 4 years and previous to that I worked in senior homes as a CNA. I also have my CPR/BLS certification in pediatrics and adults. I have also volunteered to provide companionship to seniors in hospice care! My experience at Stanford has taught me so much about children such as how to promote developmental skills, newborn care, or even keep kids entertained while maintaining a safe environment. I have a bachelors in public health and a minor in women’s health issues and I am currently pursuing nursing school! I am relocating from the Bay Area which is why I have to resign from my job at Stanford Children’s, but I look forward to sitting for you!!

Megan $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Megan and I am currently working at a Daycare/Preschool setting. I have been working with infants and toddlers, I am offering childcare and preschool age care. I am also offering Household services (I can run errands no problem!) I love working with preschoolers, I have been doing it since I was 30 years old for a total of 8 years altogether. My responsibilities have included supervision of children, and doing crafts and coloring with them, putting them down for naps preparing snacks and lunches (per the school schedule) and assisting with the potty. My other experience has been with infants and toddlers following after the preschool age recently; which I follow their feeding schedules along with singing songs, playing with them, diaper changes on the hour, then putting them down for scheduled naps in infant’s cribs. I have received and completed my CPR/AED & First Aid training Certificate for Infants, toddlers and kids. I am not fond of really big dogs, but I am happy with working with families with medium size to small puppies or dogs in the home. I am not a cat person at all.
