Hi! I’m Ro, from Argentina. I’m a kindergarten teacher! I’ve been living in San Francisco for almost 2 years taking care of children. I really like and enjoy been around kids! I have a lot of experience with children from 6 months to 5 years old, but I also enjoy to play with older children. My favorite activity to do with the children is to play, build and do many arts and crafts! I have the CPR certificate.

Booked by 1 family in Sausalito, CA

Hello! My name is Ingrid, and I am currently a Medical Assistant as well as a student. I am offering part-time childcare services for infants and toddlers. I bring several years of hands-on experience caring for both children and seniors. Through my past work with IHSS & babysitting. I have provided compassionate support to elderly clients, and I have also spent years caring for children, including my nieces and nephews, whom I absolutely adore. These experiences have helped me develop patience, attentiveness, and a genuine love for helping others. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, light meal preparation, and maintaining a clean, organized environment. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and positive space for every child in my care. Please note that I am allergic to cats; however, I am more than happy to work with families who have dogs. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide dependable, caring childcare.

“Ingrid was great with our 16 month old. She was patient and observant with him, and he took to her right away. She always asked questions and made sure we were comfortable with what she was doing, and was a good communicator throughout. Despite working with us for the first time, her time with us went by really smoothly and she was very adaptable. ”

I am able to connect to children. I had a cat for 19 years. She currently lives with my parents because we moved. We recently got a dog as well. I am good with pets as I grew up with a cat. I’m fun, and able to connect with kids. I love board games, card games, building legos, coloring, and doing puzzles. I am CPR certified. I look forward to connecting with you. I’m looking to pick up some jobs on the side for some extra income. I look forward to meeting you!
