Hi, My name is Laura, and I am a mother of three daughters and a grandmother of five grandchildren. I have raised/cared for children for 35 years. I enjoyed being a Sunday school teacher for young toddlers for two years, as well as leading a preschool class for two years. I have also worked in the home care industry for several years, enjoying the companionship and rewards of working with the elderly. I am a young-at-heart 57 year old mom/nana, who will bring a nurturing environment to children, as well as to the elderly. I am currently looking for part-time work, possibly leading to full-time. Thank you in advance for your consideration
Hi parents here is a little bit about me! My name is Brooke Villwock, and I am 20 years old. I graduated from Anchor Bay High School. I have seven years of experience working with kids and have been nannying for four years. I have cared for children ranging from one month old to 12 years old. During high school, I took Teacher Cadet and Child Development classes, and I also helped my aunt with her in-home daycare during the summers. I am happy to provide transportation to and from activities, and I’m comfortable with meal preparation, cleaning, and pet care. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I enjoy doing crafts and educational activities with children and am looking for a long-term position with a family I can grow with. I also have references. I would love to hear from you! 😊
Hello! My name is Aubrey. I am a dedicated and nurturing child caregiver with over 4 years of professional childcare experience. I am CPR/AED and first aid trained through the American Red Cross. I have a CPI certification through the Crisis Prevention Institute as well. I currently work as a Behavior Technician, caring for and educating autistic children aged 1-5. Prior to this I was a paraprofessional, working with individuals with cognitive disabilities aged 7-26. I am extremely fun-loving and exemplary in setting boundaries and maintaining a safe environment. Your child's safety is my top priority-and the joy they'll experience is my promise.
I have over 10 years of experience with kids, ranging from newborn to school age. Background in education, and love art. I love to do fun activities with the kids.
Hi my name is Moideen! I’m a recent university graduate of the University of California, Berkeley. On the theoretical side, I studied the sociology and psychology of family dynamics and early childhood development. On the practical side, I have much experience sitting for the kids of my friends and friends of my parents and years of experience babysitting dozens of my cousins! I offer care for children, seniors, and pets and can also manage household tasks like cooking, and cleaning as well as other miscellaneous tasks!
