Kasiya 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kasiya I’m a 21-year-old college student at Johnson County Community College, currently pursuing my degree in Respiratory Care with the goal of becoming an RRT. I was born and raised in Overland Park, KS, and have been working in childcare for 7 years in a variety of settings—including summer camps, daycares, after-school programs, and in-home care. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens (0–14 years old), and I’m also great with pets. I’m CPR certified and approved to supervise groups of up to 10 children at a time. My experience includes homework help, arts & crafts, planning fun group activities, and keeping a safe and positive environment. I’m also happy to assist with light cleaning, meal prep, and household tasks to help things run smoothly. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and energetic, and I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging atmosphere for every child in my care!

“Kasiya was great! She watched our daughter and was very reliable, a great communicator and our gal seemed to have a good time. I would have her back again. I recommend her!”

Hello parents, my name is Estefany Campos and I'm looking for a new family to support with child care and light help around the house. I am a medical assistant who left the hospital (UCSF) to pursue a higher education. I am currently a college student doing prerequisites for nursing school. Along my educational journey I have taken courses in psychology, life span and development, and early child development and education. While doing externship as a medical assistant, I spent a lot of time around babies and children of all ages. Since then I have accumulated over six years of experience working with multiple ages and multiple children at times. I am first aid, CPR, and AED certified. I'm bilingual, English and Spanish. I enjoy spending time outside and long walks too. I live in San Pablo, and have reliable transportation. Feel free to send me a message if you think I could be a good fit for your family and your needs. Have a wonderful day.
