Hello! My name is Blanca, and I am a caring, reliable, and experienced childcare provider. I have over 10 years of experience as an early childhood teacher working with children from birth to age 5, along with 3 years of experience as an education coach supporting children, teachers, and families. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychopedagogy ( evaluated by Spantran ) which gives me a strong understanding of child development, behavior, and emotional needs. I am patient, nurturing, and calm, and I focus on creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and secure. I am CPR and First Aid certified, Food Handler certified, and bilingual in English and Spanish. Safety is always my top priority, and I am very attentive to routines, hygiene, and family preferences. I enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate play, reading, and quiet activities, especially during evening and bedtime routines. Parents describe me as dependable, respectful, and easy to communicate with. I value trust and consistency and take pride in providing quality care. I am available for evening care after 4:30 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends, including date nights. I look forward to supporting your family and caring for your little ones.
I have one year of experience working as a caregiver for a family in California, where I supported an elderly mother with daily care while also helping maintain a calm, organized, and loving home. In this role, I was responsible not only for senior care, but also for caring for two dogs and two cats, ensuring they were well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. I also 5 years of pet sitting experience via Rover with 5-star reviews and have many references. This experience taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for every member of the household. I also have experience caring for children through helping look after my younger cousins. I naturally connect well with kids, and they tend to feel comfortable and at ease around me. I am gentle, attentive, and enjoy engaging with children in a positive and supportive way. I am eager to learn, flexible with routines, and happy to follow a family’s specific needs and values. I take pride in being dependable, kind, and compassionate, and I truly enjoy helping families feel supported and cared for.
Greetings! My name is Savannah and I’m currently a sophomore at the University of Kansas. I’m available for babysitting, pet, and household services. I completed a three year child-care course and am CPR certified. I started babysitting 7 years ago, and have dealt with children of all ages. Normally, I opt for playing games with children which encourage the use of creativity and imagination. Simultaneously, I have experience in tutoring, so I can help with homework if required. I am an emphatic dog lover, and have volunteered at the SPCA regularly for nearly two years. I’ve handled many creatures, big and small, over this time, therefore I am confident in my abilities to care for any dog. If you feel you need a hand in a cluttered house, I would be happy to lend you one. At times life can get messy, and our living spaces can as well. I am here to help make your life a little easier, and not to judge, so I assure you that there is no need to feel ashamed of whatever condition your house is in. If you are lacking certain cleaning supplies then I will bring them myself. If you feel that I may be fit to fulfill any of your needs, or have any additional inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact me! Thank you for your time, and have a lovely day :)
I've spent 14+ years in education as a reading and math tutor and science teacher. I'm patient, playful, reliable, and skilled at problem solving, building trust, and fostering respect.
Hi, I’m Keira! I’m a college student who loves working with kids and creating a fun, safe environment. I’m patient, responsible, and have lots of experience babysitting, helping with homework, and keeping kids engaged with activities. I’m also great with pets and happy to help with them too.
