Find nannies in Ladera Ranch, CA

I am a dedicated and compassionate recent graduate in Physician Assistant Studies, currently seeking professional opportunities while awaiting completion of my credentialing. Before entering PA school, earned a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of California, Riverside, where I was a four year collegiate athlete and served as captain during my final year. My preclinical and clinical experience have provided me with a strong foundation in both medical and interpersonal care. I have worked in a pediatric ophthalmology clinic and on the adolescent unit of an inpatient psychiatric hospital prior completing my Masters. During my pediatrics rotation, I cared for patients ranging from neonates to adolescents, further strengthening my clinical skills and my commitment to providing compassionate, family-centered care. In addition, I have over three years of experience teaching tennis to children ages 3-18, which honed my ability to connect with young people, communicate effectively, and foster growth through patience and encouragement.

am very passionate about working with children. I hold a PhD in Architecture and have many years of experience teaching at schools and universities in my home country. Through my teaching career, I have gained valuable experience working with children and young people, along with a strong understanding of child psychology. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs, and I strive to create a safe, supportive, and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel confident.

Hi, I’m Rachelle! I offer dependable, engaging childcare and pet care with a strong mix of personal and professional experience. I’ve cared for children of all ages, including hands-on experience with my 11 nieces and nephews (ages 1–15). I currently provide ongoing care for a 13-year-old, including overnight stays when needed, so I’m comfortable with both daytime routines and nighttime responsibilities. My background includes a Bachelor’s in Business Administration and a Master’s in Criminal Justice focused on juvenile development, along with 14 years of service in the U.S. Navy. This has shaped my reliability, structure, and ability to connect with and mentor kids of all ages. I also have training through therapy school, which helps me communicate effectively with children and adolescents. I love incorporating creativity, sports, and music into my time with kids. I grew up playing trumpet, baseball, and softball, and enjoy keeping children active and engaged. In addition to childcare, I have over 25 years of experience caring for pets, including administering medication and supporting animals with special needs. I’m happy to help with occasional or part-time care, including overnights, and always aim to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for your family.
