My schedule is flexible, and I am available to start the week of March 16th. Family Assistance (4 years of experience) I can help with meal prep (lunch and dinner), keeping the home organized and tidy, reorganizing children’s closets, sorting outgrown clothes for donation, and running household errands.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Opal

Hi, I’m Viviana! 💕 I’m an Industrial Engineering student and an experienced childcare provider who truly enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn and grow. I started caring for children at a young age through my nephew, and I began babysitting professionally at 17. I have also worked as an au pair for the past two years, caring for children from newborns to school-age. During my first year as an au pair, I cared for a baby from 3 months old to 1½ years old, as well as two girls between 8 and 11. During my second year, I cared for a newborn, a 6-year-old boy, and a 3-year-old girl. I have also volunteered at churches, helping care for and supervise children. I am CPR certified and qualified through my au pair program to care for children from 1 month old through teenagers. I feel comfortable with all aspects of childcare, including preparing meals, feeding, bathing, bedtime routines, playing, helping with homework, and keeping children safe and entertained. I am also a confident driver and can help with transportation when needed. I’m a responsible, patient, friendly, and caring person. I love teaching children new things, encouraging their independence, and learning from their personalities and interests. My goal is always to make children feel safe, happy, and comfortable while giving parents peace of mind. I’m currently in Andover, MA, and I’ll be moving to Mountain View, CA in September. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and help care for your little ones! 💕

Hello Families, My name is Dora. I graduated from the University of Washington and am currently pursuing a Master’s in Teaching and California Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. Before that, I worked as a preschool teacher and gained experience in early childhood education. My experience includes working with children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to preschoolers and elementary school students through 5th grade. I’m CPR certified and a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator, with additional training in autism and neurodiversity. Working with children is something I truly enjoy, especially getting to know each child’s personality and interests. Reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, board games, and trips to the park are some of my favorite things to do with kids. Activities can always be adjusted based on the child’s interests and the family’s routine. Currently, I’m looking for part-time and occasional childcare opportunities and would love to get to know your family! BOOKING POLICY: For schedule changes within 48 hours that reduce the booked hours, the original hours are expected to be honored. Thank you for understanding! :) Warmly, Dora
