Hello! My name is Bella, and I have spent the past two years working in early childhood education. I began as a preschool teacher and now also work as an after-school program leader for TK-age children, ages 4 to 5. Growing up in a big Italian family, I have always loved caring for those around me, and that passion naturally grew into working with young children. I especially enjoy working with this age group and creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can learn, play, and grow with confidence. I am very crafty and love doing creative, hands-on projects with children to spark their imagination. I also enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring parks, whether that’s going on little nature walks or playing games outside. As an English major in college, I have a deep love of literature, and reading to children has always been one of my favorite activities. Story time is still the highlight of my day. I would describe myself as happy, lighthearted, and easygoing, and I love creating a joyful, engaging space where children feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn.

Hello! My name is Griselda. Many call me Gris or Grizzy for short. I am offering afternoon and weekend childcare as well as care during school breaks(for example: winter, mid-winter, spring and summer break). I have been working with children from a young age and as I grew older, I turned my genuine love for children into a professional occupation. For the last three years, I have been working at a preschool, teaching children from the ages 2-5. Despite working with these ages, I am open to working with children of any age. I am CPR certified and have taken multiple Early Childhood Education courses at COM where I learned how to keep children safe, and how to develop a nurturing environment where they can thrive.

Hello families, I am available from 4PM on weekdays and some hours on weekends. I current work as a nanny watching a 5 month old baby. I have over 5 years experience with kids from 4 months to 11 years old but most of them were watching babies and toddlers. I have experience starting feeding them solid, rolling over, tummy time, bathing, doing sensory activities to help them sit up/crawl. I have experience with twins and taking care of multiple kids at the same time and dairy intolerant. Besides keep your kids safe I can provide nice activities according to their age I am not a teacher but I like reading about kid's development and get some ideas of sensory/motor skill's activities from and also provide a bilingual environment since Besides speaking English I speak Portuguese as a first language and I have some knowledge in Spanish. I also have Red Cross's first aid and CPR certificate, I am sure that the families that I worked for would be happy to provide references about me, so don't hesitate to ask for it. Thank you

I really enjoy working with kids and have experience caring for children ages 1-13. I'm comfortable handling multiple kids, helping with homework, making snacks, and keeping everyone entertained. I'm patient, responsible, and good at building rapport with both kids and parents. I have a clean driving record and take safety seriously. I'm also pretty flexible and good about communicating if anything comes up. Kids tend to like hanging out with me because I keep things fun but also respect whatever rules parents have in place. I'm reliable and show up on time. A bit about me: I have a bachelor's degree from Chico State and spent 9 years working in tech. I'm now making a move to more community based work because I want to spend my time helping people directly. Happy to share my LinkedIn so you can see recommendations from past coworkers and bosses. I'm also happy to help as a family assistant with things like dishes, laundry, returning packages, errands, and admin tasks to free up your time for work and family. Happy to help with pickups, drop-offs, activities, and light household stuff. Let me know if you want to chat more about what you're looking for! I do require 50% of the scheduled rate for last-minute changes within 48 hours of service.
