Dear Families: I AM LOOKING FOR A JOB DURING WEEK MORNINGS FROM 7:00 AM UNTIL AROUND 3:00 PM. There is some flexibility. My name is Maria Elena. I’m originally from El Salvador. I hold a valid California driver's license. I've lived in the Bay Area for 33 years. I earned an Associate Degree in Arts and completed 12 credit units in early childhood development. I have 20 years of experience working with children from infants to 10-year-olds. Activities: I truly enjoy spending time with children doing a variety of activities, from reading books to exploring places nearby, such as the library, the Zoo, museums, aquariums, and parks. I am also happy to care for the children's things and help with light organizing and cooking simple meals. I expect to work in a good environment and offer the best of myself to the children. Please, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
“Elena arrived early, and was caring and professional. My toddler enjoyed playing with her! Would love to have her care for him again. ”
Hi my name is Alyssa! I have been babysitting and working with kids for over 9 years. I have experience with cooking, cleaning, and organizing. Currently I am a preschool teacher and have worked with children from 18m and on. When I come to your house to watch your children, I always bring activities for them to do. Whether it’s arts and crafts or playing with cars or dinosaurs I love to sit alongside your child and help them learn through play by asking them questions about what they are playing with and also asking questions to get to know them. I am very good with taking care multiple children as I take care of 8 kids in my classroom daily by myself. Let me know if you have questions and want to set up a phone call or video call.
Hi! My name is Alondra, and I am currently a senior at the University of San Francisco majoring in Nursing. My goal is to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and supporting their growth and well-being. I offer reliable, compassionate childcare whenever my school schedule allows. I am CPR certified and a registered caregiver through the state, with experience caring for both children and my own grandparents. My healthcare background has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to remain calm in different situations, giving parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, so I am happy to communicate with bilingual families or help children practice Spanish. I’ve also been dancing since I was 3 years old and love incorporating fun, creative activities like dancing, crafts, reading, outdoor play, and games into my time with kids. I love dogs, so I’m more than comfortable caring for pets as well! My goal is to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their children, and I strive to be dependable, attentive, and communicative every step of the way. I look forward to meeting your family!
“Prompt, communicative and a hit with our baby boy! Hired before and would hire again!”
