Greetings families :) I was born and raised in the Philippines where I gained experience teaching children basic reading, writing, drawing, and conflict resolution during high school. I have been in the US since July 2011. I graduated from Santa Monica College with high honors in Early Childhood Education in June 2019. I earned my BA in Child Development from CA State University Long Beach with Magna Cum Laude honors in Fall 2021. I've gained practicum experience at the Growing Place Ocean Park and Marine Campus which both hold the same philosophy I believe in - constructivism. Through this lens, children learn best through play - based on their interests and engagement, which encompasses a broad spectrum of academic subject matter including science, math, arts, and problem solving. Play also presents the opportunity for children to develop prosocial behavior and self-regulation among peers, necessary to succeed not just in academia but in life. I am also a firm advocate of respectful, responsive, and reciprocal care wherein children are valued with consistency. They are human beings capable of learning through trial and error - born with a drive to engage in the scientific method to reach their own conclusions about the world around them. As a caregiver, it is not only my responsibility to support their development by extending their interests through scaffolding but also follow their parents’ lead with methods and philosophies at home. I have also gained experience at Early Head Start Programs in addition to working for Edgewater Preschool, West Hollywood Preschool, and Westside Children’s Center. I have a current BLS certification, clean driving record/background, and would be willing to take any drug test. I also have up to date immunizations and a negative TB test. Moreover, I am a happy mother of a 5-year old active boy! Growing up, I learned how to play the guitar and drums, how to dance ballet, act in theater plays, and defend myself through Aikido. During my free time, I enjoy surfing, hiking, walking, cooking, cleaning the house, and reading. I also like to paint, draw, and write whenever I can. Now that I have my son, I enjoy playing with him outdoors! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I am open to care for your child at my home, if you have the need. Of course, you are welcome to visit before care is booked. I look forward to being of service to your family. Thank you! Warm regards, Buhay (boo-hi)

Hi! My name is Madeline or Maddie. I hold a bachelor’s degree in History with a minor in Education from UCSD. I have worked with newborns as young as 2 months to children as old as 13. I have about six years of babysitting experience, with four of those years being after I turned 18. I have also previously worked as an elementary school tutor for 3 years as well as privately. I have my own transportation. In addition I am also CPR and First Aid Certified with a Covid Vaccination. I am proficient in American Sign and I am fluent in English. I am a very patient and energetic babysitter. I would love to continue expanding my caregiving experience by babysitting for you. Thank you so much!

Madeline was on time and ready to hop right in at 6am. Our 4 month old loves her and somehow she got him to take multiple naps even while being fussy from teething. She was patient and updated me via text about his feeding & naps. Also, our dog loves her too! We came home to a happy household and everyone enjoyed her! She professional and naturally great at her job. Will definitely hire again.

I have over 30 years of childcare experience both privately and professionally. I am a homeschool parent to 4 young children, including 3 teenagers. While I was in college to obtain a bachelor's in education, I worked as both a nanny and in a daycare for the local school district. I believe that children are full humans deserving of the same respect we would give any adult. I prefer gentle parenting and guidance in lieu of punishment. As a mom, I am well versed with the complex inner workings of running a household. I cook, clean, and everything else for my own family. As for pets, I am a proud kitty mama and have assisted in raising over 50 neonatal kittens as a foster volunteer.

Hi my name is Zayneb. I am a student at CSULB. I am offering childcare and petcare. I am a middle child of 3 siblings. I have a very large extended family and always find myself taking care of the children at family gatherings. I have babysat different families for the last 4 years. The responsibilities I took on were preparing dinner, getting the children ready for bed, going to the park, diapering, and putting the children to sleep. I have babysat ages <1 year-10 years. I am responsible, dependable, flexible, safety-conscious, quick thinking, and patient. I am BLS CPR certified. I have a dog, so walking your pet can be included in my service. I am confident in doing dishes, vacuuming, picking up, and laundry.

She was great!

Hi, I'm Jazmine! I have 10 years of experience with children, 9 years of experience with children under 3 and 7 years of experience with infants under 1. I am BLS CPR certified and proficient in Spanish. I tend to take a screen-free approach, unless the parents say otherwise, to encourage creativity and flexible thinking. I believe in developing a sense of trust, communication and respect with all families I work with. If you have any pets, I can make sure that their needs are met as well. Additionally, I am not opposed to doing light housework (laundry, dishes, tidying up), to keep things running smoothly once I depart. I am available for occasional date nights, ad hoc days, and overnights. Like what you see? I hope to hear from you soon!!!
