My name is Alisha Townley! I have always loved working with children of all ages. To me, watching kids means fostering a happy and productive environment to play and learn. This means doing art, crafts, reading, music/singing, playing outside, and creatively getting the little ones involved in cooking/housework in a way they can enjoy! I have experience watching kids of all ages in a gym day-care setting, in homes, and teaching swim lessons. I also have extensive experience working with and watching children with special needs. I am also willing to couple child care with house work, such as dishes / laundry, as appropriate according to the needs of the children first.

We are so grateful for the wonderful care and patience shown to our special needs daughter. She was treated with kindness, compassion, and genuine attention, which gave our family great peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the people she works with, and we highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring caregiver.

Hi! My name is Joana Rivera and I am a student in college studying Bio-chemistry hoping to pursue a career in pediatrics! I grew up around children younger than me my whole life so I am pretty familiar. I love going to the park, coloring, etc. I also tutor and make a bunch of afternoon lunches! I also have been a tutor since I was 15 years old.

Hi there! With over 10 years of dedicated experience working with children ranging from curious toddlers to dynamic teenagers my heart has always been in care and education. Today I am proud to work as a preschool teacher right here in Redding! My approach to care is rooted in learning, kindness and compassion. I believe children thrive best in an environment where they feel safe, valued and deeply supported. Known for my patience and nurturing spirit, I strive to make every child feel special and confident. In addition to my extensive background in early childhood education, I am also a registered Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). My years of experience working in skilled nursing facilities and providing compassionate elder care have deeply shaped my patience, hyper vigilant safety awareness and calm demeanor in any situation. Whether I am helping a little one with preschool milestones or caring for loved ones of any age responsibility and genuine heart are always at the core of what I do. I am so excited to meet you and your family!

💕 Hi!! I’m Alli, I’m 18 and from Red Bluff! I’ve been caring for and looking after kids for as long as I can remember! I come from a big family with 7 siblings, and 3 of my siblings have autism and behavioral challenges. Growing up around different personalities and needs has given me a huge soft spot for children and taught me patience, understanding, and how to make every child feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve also helped in daycares and special-needs classes while growing up, so I’m comfortable caring for kids with different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I genuinely love being around kids, listening to them, learning from them, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and heard! I’m here to make your life a little easier and take some of the stress and mess off your shoulders! Whether you need occasional babysitting, date-night help, or regular childcare, I’d love to help. 💓 I would absolutely love to meet you and your little ones soon! Feel free to message me with any questions! 🧸
