Hello, I am Belle! I am a professional Special EducationTeacher. I have several Associate degrees and a dual BS at Grand Canyon University for Early Childhood Education and Early Childhood Special Education. I am in the midst of my MAE program through Alliant International University. I would love to find a PT position caring for and/or teaching children. I am open to being considered for backup care. I can also cook and perform light housekeeping duties for the children. I need to update my CPR, AED, and 1st Aid certification for infants, children, and adults. My vaccinations are current and I also have excellent references and reviews. Currently, I am an Education Specialist for a school district around the Sacramento area, but I do live in Idaho and go home on every school break/holiday. I am here to be close by my 93 year old grandmother. I will be staying in California indefinitely, but again I do go home on school breaks. I have over 34 years of experience taking care of (nanny/governess/babysitter), teaching, tutoring, and working with children. I have taught and/or worked with infants through high schoolers and adults with disabilities. I have experience with special needs/disabilities, special diets, multiples, and mixed ages.I started my professional career as an Early Childhood Educator in 1991. I have taught in Head Start programs, private faith-based preschool and Kindergarten programs, as well as corporate preschools, Sunday School programs, public schools, and private homes. I am available for after-school tutoring and I charge a higher fee than my babysitter/nanny rate. I give a military, single parent, and civil servant discount. I am honest, kind, loyal, loving, highly communicative, ethical, responsible, and thoughtful.I am an attachment style caregiver. I am happy to interact with your children as you wish so long as it does not violate the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct for Early Childhood Professionals.

I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best as you try to find the right caregiver for your family. :-) *Please note that I request a five hour minimum for babysitting and last minute cancellations (less than 48hrs) are subject to the five hour minimum. Thank you. Belle

I have been babysitting for other families for 11 years now. I have experience working with children 3 months to 18+ years of age. I obtained my Master's Degree in Occupational Therapy, so I also have experience with children who have special needs and/or medical complexities. I am comfortable watching multiple children at once, as I have previously worked for daycare centers. I enjoy facilitating various activities for kids that are both fun and educational. Several other duties that I've helped with include small meal prep, homework help, and light house cleaning. As I do have a primary full-time job, I am only looking to pick up occasional gigs (my availability may be flexible depending on the date(s) and times requested). Please feel free to contact me at anytime if you are looking for help! :)

With over 30 years of hands-on experience nurturing children of all ages, I bring a lifelong passion and natural gift for childcare. Affectionately known as “The Baby Whisperer,” I have an intuitive ability to connect with infants and young children—creating joyful, engaging, and enriching environments wherever I go. Children are naturally drawn to me, and I truly speak their language—whether I’m soothing a newborn, connecting with a toddler, or helping a preschooler learn through play. I am currently work with children with special needs ranging in age from 3 to 26, as well as supporting 4th and 5th graders in school settings. These roles have strengthened my ability to provide individualized, compassionate care while fostering confidence and independence in each child. I’ve had the privilege of nannying for two wonderful families and raising my own children while being a stay-at-home mom for over 36 years. Caring for children doesn’t feel like work—it’s what brings me joy and purpose. I love to sing with children, do arts and crafts, and play both indoor and outdoor games. I weave learning into everyday activities—teaching letters, shapes, colors, and phonics in playful, creative ways. Time outside is one of my favorite things, whether we’re exploring nature, playing in the dirt (when allowed!), or enjoying movement and fresh air. I also have experience teaching swimming and helping children feel confident and safe in the water. I’ve completed 12 units in Early Childhood Development and am currently pursuing a degree in Child Development, giving me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and thrive. I’m also pursuing studies in Physical Education to support motor development and encourage active, healthy lifestyles. Highlights: 30+ years caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens Experience with children with special needs (ages 3–26) and elementary school students College coursework in Child Development CPR/First Aid certified Passionate about music, creative arts, outdoor play, and learning through fun Open to roles as a nanny, caregiver, or “bonus grandma” My Philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create joyful, structured spaces where they feel free to explore, grow, and become the amazing individuals they’re meant to be.
