Hi! My name is Bella and I've been babysitting for 9 years. I'm 21 years old and I'm in college at Cal Poly. I'm a very outgoing person who can talk to absolutely anyone. I'm very creative. I love to craft and make things from basically nothing. DIY and Pinterest could literally be my middle name. I have a lot of work experience with children because I work at a children's museum. I love kids because I think they bring out the good side in anyone. They make you become creative and just all around happy. Thank you for reading my bio and I hope you get back to me! :)

Hi, my name is Margaret (Margie) and I have 10+ years of childcare experience. I am an American Red Cross lifeguard/cpr/aed/first aid instructor certified for the past 7 years. I currently have a full-time job 8am-5pm Monday-Friday, therefore I am looking for opportunities to help babysit on a regular or occasional basis outside of these hours. I enjoy working with children and being active outside.

I've worked as an Aid (SCIA) in a Mild to Moderate Early Intervention Preschool Class, and before that I volunteered for a year and a half in a Moderate to Severe Preschool Class Specializing in Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have also been a babysitter for 10 years (beginning when I was 12). I love children, they are so joyful and positive, even when they are having the worst of days. There is something so special and unique about children who have special needs, they just love so much it's incredible, they are superheroes, but not many people recognize them as that. I'm a preschool special education teacher on summer break and just looking to save some extra money for future travel through babysitting and pet sitting while away from the classroom :)

I am 25 and have grown up with child care experience. I am the oldest of seven children, the youngest of whom is a four-year old boy. Growing up, I took care of my siblings while my mom worked jobs to support us. I highly respect a busy working mother. My siblings were of all ages and I learned skills of adaptability, patience, good judgement, and self-motivation. I helped take care of the house and entertained my siblings when we weren’t in school. I was highly motivated in high school and I also played tennis! I graduated from CSU-Monterey Bay in California with a B.A. in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Education. I am very passionate about getting myself and young people outside and interested in science and the natural sciences particularly. I learned how to teach students using experience-based learning and open-ended questions. While in undergraduate school and after graduation I taught in a before (6-10am) and after school program (2-7pm) for children of people who work in agriculture for four years. I worked alone with ~10 kids with a range of ages 5-12 in a class. I had to use strong problem skills, creative quick thinking, and self-management to support their success academically, emotionally, and socially. My style is balancing age appropriate conversation and treating them as adults/their own individual person. I believe in inspiring self-responsibility and motivation through incentives and having a positive relationship with the child while also communicating strengths or needs for support with the parent(s). I created daily activities myself or asked the kids to choose a range of activities (puzzles, coloring, computer school games, homework help, crafts, card games), encouraged outside activities (basketball, versions of tag, laying in the grass listening to music) and participated in general conversation with kids of all ages. Pre-COVID19 I brought them to outdoor field trips and nature walks. During the pandemic my main goal was to keep them emotionally regulated and as motivated in school as possible. Other skills that are worth noting for supporting child success is I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I was CPR certified but will need to renew it as it expired this year. I also have a clean driving record but I have moved from California and will need to get a New York Driving License. Thank you, Jasmin Gonzalez

Hello, my name is Jack, I have 7ish years of child care experience. I'm located just outside of Cal Poly SLO and I have a clean driving record and a car with a high safety rating. I love to cook, especially for a crowd, and I have some house cleaning experience. I'm more than comfortable with pets as I have a cat at home, even though have a mild cat allergy, though that will not be an issue. I'm fully CPR certified and have basic first aid training. Due to my work, I have plenty of experience helping kids with distance learning, homeschooling, and helping with homework. I have experience working with all age groups. I'm also more than comfortable supervising larger groups of kids or chaperoning gatherings. I'm available for last-minute bookings and have highly flexible rates.
