Hi! My name is Bertha Sanchez, I’m currently a nursing student at PCC with ambitions of becoming a RN Pediatric Nurse. I love kids and want to provide better care for kids of all backgrounds with care and understanding. I’m offering child care and light household services while kids are asleep. I love all animals, personally I have 2 cats and 1dog. I love being a babysitter, I’ve been watching babies and toddlers since I was 15! I enjoy activities with kids like coloring, playing outside, reading and singing. With infants I love to put on music, and talking to them is essential for their development as well as plenty of love and attention. I’m always up for a challenge and to try new things! As of now I’m a pharmacy technician and a CNA(certified nursing assistant) although I’m still furthering my nursing career. -Basic Life Support provider certified through the American Heart Association -Hospital Fire and Life Safety certified through SureFire -CPR certified through SureFire

Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) with over a year of hands-on experience in healthcare. I’ve always had a passion for working with children, which began during high school when I worked at a family daycare in Los Angeles. In college, I continued nurturing that passion at Mount Saint Mary’s Child Development Center, where I served as a teacher’s assistant for two years and often led the class. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to 18 years old—and love creating fun, safe, and engaging activities to keep them learning and entertained. I’m not afraid to get a little messy with crafts or imaginative play, and I take pride in building meaningful bonds with every child I work with. While I’m currently taking a step back from full-time nursing to focus on what brings me joy, my background as a nurse allows me to provide a heightened level of care, attention, and safety when it comes to childcare. I’m fully vaccinated (since May 2021) and remain committed to providing a nurturing, healthy environment for your little ones. Pediatrics is my true calling, and I do plan to return to school in the near future to pursue my RN degree. In the meantime, I’d love the opportunity to support families through babysitting and part-time childcare. I look forward to meeting your family and bringing my heart, experience, and nursing skills into your home!

I have some experience working with babies and 1 year olds up to 3 year olds. I love to play with babies, change them, watch them, and protect them. I have worked at three churches working with babies ages 0-3 and other ages. I can tolerate loud crying, and I can carry them for long periods of time, and sing to them and play with them to keep them calm. I love working with children, and being a support system and guide for them and being an assistance for the parents.

I have about 27 yrs of experience. I just love, love, love, babies and children, and have worked with all ages, from newborns to teenagers! I have 15 units of Child Development. I have worked at a daycare and for LA and Pasadena Unified School Districts and because of this, I consider myself an infant and toddler teacher because I gained a lot of experience as one. I have a lot of fun and exciting age-appropriate learning activities that the children enjoy! I know and teach some baby signs and Spanish to the children that I work with. I also teach phonics and other pre-reading/reading skills along with sight words, digraphs, and blends. I also teach beginners addition and subtraction in a fun way! So the children that I work with are always smarter and ready for preschool and/or kindergarten.

Hello! I’m glad to have the opportunity to present myself! I graduated as an early childhood teacher and also experienced teaching and taking care of children and teenagers of all ages. I appreciate being around kids, exchanging experiences and sharing. It’s always fun! For me, being a childcare provider makes me feel like I’m making a difference in the kid’s life, adding to them by giving them attention, showing them they deserve to be loved, respected and taken care of. People often give me compliments on how patient I am with kids, and I always answer with “that’s because I respect the kids’ time”. They have their own time, and why hurry them when they’ll have a whole adult life to do that? I enjoy every single part of being with kids, taking them places, listening to their stories, cooking with them, eating, chatting, doing crafts, reading stories… I feel privileged to have those gifts and to have the opportunity to be in a small part of children’s stories.

Hello! My name is Lyle and I can't wait to meet you! I have nannied young infants as early as 3 months and have worked as a preschool teacher for ages 2-4 years. My primary form of work is in dance and yoga so I have a big love of movement and the arts! When babysitting I enjoy taking children outdoors to run around, creating indoor crafts, as well as homework help and more. I see myself as more than just a “sitter” but a true lending hand in the upbringing of your children, so please feel free to ask me as many questions as you wish. *I also have experience watching children with T1 and other physical/mental specialties.

I have a background in theater so I love being silly with children and helping to nurture their creative side! I also love being active outdoors and playing sports with the kids if that's what they're interested in. I'm a very open and easy-going person so I tend to connect with kids quickly. I have experience looking after children of all ages and I absolutely love making them laugh and have fun! I also have experience dealing with behavioral problems and I am more than capable of keeping them on a strict schedule if you like. I really enjoy teaching and I would absolutely tutor your kids if they need help with homework or just with classes in general. I'm responsible, caring, dependable, and excited to meet you and your family!
