Find experienced child care providers in Eureka, CA

I first started babysitting when I was in my young teens, becoming the go-to person for most of the families within my neighborhood. I went on to nanny for a few different lovely families, taught and ran Red Cross Certified swimming programs for infants and kids of all ages and skills, and spent some of my favorite summers working at an overnight camp on the East Coast. Nowadays, I find myself loving being in classrooms as a substitute teacher. I sit for families when they are looking for some relief, as my schedule allows. Looking forward to meeting you :)

Hi families! I’m currently completing my first year of nursing school, where I recently finished my pediatric hospital rotation, an experience that strengthened my passion for caring for children and deepened my understanding of safety, development, and age-appropriate support. I also hold Pediatric Life Support certification, along with CPR, First Aid, and additional emergency-care training, giving families confidence that their little ones are always in safe hands. I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a caring, calm, and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable to learn and explore. Seeing children reach milestones, build confidence, and discover new interests is incredibly rewarding, and I aim to support each child with patience, enthusiasm, and genuine connection. My experience includes caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age children through both family and community recommendations. I’ve been trusted by family friends with newborn care, supported several friends’ children as their regular sitter, and spent years teaching at the YMCA as a swim instructor. I’ve also completed specialized training for infant water safety, giving me a unique skill set for families who value comfort and confidence around the water.

I have cared for young children with and without disabilities. I am a very service oriented individual. I love life and meeting people's needs. I love to interact with children on their level.

Hello families! My name is Zoë Alexandrou, age 23 and I recently moved to Arcata, CA. I’m currently looking to connect with families in need of childcare, nanny support, or assistance in a nature-based daycare setting. I’ve spent much of my life working with children, including over a year at a nature daycare school caring for children ages 1–5. Alongside that, I’ve done individual nanny work and partially raise my 10-year-old sister, which has given me a deep understanding of both early childhood care and family dynamics. I’m passionate about helping children explore and learn through nature, creativity, and connection. I value teaching kids important life skills like conflict resolution, mindfulness, and cooperation while encouraging free thinking, curiosity, and self-expression through art, dance, and song. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and imaginative environment where each child can grow confidently and authentically. Please reach out if you feel I can support your family home, daycare or nature school! 408-318-1116 Zoealexandrou1738@yahoo.com Thank you 🙂
