Karla  G., Child Care in Fairfax, CA 94930 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Karla, and in 2023, I moved to Kailua-Kona with the intent to work at Alakaii Academy, a preschool. This was my first experience working with children, and I am very grateful to Mrs. Pablo for giving me the opportunity to work there with just my caregiver qualification. During my time at Alakaii Academy, I learned more than I had expected. I gained a better understanding of child development and taught the little ones how to socialize for the first time. I have the patience to listen to them and help them make the best choices, such as understanding the importance of cleaning up after play and potty training. In my toddler classroom, I also worked with children preparing for kindergarten, assisting the teacher in communicating with them and maintaining a quiet environment so they could focus on listening. At that age, the kids were learning to read and write their names, so I learned various techniques and used paperworks to help them start writing, incorporating 20-minute sessions of dancing or yoga. I really enjoyed this job; however, the school was forced to close due to building damage. I am a loving and dedicated bilingual nanny with over 1.5 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers, including time as a preschool assistant teacher. I’m passionate about helping children grow through creativity, gentle guidance, and play-based learning. I'm currently looking for a part-time or full-time position with a kind family who values clear communication and cultural diversity. 📍 Available in San Francisco 💼 References available 📝 CPR/First Aid trained and willing to update. Gracias!

Natalie  V., Child Care in Fairfax, CA 94930 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Natalie and am 25 years old. I'm an experienced babysitter with 10+ years of experience who has a passion for child care with a goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. received my bachelor's of science in nursing this past May at Samuel Merritt University in Oakland and am currently finding occasional babysitting jobs as I study for my state board exam. I wanted to go into nursing because I have always enjoyed helping people. I have always enjoyed working with children, which is why I chose pediatric nursing and why I have always gravitated to childcare jobs. My mom and grandmother owned a daycare for 13 years of my life and I was a big help, so I have experience taking care of newborns all the way to teenagers. I have volunteered during the summer at many camps as a youth counselor. During the pandemic I worked through zoom to provide one on one care with children that needed homework assistance or just virtual playtime. I have worked as an after school instructor at my local elementary school, where I am currently working. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and sport practices, crafts, bedtime routines, and tutoring. I can also clean, tidy up the house and run errands if needed. My main goal is to always make sure children are having fun in an educational way and providing a safe environment for them. I am a big fan of arts and crafts so I always carry crafts around me in case a fun little activity can be done. I also love pets and take care of them as well! I have had many hamsters, cats, dogs, chinchillas, etc...so I am fine with giving them my extra care. I am also bilingual and speak English and Spanish fluently, and wouldn’t mind giving a little Spanish lesson every now and then. I like to her walk my dogs, do puzzles, and watch movies in my spare time. I am fully vaccinated and CPR certified. I look forward to meeting you! 😊😊

Ellen A., Child Care in Fairfax, CA 94930 with 30 years of paid experience

Hello! I am not your typical babysitter. I love children and have dedicated most of my life to them. I am a recently retired elementary teacher/children's librarian with 30 years of experience in the classroom. I have been caring for children since I was a teenager beginning with babysitting and as a camp counselor. In my twenties I was involved in children's and educational theater. My passion for children inspired me to get my teaching degree and I got to pursue a career that brought me much fulfillment and joy. I love reading to children and I am happy to bring books to your home specifically curated for your child as well as my special "Magic Bag" of puppets. In addition, I can act as a tutor to help your child build their reading and writing skills. I am very active and enjoy spending time in nature. I look forward to connecting with you.

Lisa A., Child Care in Fairfax, CA 94930 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a 40-something, fully vaccinated, CPR certified, college graduate (UVM) looking for babysitting work. I'm looking to babysit because I'm amidst a career change and grad school and I need something flexible. A little about my experience: I have babysat and nannied since I was 13 years old. In Burlington, VT I nannied for 4 years for a family with 2 children, a 2-year old girl and a 7-year old boy. After college, I nannied for 2 years for a family in Fairfield, CT (where I'm from) with 2 children, a 3-year old daughter and a 6-year old son. Recently, I have babysat occasionally for a couple children and also have taken care of my 3-year old niece. In addition to those examples, I come from a big family so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages and needs. I'm flexible with duties and schedules, have my own car and am able to help with homework, sports, play dates, cooking, light housekeeping, errands, pets, etc. I've been told I'm good with kids and I certainly do love them. I wasn't able to have children myself so babysitting is the perfect way for me to connect with children and help the community out. Thanks for reading my profile. I look forward to hearing from you!
