Zoe W., Child Care in Placentia, CA 92870 with 15 years of paid experience

Hello! I am fully vaccinated, have reliable transportation for myself and have well over a decade of childcare experience. I’m looking for work occasionally on semi weekly or monthly basis for a family of 1-3 children (for a rate of $22-35/hr). Growing up in a large family has helped me develop a skill-set that makes me an ideal babysitter candidate. I am the eldest of 7 children and helped care for my younger siblings beginning at 11 years-old. My relevant experience caring for infants began with the birth of my youngest sister when I was thirteen. Based off of my volunteer work with elementary school children in the classroom, and my recent 6+ years of experience babysitting children ranging from ages 6-month to 11, I can confidently look after and facilitate activities for children, do basic housekeeping/cooking/mealprep tasks as needed, and assist with homework or other formative learning experiences. I have assisted kids through potty-training, and bedtime routines. Since 2021, I have been babysitting on a semi weekly / as-needed basis for families in Orange County. Activities I value: reading/storytelling, listening to music, dance/movement, creating art (ex. drawing, painting, clay sculpting, etc), building/creating with objects (ex. building track routes, block structures, lego sets, playdoh, kinetic sand, etc), learning and playing board games (or other well-known games), and imaginary play. As an enthusiastic caretaker, I have proven that I am willing to be present to the task at hand. Overall, I am an articulate and responsible individual who will be a respectful guest in any family home and will value the opportunity to form a bond with your child(ren)!

Please message me for any additional details or questions you may have. Look forward to hearing from you. Kristi

Elizabeth S., Child Care in Placentia, CA 92870 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Elizabeth. I am currently pursuing a degree in Communications and will be transferring to study International Business. I recently left my full-time employment to return to school. I have experience working with children aged 3 to 27 years. Previously, I supported adolescents and adults with special needs, including physical, developmental, behavioral/emotional, and sensory-impaired challenges at a private school in Northern California and independently. Most recently, I was employed at a non-profit organization, where I worked with youth who are survivors of human trafficking. I am in the process of transitioning my career and have recently relocated to Southern California. My recent role at the non-profit was both mentally and physically exhausting. While I truly enjoy being creative, expressive, and helpful, I am looking for a part-time job that allows me to continue making a positive impact while teaching valuable life lessons in a natural and everyday context. Hit me up for an interview, and see if I am a good fit for you and your family. Look forward to meeting you and answering any questions you have.

Leannah M., Child Care in Placentia, CA 92870 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello ! My name is Leannah and I'm so excited to meet you! I graduated from UC Davis in 2022 and grew up in the Bay Area. My journey as a babysitter began from a young age, having to watch over my younger siblings while my parent was away at work. I have since utilized that experience to help out many families and have had awesome experiences. I find that children have always connected to my personality and my exciting spirit. Aside from babysitting, I have done all sorts of jobs from cashiering to volunteering at pet shelters to even providing care for the elderly. However because I was raised to be super family-oriented, I’ve always loved being a babysitter;it truly is the most rewarding and fulfilling job out there. Children are a delightful gift: they bring so much joy to my heart and make every day so much better. Playing outside, playing games and encouraging children to use their imagination is something that I am passionate about. The relationship that you’re able to build with a family is something you can’t really find in the work world.
