Hi there!! Working with kids is my passion! Right now I am currently going to school to hopefully become a child psychologist. I have worked with 100’s of children and I still can’t pick a favorite age. I love the silliness of exploring a new world with a preschooler, but I also love the bonds you build once they get older! I come from a classroom setting so I’m used to caring for multiple kiddos at once, but I’m really looking forward for the chance to connect more one on one! I got my start in child care four years ago, working at the City of Eugene summer camps, going into my senior year of high school. I worked four summers (2022-2025) in the middle school outdoor exploration camp and filled in for the elementary camps when needed. I spent a few school years (2022-2024) working their elementary afterschool care program as well! I did lots of planning activities for all of these programs, and the final summer of the middle school camp I was the lead for; meaning I planned most of that camp. In 2023 I graduated high school and moved out. I continued working part time in the afterschool program, at the same time learning what it’s like to be an adult. At the end of 2024 I started a full time job at the Head Start of Lane County as a preschool teacher. I worked there till the end of the 25/26 school year. I was a teacher who carried a “caseload”, so I was assigned a few families in my classroom to help specifically assist with things like housing needs, getting extra food, transportation, ect. I love working with kids and families, and the only reason I left this job is because I know for sure now that I want to go to school to work with children. A full time job is not feasible while going to school, but I don’t want to stop working with kids! A family that can work around a college schedule would be perfect. I have a 16hr part time job right now, but my hours are very flexible. If it felt right I would consider not working that job to spend more time babysitting. Through these jobs I have obtained my CPR certification, first aide certification, food handlers card, and am approved by the CBR or central background registry; which you need this to work in any licensed child care facility in Oregon. Thank you for your consideration! ☀️

I have experience working in childcare and as a student teacher while earning my Master’s in Teaching. I’ve cared for children as young as 4 months old up to 12 years old, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of ages and developmental stages. I’ve also worked in memory care, which gave me experience caring for individuals who are sick or need extra patience and support. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable. I have strong skills in child development, behavior management, and creating fun, engaging activities. My background in education and caregiving helps me provide safe, attentive, and nurturing care for every child I work with.

I am an Environmental Artist and Mentor, and I love working with youth. I enjoy outdoor adventures, creating art, making meals, and engaging in reading, dance and play. I have over a decade of experience in childcare, and child education.

Hello and happy almost end of summer, I am a part time writing teacher at LCC. I live on Willamette which I think is close to where you are. The profile says less than one mile away.

Basically, the whole month of September, I am off teaching. Fall term starts October 1st. I will be teaching 3 days each week. I am always off on Tuesday & Thursday. If you would like to meet and discuss the job, I would be happy to meet you any afternoon. My name is spelled funny, but it sounds like "holly." Hope to hear from you, H
