A little bit about me

Hi, Im Bre! I have a BA in Psychology and love working with kids. I’m currently a part time behavioral therapist for children with autism. I have babysitting experience as well as professional childcare experience through my current job, including nonverbal kiddos. I love creating a fun environment for littles to be in and play and try to minimize screen time if it’s not interactive and learning based material. I have no issues preparing food if needed for the kids or changing them if their clothes get dirty.

A little bit about me

Hello Lovely Families, My name is Robyn, and I am a dedicated childcare provider with over 10 years of experience in the field. My journey began at the age of 16, when I started working with a large childcare organization. That early experience sparked a genuine passion for supporting children’s growth and development. Nine years later, I was honored to step into a leadership role as a Childcare Director within the same organization. This experience allowed me to deepen my understanding of quality care, leadership, and the importance of creating nurturing environments for children and families. Today, I am continuing my journey with a renewed focus on making a meaningful impact. My vision for childcare is around providing enriching activities, encouraging exploration, and creating engaging, everyday moments where children can truly embrace learning. I believe that when children feel supported, curious, and inspired, they develop a lifelong love for learning.

A little bit about me

My name is Messiah, and I have spent the last six years dedicating myself to the growth, well-being, and joy of young children. My when I started working with infants and toddlers as a childcare provider. From the very beginning to connect, communicate, and nurture a child's sense of safety and trust. I made sure every child in my care through hands-on, sensorimotor activities that encouraged curiosity and exploration. In 2020, I expanded my work to include private tutoring, where I had the privilege of supporting children including a pair of twins as they built foundational skills in phonics, writing, and exam preparation. More than academics, I focused on helping each child develop self-confidence. I always remind the children I work with that there is no such thing as failure only lessons. Every mistake is a steppingstone, and every child deserves the grace to learn at their own pace without shame.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Mariah, and caring for children has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life. As the big sister of five, I’ve grown up helping nurture, guide, and support kids of all ages. I have hands-on experience caring for my younger brother who is autistic, which has taught me patience, empathy, and how to meet children where they are with love and understanding. Babies and children tend to gravitate toward me easily, I have a calm, warm energy that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and seen. I genuinely enjoy bonding with kids through play, learning, creativity, and everyday routines, and I take pride in being someone they can trust and feel happy around. Creating a loving, supportive, and fun environment for children isn’t just something I’m good at it’s something I truly care about.

A little bit about me

Hello! I’m Valeria Rojas, an energetic 18-year-old with a deep passion for childcare! I’ve been working with kids since I was 15, starting as a teen volunteer with Long Beach Parks and Recreation. I spent my after-school hours leading crafts, coaching sports, and making sure the kids had a blast.

As I gained more experience, I advanced to a paid staff role, coaching and refereeing kids in sports like soccer, t-ball, and basketball. Summers were even more exciting with full-time leadership, field trips, and lots of adventures!

Now, I’m working part-time at a local school, which gives me the flexibility to babysit during weekday mornings or after 6 PM, as well as on weekends. I’m always excited to bring my enthusiasm and experience to your family.

When I’m not working, I love keeping my space neat, staying active, and enjoying life to the fullest!

I am also willing to get CPR certified if requested.

I can’t wait to meet you and your little ones!
