A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Olivia and I would love to help your family and care for your little ones! I started working with children as a floating teacher when I was 18 at a local daycare. There I discovered my love for this kind of work and was amazed by the minds of young children! From there I took courses and earned certificates to move my way up into eventually having my own preschool class! I loved planning lessons and staying involved in that classroom until they moved up to kindergarten. Please reach out if you have any questions!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Shannon. I've had almost 9 years of experience with all types of kids from newborn to teenagers, and from elite to special education. I've cared for many special needs children, having the most experience in autism. I like to take kids on outings, and anything having to do with the outdoors when the weather permits. I moved to Burbank in February to attend school for makeup, and build my skills. I’m a freelancer so I am very flexible with meeting your needs. I am originally from Portland, Or, and love the outdoors! I have loved working with children for asking as I can remember, I have a big family and was always the caretaker. I am a certified in advanced childcare at the American Red Cross, which means I know how to administer CPR/AED and the Heimlich when needed. I'm absolutely on board with meeting up and testing the waters, feel free to message me about any questions or offers, I'll be happy to hear from you, my email is [email hidden]! :)
