A little bit about me

My name is Jasmine. I went to De Anza college and studied child development courses. I worked in YWCA Cupertino for 3 years. I worked at Headsup! Child development center for 2 years and 4 months. I also taught infants, toddlers, preschool and bilingual. I worked in Appleseed Montessori School for 9 years at ages 18 months to 3 years old. I am a teacher at Sunnyvale Kindercare since September 2021 to September 2, 2021 at ages 1 to 2 years old.

I love to teach children because each child is very unique. I also like to teach children new things and learn different challenges during the school year. Children love to learn, grow, and being in a safe environment.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Iris, and I'm currently in my second year at UCSC. I'm originally from Mount Shasta, CA, but I'm here in Santa Cruz for school, and I'm hoping to establish connections so that I could live here permanently. Growing up as the oldest in a big family, I have always been involved in childcare to a certain degree, and I've also spent years providing my services for others! I would love to incorporate childcare into my future career, as it has always been something I've immensely enjoyed. Overall, caring for children has always been a passion of mine, and it remains to this day something I can't wait to pursue further.

A little bit about me

Greetings,
My name is Katelyn Tripp, and I am a 28 year old woman born and raised in Santa Cruz. In July of 2018 I graduated with a Masters in Education and a multiple subject teaching credential from UCSC. I have taken this past year to substitute teach at Gault elementary school to continue to grow and build my professional portfolio. I have worked with children ranging between 5 and 10 during this time. Prior to that, I received my BA at San Jose State in Child and Adolescent Development. While attending San Jose State I was a full time caregiver for a 10 month boy, and remained his caregiver until he was 2.5 years old and started preschool. Before that I received my AA degree from Cabrillo College in Early Childhood Education. I have spent over 7 years working with preschool, toddler and infant children. I am happy to provide you with contact information and references from both my caregiving job as well as my professional jobs.
Thank you!
Regards,
Katelyn Tripp

A little bit about me

I have over ten years of childcare experience with three years in an outdoor education setting. My diverse background nannying to early childhood education has helped me develop the tools to create a nurturing, safe, and enriching environment for children. I believe in meeting each child where they are at, both emotionally and cognitively, and am able to adapt my approach to each child's unique needs.

I am a strong advocate for outdoor and play based learning environments where children can connect with the world around them through hands-on experiences. This translates between my teaching and nanny practices.
