A little bit about me

Hello my name is Pamela Ortega (Pam). Mother of 4. My family and I moved to Yuma from Oregon in 2025 to help take care for my granddaughters now 5 and 7.
I also have 9 month old twin girls whom I get to take care of occasionally.
I was a dental assistant for 28 years and feel like being a caregiver and grandma to families that need help while making a livable income can be the perfect chapter in my life. I love kids. Mine are grown so I have the time and flexibility. The knowledge, patience, reliability, love and trust mom's and dads need to feel their babies are safe. I'm patient and have learned much throughout my own experiences watching my kids at all ages.
I have a background clearance card.

A little bit about me

My name is Alexandra, and I truly love caring for children. I bring over 15 years of hands-on childcare experience, beginning in an in-home daycare setting and continuing as a private nanny for wonderful families. I have cared for children ranging from newborns to teenagers, and I hold a degree focused on early childhood development, giving me both real-world experience and a strong educational foundation.



I am CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, and committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can thrive. I enjoy outdoor play, arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, and supporting age-appropriate routines that help children feel secure and confident.



My goal is to provide families with reliable, long-term care while creating meaningful, memorable experiences for the children I work with. I look forward to connecting with a family who values consistency, communication, and heartfelt care.
