A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Theresa and I am 51 years old. My husband of 25 years and myself raised our four adult kids , who now have their own family's that they are raising and in total they gave us twelve unique , special grandkids.
I met and started helping at the time a family of three and stayed with them until April 2024 . Helping with all three of their kids from birth so the parents could work and not have to worry about the Littles.
I DOORDASH for extra money and Thursday through Sunday are my busy days. Monday through Wednesday I've got an open time availability. Which is all flexible. I would prefer to meet the right family and slowly get to know prior to any long term commitment and if all goes well with a full schedule I'd rather not have to do DOORDASH.
I need one paid days to shadow parent , get to know family , learn routine, and take notes myself so their is no mistakes as to what is
expected where things goes and how it works.
Preferable security cameras set up

"Yvette was caring for my 5 month old at the time until she was about one year and a half. Yvette was very wonderful at caring for her and making sure she was soothed and just a happy baby! She taught my daughter how to do sign language as well as speak Spanish. My daughter started talking at the age of one. Yvette was such a huge help for me and my family."

A little bit about me
Hello,
My name is California, but you can call me Cali. I am a mother of a brilliant 9 year old boy. I spend most of my time homeschooling him, working part-time, gardening, and hiking.
I plan to go back to college eventually to finish getting my teaching degree (science) and minor in child development. I help run a local "Wild and Free" co-op in the Merced area, where children can learn everyday life skills in a natural setting.
I know, as a parent myself, how hard it can be to trust someone with your child and how hard it can be to find someone reliable. I would like to provide that security for parents when they leave their children in my care.
Thank you for your time!
