I’ll be moving to Thornton in March for a Traveling Respiratory Therapy job. Children are my whole world. I love being a role model and helping shape young learning minds. I have 2 little nieces and a nephew that I left back in Kansas that I am missing more than anything. I am willing to help care for a child with medical needs. I am BLS/CPR certified (plus more). I worked with children at the hospital I used to work at in Kansas.

A little bit about me
My employment history includes years of working in healthcare, childcare and elder care. I have extensive childcare experience with males and females from newborn to 13 years old including multiples. I have even supervised large groups of children while their parents attended adult functions.
Recently I had charge of an 6 1/2 year old girl. For 1 1/2 years I would pick up Dylan from school on Thursday afternoon and keep her in my home until I would drop her off at school on Friday morning. We enjoyed singing along with the radio, going to the park/playground, swimming, arts & crafts, playing board games and reading out loud to each other.
I cared for Luke in my home PT from 3 months old until he turned 3 y/o the end of March and his parents put him in daycare FT. I still babysit for Dylan and Luke on occasion.
I am passionate about animals and I have been volunteering with dog rescues since 2014.
I look forward to learning more about your family and how I can help. [phone number hidden]

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Xavier Garza. I have a background in hospitality, leadership, and operations, where I've spent the last several years working in fast-paced environments that required patience, responsibility, and strong communication. My current role as a Sous Chef has strengthened my ability to stay organized, solve problems quickly, and remain calm under pressure while leading a team.
I genuinely enjoy helping others and being someone people can depend on. I understand how important it is for parents to know their children are safe, supported, and cared for. I'm reliable, attentive, and believe in creating a positive, structured environment where children can learn, have fun, and feel comfortable.
While my professional experience hasn't been in childcare, I'm a quick learner, take responsibility seriously, and am committed to earning a family's trust through consistency, patience, and open communication. I'm looking for an opportunity where I can make a positive impact.
