A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Eva, and I’m currently a student at Novato High School. I really enjoy working with kids and have been volunteering as a tutor and caregiver at Gilead House, where I help children with their schoolwork and provide emotional support in a caring environment. I’m patient, responsible, and love creating a positive space for kids to feel safe and confident. Outside of volunteering, I’m also involved in leadership roles at school, which has helped me develop strong communication and problem-solving skills. I’m excited about the opportunity to support your family and be a reliable babysitter!

A little bit about me

I have been doing child care for at least 25 years including having been a preschool teacher for 15 years. I am also a licensed doula and a prayer chaplain at my church.
I love and have an affinity for children. I believe my keen sensitivity for being with and understanding children stems from my having been an adopted child with my early experience residing in an orphanage. I would very much like to be considered and am happy to share several very positive references. Thank you. Sincerely, Gloria
