A little bit about me
Hi! I am a senior in college studying psychology. I was previously working as a registered behavior technician, where I gained experience with individuals with ASD. Before that I worked as a part time mural artist as well as a volunteer at several local elementary schools. Fun fact about me is that I play the clarinet, and I’m currently learning the guitar! I’m a very active person. I love to keep the kiddos I work with moving and grooving. I could see myself being a great fit for a group of homeschool kiddos, individuals with ASD or just an active family looking for an extra set of hands. Really, I’d like to think I can do it all ;)

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Selena, I have a bachelors degree in anthropology and I'm currently working as an anthropologist/archaeologist after I graduated, but I have had recent longing to start getting back into childcare. I was a nanny in college for a family that had two boys. When I started with them in 2019, the eldest was 3 and the younger wasn't born yet but I built a strong relationship with the family. I'm a hard worker and can sometimes be a no-nonsense type of person depending on the situation. I also love doing crafts, making music, dancing, reading any activity I can think of to engage with kids minds and keep them active so there is less time spent on electronics.

A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Domonique but most people just call me Moki! I have over 11 years of experience starting at the age of 10. I would watch employees children at my parents business while they were working, anywhere from 4 months to 9 years old over the years. I've had several families from my church and other connections that I have babysat for and built strong and long-lasting relationships with all of the families. I was a nanny and homemaker for a family when I was 19, caring for their special needs child 5 days a week. I also worked a short-term live-in nanny job for two children during the pandemic. As well as two other nanny positions over the last two years for varying ages. I'm extremely hardworking and personable, as meeting your children where they are at is the most important! I hope to nurture your children and family values as well as provide a safe warmhearted environment!

A little bit about me
I’m a student, exploring life in somewhat of a nomadic manner looking to spend the winter (potentially longer) in this beautiful area. My experience with childcare started when my younger sister was born. She is 8 years younger than me, and as we grew up I developed a love for taking care of others.
With this, roughly 5 years ago I began working closely with a local family, providing care for their two children. I navigated scheduling and transportation while creating a productive and comfortable environment for their kiddos. As I developed these skills, my relationship with this family grew closer, and I found myself branching out to make new connections with other local families, where I was introduced to a variety of ages, health conditions, and personalities.
My home-base is in Northern California, and i’m looking to escape the cold this winter and have a new life experience!
