Hello, I am Sara Castañeda! I am currently a student majoring in elementary education. As an elementary education student, I’ve taken and am currently enrolled in child development courses to continue to expand my knowledge and experience to understand children. I've been working with children for over 6 years. My experience working with children consists of babysitting, nannying, and volunteering at camps and youth groups. Additionally, I also have experience with different age groups such as newborns to middle school. A typical day of babysitting will consist of finding an activity that is developmentally appropriate while also entertaining for the child. Look forward to connecting and figuring out what's best for your child.

Hello! My name is Mikayla M, and I bring over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience along with a strong educational background in early childhood development. I hold an Associate Degree in Child Development and am currently in my final year of earning my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with children of all ages—from infants to elementary schoolers—and in a variety of settings including homes, daycares, preschools, and schools. I’ve served as an infant and toddler teacher, a preschool teacher, and a teacher’s aide in elementary classrooms. I also have extensive experience providing one-on-one support to children, especially those with special needs. My specialization lies in working with children with autism, though I have supported children with a wide range of developmental and learning differences. My approach is nurturing, patient, and tailored to each child’s unique strengths and needs. I’m passionate about fostering a supportive environment where children feel safe, confident, and encouraged to grow. I am CPR and First Aid certified, highly reliable, and committed to open, clear communication with families. Whether you need consistent care, occasional help, or specialized one-on-one support, I’m here to be a positive and dependable presence in your child’s life. I’d love the opportunity to speak with you more about how I can support your family’s needs!

I have experience with kids of different ages, I took care of a girl from when she was a few months old up until she was 7 years old. On occasion I still take care of her, she is now 10. I took an intro to teach class in high school that allowed me to work with kids in different elementary schools. I truly enjoy working with kids and I’m aware that they are all different individuals who require different attention/help.
