About Brenda

I am an experienced and enthusiastic person who loves taking care of kids of any age. I have been doing full-time babysitting for 8 years, I have a certificate in first AID training and CPR, and I am also fully vaccinated against COVID and Flu shot. Currently, a part time student at Merritt College pursuing an AA degree in Child Development, I have earned a certificate of proficiency in Child Care provider. I enjoy reading books in Spanish and English, and sing-along nursery rhyme music with basic sign language. I am fluent in Spanish and happy to teach your child. Looking for a part time position starting in August until December.

We were incredibly lucky to have found Brenda. She brought warmth, patience, and genuine care into our home, making both us and our kids feel safe and supported. She truly connected with them, loved them and helped them grow. Our daughter started speaking so much more with Brenda working with her. Learned colors, letters etc. It was very clear Brenda would take the time to work with her and choose educational activities to help her grow. Whether through creative play, learning activities, or simply offering comfort when needed, she always knew how to meet them where they were. Her presence was nurturing, steady, and full of love. We also appreciated her reliability, clear communication, and the respect she showed for our home and routines. She handled everything gracefully, even in challenging moments. She is patient, and I always appreciated that she would find fun activities outside of the house to take the kids to (I work from home). Parting ways was incredibly difficult, (it was time for our daughter to go to school) but we’re so grateful for her time with us. Brenda is part of our family now and we still see her from time to time for dinner, or she helps us for a date night. Any family would be very lucky to have her.
