About Kelsey

Nurturing a child's potential is my lifelong passion. With 20 years of experience supporting families, I bring a patient, creative, and calm approach to childcare for up to four children. My background includes a graduate degree with coursework in early child development, and I hold current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. I am a certified teacher who works for Oakland Unified teaching 5th grade who loves facilitating growth through educational games, puzzles, and outdoor physical activities. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and prioritize clear, consistent communication through your preferred method. Since I am a skilled swimmer and instructor, I am happy to provide swimming supervision to keep your children safe and active. I also enjoy assisting with meal preparation, crafts, and carpooling to keep your days running smoothly. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my dedication and warmth into your home to help your family thrive.
