Meg

I love being around children and watching them explore the world around them. Coming from a teaching background, I set up a safe environment where a child can be happy while learning something new. Since I was little I have shown an interest in children and started babysitting at age 12 and then taught swimming lessons every summer when I turned 16. When I went for my undergrad I majored in Special Education, Elementary Education and took many child development classes. With that background I have been teaching Special Education at the elementary level for 9 years now. In 2007 I graduated from UH with a Masters in Education. I also enjoy a variety of sports such as running, sailing, hiking, surfing, and some yoga. I always encourage children to have a healthy lifestyle and get outside and get physically active in their everyday life because I feel that it is important in a child's physical and emotional development. As a babysitter and a teacher I feel that the communication and expectations between the parents and the babysitter are open. I am a sitter that can be trusted to follow through with the parents'rules and schedule of events.

Danielle

Aloha! My name is Danielle! I reside on Oahu and attend Western Governor’s University, an online college.

I am a high energy person who is passionate about living life to the fullest and positively affecting everyone I interact with, children especially! I am from a small community and know how important it is to be a positive, influential role model to children. I believe that children are our future and how we treat them and what we teach them about life and the importance of education directly affects their quality of life and their ability to become positive, effective leaders. My child care philosophy is: all children deserve to receive attention, love, and care. I am happy to say that there isnt anything I love more than to provide children with it! I love children of all ages. I enjoy fostering a safe environment in which children feel comfortable to learn, have fun, and grow. I am ecstatic to be able to interact with children as a part of my job! When I go to work providing professional child care, I look forward to making a positive impact on the children and sharing their experiences as they learn and grow!

Jill

Hello! My name is Jill and I'm 28 years old. Aside from my ample experience with Aloha Sitters & Keiki Sitters, I have consistently worked with young children for most of my life. Since I was in junior high school I have continuously engaged in volunteer work in early start programs (children ages birth to three), pre-school and elementary school classes primarily with severely disabled children. In college, while I was working on my BA in Psychology (I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Hawaii Pacific University in 2004), I worked as a summer school teacher also with disabled children. Additionally, as the youngest in my family, I have ample experience caring for my nieces & nephews who currently range in age from 2 to 12 years old.

Aloha, my name is Kathy. I am 24 years old and am currently working towards my bachelors in Accounting, although I’m seriously considering changing my major to Early Childhood Development. I have a lot of fun, creative energy and will keep your children safe while entertained. With 9 years experience, I love children of all ages. Infants are super cute and I enjoy cuddling them. Toddlers love to laugh, dance, sing, play and so do I! So we get along great. Older children like to explore by building sand castles, doing crafts, blowing bubbles and popping them and balloon twisting. All of which I enjoy as well! Whatever the age of your child, I assure you, in my care they will have a great time

I raised my two children without a T.V. so while I'm caring for your child your T.V. is "broken"! I love it when I find out in advance the age and gender of the children I'll be watching so I can bring fun books, card games or whatever is appropriate for them. Looking forward to hearing from you so you can enjoy your time away from your children with not a worry in the world about them being lovingly cared for.

Christina Hoe

Aloha, my name is Tesla Teitge, and I am 23 years old. I have been a babysitter/nanny since the age of about 12. Four friends and myself, created a Babysitters Club, where we babysat for local families (in Sun Valley, Idaho) and would hold fun kids camps during the summers. Our starting babysitting rate was $1/hr and I think climbed to $5/hr with time (and then sometimes split between two sitters, what a deal!). Since then, I have gained more experience and unfortunately do not offer this very discounted rate. Ever since the rise and fall of our Babysitters Club I have continued to babysit and still love it just the same. I have worked for various babysitting agencies, Kauai, Sun Valley, and here on Oahu. In addition to the agency work, I have always worked with local families who I babysit or nanny for on the side. I am currently attending UH Manoa Nursing Program and am in my final stretch to becoming an RN. I am CPR/First Aide certified and have recently completed my student nurse clinical rotations on the Pediatric and Labor and Delivery floors. I also have 2 years of patient care experience on other units. I am very excited to continue my life's passion of care.

Parent Testimonial

I would just like to take this opportunity to say how happy we were with Malama. It takes talent to keep 3 kids under six safe and happy! We organized for her to take the kids to the hotel restaurant for dinner every night and for an ice cream after, and they loved it. She also thought to bring everything to make leis with them one night which they loved and to bring books and bubbles on other nights. Such a calm and lovely person. Our kids were so exhausted from endless hours at the pool that they were asleep quite early ...and she did a great job at winding them down after a fun activity. We were very touched when she said that our kids were a joy and that she enjoyed minding them. If there is a more formal way we can give a positive review - please let me know. We would not hesitate at all to recommend to friends and will definitely look to rebook on our return. Kind regards Kathleen & Bill

I also have my own snorkel gear and go all the time. My energy level is super high I played soccer in high school and enjoy being outdoors. One way I describe myself is loving and also respectful of children’s need for independence.

Priscilla McClellan

Aloha nou! I am Priscilla, a grandmother of 4 girls. When I go out to babysit, I introduce myself as Tutu, which is grandparent in Hawaiian. I have raised 6 children of my own, the last two being twin boy and girl so I''m no beginner in the child care business. In 2003, God sent me to Indiana to help a childhood friend as a nanny. They had just adopted a deaf and blind 4 year old from Thailand and desperately needed help. Trusting no one with the child, she asked for my help. He is now 12, speaks and hears with the aid of a hearing device. In 2004, my son received orders for Iraq, and I came home to Hawaii. I transported my then 4 and 5 year old (now 11 and 12) granddaughters from school, watched them until their mother came home. Still doing it! I joined one of the most prestigious hula halaus and have just started teaching seniors the art of hula at a senior center. I was also hired by the Kahala Hotel and Resort to teach hula, lei making and ukulele. I''m very capable of watching babies as well as older children. I believe if you love children, they respond in like. I care for and treat them as my own.
