Chris Bajarias, Associate Director of Parent Services

A native to the Bay Area, Chris received his BS in Health Education from San Francisco State University and began his career in healthcare technology. After a year of public service in an Americorps program, Chris developed a deep passion for working with low-income families and children, helping them grow and thrive. He worked at BANANAS child care resource and referral agency in Oakland for six years, where he managed the child care eligibility list for Alameda County and was a member of the ECE Planning Council.

 

Chris joined Children’s Council in 2012 where he managed child care payments and was a Program Manager, providing leadership and coaching to staff working directly with families in our Subsidy programs. As the Associate Director of Parent Services, he oversees the Child Care Resource and Referral teams and is committed to helping all families, regardless of income, find child care that meets their needs. When not traveling, Chris enjoys seeing live music of any genre, cooking for his friends, and planning for the next adventure with his partner and dog.
