Abigail O., Babysitter in Bakersfield, CA 93312 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Abigail Ortega. I am currently majoring in Psychology and minoring in Public Health here at UC Davis. I am aspiring to become a Health Psychologist. In terms of my babysitting experience, I grew up as the 4th eldest in a family of 11 children, so I grew up caring for my siblings. I spent a year and a half working for Child Care Careers in which I worked in preschools, daycares, and after school care as a substitute teacher. That being so, I am experienced in all age groups as well as caring for multiple children at a time. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to meeting you all!

Tiffany is every family’s dream nanny. So flexible. Most importantly, my baby was so comfortable around her. She watched my baby from 5 months to 1 year and quickly became family. The only reason I’m not working with Tiffany now is because we moved.

Alanna helped save the day with my last minute request for a sitter New Year’s Eve during our dinner party. She responded promptly, made herself available for a phone call same day. Interviewed very well and was open and flexible with our needs that night. She helped us care for my two children and a group of 4 kids along side our nanny. She communicated well, offered to help with anything we needed that night and stayed late. She has sense helped several days even bringing activities for my girls. She had a great attitude and overall kind and great with kids. I will be booking her to fill in for our nanny going forward. We are very fortunate to have found her so last minute.

Brianna G., Babysitter in Bakersfield, CA 93312 with 11 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Bri. I love being a caregiver to children simply because I adore them! I grew up with five siblings so I was always around kids. I'm very motherly and nurturing and always find joy being with children. For the last ten years, I've been professional babysitting for friends and other families. I have experience babysitting all ages - from newborn to young teen. I believe it's important to connect and engage with the children on their level, but also make it fun by doing activities they love. I enjoy going for walks, doing arts and crafts, watching movies, playing toys with them, or whatever else the child has interest in and the parent(s) allow. While I am not fluent in sign language, I know the basic signs that can be taught to a baby/toddler to help ease their frustration of not being able to talk. I've done this with the little girl I currently watch and it has been a tremendous help in knowing what she wants/needs. I am able to provide references upon request! :)

Devyn  F., Babysitter in Bakersfield, CA 93312 with 10 years of paid experience

My name is Devyn, I am 22. I am a college student, I have received my Associates degree in Child development and I am now getting my Bachelors in Child, adolescent, and family studies. I also have my child development associates teacher certificate. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old and I have been a nanny for a year. I’ve watched new born babies up to 12 year olds. I am also comfortable watching multiple children. I can cook and I can help with homework. I also am CPR/first aid certified. I love to read and do fun arts/crafts. I also love cooking and baking. I became a babysitter and nanny because I love children. I’ve always wanted to be a mom ever since I was little and that’s one of the main reasons I love kids. Children are pure and love you for who you are. I believe I’m good with kids because I understand them since I’m going to school to learn about them and I’ve been doing this for so long.

Faith T., Babysitter in Bakersfield, CA 93312 with 3 years of paid experience

Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I enjoy building relationships with children and watching them learn and grow. I like creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care. What experience do you have? I have over three years of babysitting experience, primarily caring for my mom’s foster children of different ages. I also worked as a lifeguard, which gave me additional experience supervising children, ensuring their safety, and responding calmly in emergencies. What skills and training do you have? I am CPR certified (currently in the process of renewing my certification), fingerprinted, and trained to stay alert and safety-focused. My experience has helped me develop strong communication, patience, problem-solving, and multitasking skills. I’m reliable, responsible, and able to keep children engaged through activities while maintaining a safe environment.
