Hareer M.
- 13 years paid experience
- 8 miles
My name is Hareer Mujaddidi! I have been a babysitter since I was about the age of 13, starting off with my neighbors children, a family of 7 kids, including newborn twins, and the oldest child was 9 years of age! I have always been great with children, I enjoy spending time with them, teaching them, allowing them to grow and learn. I have babysit for plenty of families, very diverse, and very different families. Some families were gluten free, ate only organic, worked from home, raised their children a certain way, religious, not religious, no electronics, or free-spirited and laid back, etc. I not only am an adult with the children, but I also play and act sort of their age or interact with them like they are adults, there has always been a mutual respect with the children I have babysat and in many cases the parents are quite shocked at how well they are with me. I am hoping to pursue a career in child psychology or behavior analysis! I have worked in day care centers and child care volunteer programs. My life has pretty much been revolves around children, toddlers, and infants and I wouldn’t want it to be any different!

Katherina O.
- 10 years paid experience

Hello, my name is Katherina Oleynichenko. I finished Sacramento City College studying Early Childhood Education and finished Sacramento State University this past semester Spring 2025 in Child Development with a minor in Deaf studies. In my professional experience, I have babysat toddlers through kindergarten-aged children at my church on Thursday night every other week for the past two years. My goal was to make sure all the children would play nice, eat and enjoy their snacks, and leave the center with a smile on their faces. At my church, I also participated as a lead counselor and supervisor of children in a program called Vacation Bible School which occurs every summer as a day camp for children ages 4-10. Through Vacation Bible school, I not only supervised children but made sure all were happy, entertained, and fed, as we also had snacks throughout the day and you know what happens when a child does not eat, they are cranky. Another professional experience that I am currently a member of is Awana Clubs, which is ages from 4-6 and 7-12. I volunteer as the main coordinator and also a crew leader which oversees the children and their behavior. I practice Bible verses with them, participate in sports activities, and share lots of hugs. I also have experience with infants and pre-toddlers. I was the main babysitter for 4 years while my own little brother was growing up and I have learned what it means to have a crucial bedtime/daytime schedule for infants, from nap time to food breaks and how much attention infants and little babies need and crying is their main source of disagreement but should not be their main source of communication and smiling is better. Some skills that I have gained over the years are good time management and patience with children. Children want your undivided attention and unconditional affection and as an adult or babysitter, my goal is to provide that environment while also supporting their growth into future young adults. One of my greatest achievements and growth moments as a student in early childhood development and personal development is being able to think of entertaining activities fast and fun games to play if the child begins to get bored. Being creative is an amazing source of outlet to let children be who they are through painting, coloring, or doing various crafts. I also speak Russian and am proficient in American Sign Language. Looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful family. Thank you!

Dulce L.

Hi my name is Dulce but I go by Abi, I have always been drawn to working with children, right out of high school I worked at a preschool, not knowing it was caring after special needs children, although it was a surprise and a learning experience I fell in love with it which then led me to working as a Paraprofessional at a school District for the next 4 yrs. I moved over to Sacramento 9 yrs ago and worked as an ABA for children on the spectrum after that I was fortunate to have found my family I currently nanny for, I have been with them for the past 6 yrs and care after their 3 boys( under 7). Throughout the years I have learned the importance of patience, communication, among others. I’ve been so fortunate to have such a rewarding job and truly would not change it for anything. I have Monday and Wednesdays available as well as the occasional weekends, I look forwards twords meeting your kiddos:)

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. There’s something so special about being part of a child’s growth — whether that’s helping with homework, encouraging creativity, or simply being someone they can laugh and feel safe with. I have experience caring for children of various ages and am comfortable managing routines, preparing meals, helping with schoolwork, organizing engaging activities, and maintaining bedtime schedules. I understand how important consistency and patience are, and I always strive to support the parenting style and expectations of each family I work with. I bring strong communication skills, reliability, and a calm, attentive presence. Safety is always my top priority, and I’m organized, dependable, and able to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. My goal is to make both children and parents feel confident, supported, and at ease. I would love the opportunity to be someone your family can trust and rely on!
