I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy spending time with children and helping families. I am patient, gentle, caring, and responsible. I have 5 years of experience working in a preschool and after-school program, and 1 year of babysitting experience with infants and toddlers. Before coming to the U.S., I worked as a doctor in China, so I have a professional medical background and understand children’s health and safety very well.

Hi! My name is Alyssa Shipman, and I’m a college student studying at College of San Mateo. I have over seven years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens—and absolutely love helping kids learn, play, and grow in a safe and positive environment. I also have experience as a swim instructor and a Transitional Kindergarten Teacher Aide, which has strengthened my skills in child supervision, safety, and early learning support. I’m CPR and AED certified, dependable, and great at keeping kids engaged through creative activities, outdoor play, and structured routines. I take pride in being responsible, patient, and fun—someone kids feel comfortable with and parents can trust. Whether you need occasional help or regular care, I’d love to support your family and ensure your children are happy, active, and well cared for!

Alyssa is a gem! She is kind, patient, caring, and reliable. Both of my kids look forward to seeing her, and love spending time with her. I feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care, and highly recommend her as a babysitter.

I have many years of experience babysitting various age groups and I have taught science summer programs to ages 5-18. I also have a daughter, graduated from college. I raised my daughter to be involved in extra curricular activities, e.g., photography, sports, tutoring and play dates. So, I understand the challenges of a work life balance. I believe I can provide a caring, creative, educational environment that helps children thrive and become the best people they can be. I currently hold a BS in Biology and studied Masters in Forensic Science. I work in the field of compliance, and I would like to fund my Compliance exam that’s why I’m seeking additional employment. I will do my best to create a nurturing and engaging environment for your child. My Spanish and Portuguese speaking skills are a little rusty, but I may be able to assist with basic Spanish homework. I provide receipts for childcare reimbursement/ taxes. I prefer that we discuss that in advance to make it easier on tracking. My standard childcare rate is $30 per hour * This includes childcare, entertainment or homework supervision, following basic daily routines, standard meal prep and cleaning any “mess” we make as a result of babysitting. For sitting locations over 8 miles from my home there is a $10 on time travel cost, per session. *Additional services can range for up to $40 per hour. Rates beyond $30 account for additional services and requests, e.g., household chores, tutoring, extensive services required for disabilities and pet care. ** I am respectful of allergy concerns, please be aware that I consume peanut products and I own a dog.** I have served as a “Course Life Assistant” to college students on ecosystem and field study trips in Central America. In this capacity, I was responsible for offering basic first aid and CPR, if needed. Although I have been CPR certified. I have driven kids to school and sports via Zum and Hopskip drive (driving kids apps).

Patricia cares for our 9 month old baby. She is responsible, responsive, and has a natural, calm demeanor that puts everyone at ease. Her communication is exceptional. She proactively checks in with thoughtful questions about how to approach new situations with our baby, which not only gives us peace of mind but also allows us to feel included and articulate my care preferences. She is always receptive to our feedback. We find Patricia to be very respectful of our parenting choices. She fully supports and values our decision to breastfeed, creating an environment where I can feed comfortably when I am present. She maintains a calm and alert presence, which is invaluable. We have observed her incredible patience during feedings, which is so important as our baby explores new food. Patricia keeps our baby engaged with age and energy-appropriate activities that are fun and stimulating. She understands that a baby's schedule can change unpredictably and adapts with grace and flexibility. When I am home, Patricia always allows me to step in and care for our baby, whether it's for snuggles, a feeding, or just play. She seamlessly adjusts to my presence. She consistently cleans up after chores and maintains the tidiness of the play areas. Patricia has been a calming and capable presence in our home.

I've been a mothers helper since the age of 10. I've grown up in Daycares as my mother has always worked with kids, I've had to tag along. I've helped out at two Daycares my self and helped out with both the infants and toddlers. I am currently working with a family of 3 (10,14, and16) and no longer needed as much as before. i am very loving and caring and most importantly very patient. I'll have a very flexible schedule. I am a full time student at Foothill Community College and tend to work my school schedule around my work schedule when possible.

Adriana’s Bio I am a former preschool teacher with 20 years of experience working with children. I have worked as a nanny/babysitter as well. I am a fun, loving person and offer more than the typical babysitter as I focus on supporting the overall development of children I work with. My experience ranges from newborn to middle school age, including children with special needs, as I hold a certificate of specialization in special needs education and have several years of experience working with diverse abilities. I have two children of my own; a 23 year old son and a 27 year old daughter, who graduated from Stanford with a Master’s degree. I am a native Spanish speaker, CPR certified, with perfect driving record, and registered with Trustline as an added level of trustworthiness. No house cleaning/cooking services offered. I don’t take care of sick children.

Adriana provided night care for our second child immediately following our return from the hospital. Throughout her time with us, she is very punctual, caring, and highly attentive to hygiene, wearing a mask while working with our newborn. She was very helpful on days when our baby experienced gassy periods, using effective techniques to ensure she was relieved and comfortable. Adriana is also very flexible and willing to adjust her start and end times to accommodate our needs. Adriana offered a calm and dependable presence that really helped us get a much needed break in the night so we are ready to handle our kids the next day. We highly recommend her!

Sheri did a one-day trial with us to care for our 5-month-old baby. She was very responsible in changing diapers, gently helping him fall asleep, and engaging with him during his awake time. Our baby was very comfortable with her and clearly enjoyed her company. Although our family is currently going through a major transition and we are unfortunately unable to move forward with hiring her, we highly recommend Sheri for any childcare position.

Jeanette was our part-time nanny (20 hrs per week) in Livermore for our twin boys from when they were 6 months old to almost 2 years (2012 - 2013). She is professional, friendly, energetic and wonderful with the boys. She also helped out around the house with some light housework. She truly loves what she does and it comes through every day. Jeanette was really a dream come true because we quickly felt perfectly safe leaving our children and our home in her care, and we were never disappointed. The only reason we can't hire her anymore is because we moved out of the area.

Aggie was wonderful with our kids age 3 and 5. She managed to get them to learn letters in a very playful manner. Our kids loved her! She paid them a lot of attention, and has a great way to not just leave them on the side but interact with them. This is really quite amazing.

Hello my name is Brenda and I am a Latina female. When it comes to being a sitter I love every part of it. Especially having the opportunity to see the personality of the child, and the amazing person they become while providing a safe, fun and caring environment where they feel safe to be themselves. All while helping them have an environment to grow while fulfilling your family’s needs. A little about me: I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am currently learning ASL (American Sign Language) and am studying to major in nursing. I previously have taken care of kids ages 4 months - 10 years old, and I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified.
