Sittercity helps Patterson families find the best nannies

Hello! My name is Savana and I am a childcare professional. I have Associates Degree in Early Childhood Education and Development. I have certifications for First AID, CPR, and AED as well as Childhood Nutrition certificate. I have been working professionally in the child care field for 8 years now. I am currently working at a preschool but I am looking for some more hours and experience for my credentials. I first started working at the Child's Campus at San Francisco State University and after that I ended up opening my own family daycare called Lyons' Littles. In the height of the pandemic I had to close down my daycare and went into in home childcare in an effort to protect my household. Childcare has been a theme in my life for as long as I remember and nothing is more fulfilling to me than shaping young minds and providing assistance to parents. When I first started working with children I knew that this would be my career and I wouldn't have that any other way. I am currently looking for a flexible work week and I am willing to adjust to your needs (Updated 3/12/2025),morning or evening. I do provide weekend care as well. Thank you so much for considering me for your family!

Hi! My name is Lesly and I gained my experience through a company that provides services for children on the autism spectrum. Besides being able to obtain these skills, making those connections with the kids was the most meaningful take away. I love spending time with the little ones and learning about their favorite things to do. I am also a huge pet lover. (Especially cats).
