Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a dependable and nurturing sitter with several years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages—from infants to school-aged kids. I’m based in San Jose and have worked with multiple families in both long-term nannying roles and short-term babysitting positions. One of my most rewarding experiences was working as a private nanny, where I provided full-day care for children, including transportation to activities, preparing meals, managing nap schedules, and supporting parents with postnatal needs like basic nursing guidance and infant sleep training. I always aim to create a warm and engaging environment through educational play, age-appropriate activities, and consistent routines. In addition, I worked as a Childcare Associate at Bay Club Courtside Los Gatos, where I supervised children ages 6 months to 13 years. I organized learning games and creative activities, ensured a clean and safe environment, and communicated daily with parents Read more about behavior and progress. I also served as a Swim Instructor at Almaden Valley Athletic Club, where I led group and one-on-one swim lessons. This taught me how to build trust quickly with kids and parents while reinforcing safety and confidence in new situations. I’m CPR and AED certified, fully vaccinated, and always happy to provide documentation. I bring strong communication skills, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. Childcare is something I truly enjoy, and I take pride in being someone parents can rely on and kids feel safe with.
