Hi my name is Brandie, I'm 37&I'm both a need basis&recurring babysitter for families all throughout Sacramento. A little about me: I have a child development major&working with children is actually my chosen career! With each babysitting job I make it my aim to offer fun hands-on interactive babysitting. Parents I've babysat for will tell you I actually sit down&play with children. I have 4 years of training at Utep University in Texas in the elementary education degree field&have also completed a specialized associate of applied science in child development at Epcc. I would describe myself as a babysitter who's motivated&who truly has a passion for working with children! I've used a variety of activities when babysitting including small house play performances (we design masks or costumes), hands-on science experiments, game nights with prizes, creative arts&crafts including crafts centered on nature, outdoor picnics, paper mache, activities that help with fine Read more motor skills development, baking&no-bake cooking, read a-louds, beading, sculpting projects, music appreciation activities with instruments I bring, dance, creative&imaginative play, activities utilizing the 5 senses including sensory bins of all sorts, sports of all sorts, water play, scavenger hunts, nature walks&exploration. I really like to engage children in the world around them&I like to keep them active! I love constantly searching for&trying new activities to give kids new experiences! I was raised in Anchorage, Alaska&as a child I grew up in Montessori doing hands on crafts, learning outdoors, planting flowers around our school garden, adopting trees, taking field trips to clean up nature trails around Anchorage&taking interest in exploring life&our beautiful earth. I have over 12 years of experience working with children from infancy to adolescence in both care giving&teaching. I've been told by different parents that from the moment they met me my personality, my patience, kindness&nurturing of children I care for truly impressed them&stood out. You can check out my reviews and see I go above and beyond!

Brandie is fantastic! She always brings activities and crafts for my children. She tailors her babysitting time to my kiddo’s ages and interests. She has never cancelled or been late and you can truly tell she cares for children - it isn’t just a job. My children love her. She is definitely a rare find.
