Meet college nannies and sitters from University of California Davis

Hi! I’m a current master’s student at Boston University with several years of experience working with children. I’ve babysat for families and also worked with younger kids as a preschool assistant (ages 3–5) and as a summer camp counselor at Steve & Kate’s with children ages 4–12. I love engaging kids through crafts, sports, and creative games, and I make sure they’re having fun in a safe environment. I’m also CPR, First Aid, and lifeguard certified, and comfortable around both dogs and cats.

Hi there! I’m a reliable and nurturing caregiver with over 10 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’m patient, organized, and truly enjoy helping others feel comfortable and cared for. Families describe me as dependable, warm, and detail-oriented—I always go above and beyond to make sure everyone’s needs are met. Whether it’s keeping your pets happy, supporting an active household, or assisting an elderly loved one, I treat every client like family.

Hello, my name is Daniela. I am an experienced childcare provider. I work full time as a literacy teacher and as a 3rd grade afterschool teacher at a bilingual elementary school in SF. I have worked as an English teacher in Spain for the last two years, with students from Pre-K to high school. I enjoy working with all ages including middle schoolers. I love to craft, crochet, play sports, and go to the park when the weather permits. I teach chess, dance, and drama at my school so I enjoy fun table games and movement based activities.

I work with students who are on the autism spectrum as well as students who have ADHD and work to accommodate all learning environments and help children build their behavioral skills in a kind way.

I also have experience coaching 6 year old basketball I am also comfortable watching and helping the elderly with basic tasks such as cooking, cleaning around the house and also just providing company. I can keep them quite entertained with my stories. I used to work at the local animal shelter and prior to that was a successful dog walker so I am very comfortable with all animals. I’m very energetic and nurturing so I do really well entertaining my 3 year old perfect nephew when I babysit him weekly.

Hi families, I’m Shyann! I’m a graduate from UC Davis with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, and having now completed my studies, am ready to wade into this next chapter of my life. My academic journey deepened my understanding of how children learn and develop, which I find incredibly rewarding to be a part of. I’m grateful to have gotten the opportunity to apply my knowledge and extend my experience with and for some great families. I come from a large immigrant family with my grandparents alone having over 5 children (my mom’s siblings), so you can just imagine the number of children born each generation since! Me being “older” meant I was the go-to babysitter for my siblings, cousins, nephews, etc., which made transitioning to paid childcare a natural step once I could legally work. Now with over six years of professional experience under my belt, I can say that I’ve really had the pleasure of creating strong bonds with a number of wonderful, diverse families. I have wide-ranging experience caring for children ages 0-12 and am CPR & First Aid certified. I am also up to date on my flu and COVID vaccinations and take precautions in public. I have experience caring for children with special needs regarding the autism spectrum, ADHD, and other (physical) developmental delays. Still, I will always be eager, and motivated, to learn to care for the special needs of any children I do not have experience. I absolutely adore children (and pets!) and am glad to help where I can :)

I am an empathetic, responsible, organized, and driven female-identifying individual who has a long history of caring for pets and children of all ages. I took my first babysitting and CPR certification class in middle school and have been helping families care for their children and pets ever since. I have worked with children of all ages, ranging from 0 years old to 14 years old for both short and longer periods of time. Additionally, I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, and chickens, and have house sat for several different families.

Pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Quantitative Psychology at UC Davis. I come from a family of four but have experience sitting for my baby cousins, dogs and keeping the kids entertained. I love caregiving because of the ability to be there for kids to have fun and also make sure they are doing so in a kind and respectful manner. Something about me is I am a nature lover and an athlete! I have been running track for about 6 years now competitively and I love being a part of a team community and making friends though my love for the sport.
