For infants I prepared bottles, burped babies, changed diapers, and managed nap time routines for infants ages 2 months to 1 year. And for toddlers I assisted with potty training, mediated sharing disputes, and helped young children with dressing and grooming. For household management and safety I cooked simple, balanced dinners while avoiding cross contamination for children with food allergies. Handled basic in home first aid and ensure the house remained child proof. Led children through arts and crafts, built Lego castles, made blanket forts, baked, build puzzles and played educational games etc. I also work as a paraprofessional working with children has always been my passion and just being able to have the opportunity to do so is really a blessing and I really enjoy doing it’s been 1 year so far with me being a paraprofessional and I hope I get the opportunity to connect with a family I’m really looking forward to supporting on whatever they need and being there for the children or child.

Hello! My name is Patrice and I’m passionate about fostering children’s growth and development. With extensive experience in early childhood education, I’m proud to run a daycare in Vallejo that operates Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and my knowledge of brain development and early education allows me to create engaging, age-appropriate activities that support each child’s individual developmental journey—whether they’re 3 months or 8 years old. In the near future I will begin pursuing a degree in cognitive science to further expand my expertise. I am organized, positive, and have a team player approach with all my families. I prioritize open communication with parents, as I believe collaboration is key to providing the best care and environment for every child. I look forward to making a positive impact on your child’s day and supporting their growth every step of the way!

$30 per hour for 1 child

With three years of dedicated childcare experience and a genuine passion for creating nurturing, active, and imaginative environments for children, I am confident I can provide excellent care and enrichment for your family. For the past three years, I have cared for two children from infancy through early school age, supporting them through critical developmental milestones. During this time, I have honed skills in daily childcare routines, safety protocols, creative play, and age-appropriate activities. I am organized and detail-oriented in managing schedules, meal preparation, and household responsibilities, while maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and trustworthiness. My natural creativity shines through in how I engage children, whether through outdoor adventures, reading sessions, nature walks, or imaginative play that stimulates learning and joy. I bring an active, energetic approach to childcare that aligns with my genuine love for outdoor activities and physical engagement. I believe children thrive when encouraged to explore, play, and discover the world around them, and I am committed to fostering curiosity and confidence in every child I care for. My honest, reliable nature and strong work ethic have built deep trust with my current family, and I am eager to bring these same qualities to your household. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience, creativity, and dedication to childcare excellence can meet your family's needs. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

“Susan has been nannying for our family for the past three years, caring for our nine year old daughter and three year old son. She is truly the most patient, compassionate, and loving nanny I have ever met. Susan is incredibly flexible, reliable, and dedicated, she puts her whole heart into caring for our children. Over the past three years, she has become so much more than our nanny, she has truly become part of our family. My son is starting preschool full-time in September, and I know it will be a huge adjustment for both of my kids when Susie is no longer here. We will miss her more than we can put into words. Susan has given our children a genuine love for cooking, art, music, and nature. They have loved all of the adventures she takes them on, from trips to the beach, library, parks, the pool, to all the little everyday activities she makes special. She is always engaged, creative, and intentional about making their days fun, meaningful, and enriching. Our kids absolutely adore her, and we feel so lucky to have had her in their lives. I would give Susan more stars if I could! Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her care for their children.”

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
