I’am a calm, attentive, and responsible babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I focus on creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and engaged. I’m patient and adaptable, whether that means helping with homework, organizing fun and creative activities, or simply sticking to a child’s routine so they feel secure. I pay close attention to details—like dietary needs, bedtime schedules, and house rules—and I take those seriously. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure to keep parents informed and follow their preferences closely. At the same time, I bring a warm, friendly energy so kids see me as someone they can trust and have fun with, not just someone in charge. Overall, I aim to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children feel confident with.

Hello It’s lovely to meet you! My name is Cori Williams, I have nearly 20 years of experience working with children in the Bay Area. My journey working with children started when I was very young. I started a babysitting business in my neighborhood by going door to door as a pre teen to offer my services. I later got myself CPR and AED certified through my work as a swim instructor and lifeguard, where I spent several years teaching infants and toddlers how to swim and building strong safety skills around water safety and swim team training. After seven years working as a full-time lifeguard and swim instructor, I transitioned into full-time nannying and have since worked closely with several families providing dependable, long-term childcare. I have spent years studying early childhood education and child psychology, and I am currently continuing my education to further deepen my understanding of child development. I am especially passionate about supporting children with diverse developmental needs. Throughout my career I have worked with children with ADHD, autism, behavioral challenges, Down syndrome, and other special care needs. I approach each child with patience, compassion, and an individualized approach that supports their emotional development, confidence, and independence. I strongly believe in gentle parenting practices that prioritize communication, emotional awareness, and respect for children as individuals. A Montessori style of parenting. I focus on creating engaging and enriching environments where children feel safe to express themselves, explore their interests, and grow at their own pace. In addition to childcare, I can also assist families with light household support, meal preparation, organization, school pickups, activity planning, and creating fun educational experiences for children. Outside of work, I enjoy studying child. psychology, holistic living, and creative activities such as art. My long-term goal is to continue my education and eventually work in behavioral therapy supporting children with special needs. I have a clean driving record and can provide strong references upon request. Thank you for your time and consideration! I look forward to meeting with you. Best, Cori Williams 1(916) 500 - 9739
