I’m someone who genuinely enjoys being around kids! I have 5+ years of experience, I’m reliable and patient, and I love keeping kids active, happy, and engaged.
“Vittoria has been watching our two kids, ages 7 and 9, for about a year, and we adore her. She is always on time and completely reliable, but what really makes her special is how present she is with them. She does not just watch them, she plays with them, remembers their favorite books, and truly cares. This past summer, while I was working, she went above and beyond, helping the girls sort through old schoolwork, clear out clothes they had outgrown, and get organized for the next school year. She is honestly a lifesaver. She is quick to respond, sends pictures so we always know how things are going, and is wonderfully flexible when our schedule shifts. We recommend Vittoria wholeheartedly to any family looking for a sitter who is dependable, warm, and truly loves what she does.”
Hi, I'm Srishti! I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Psychology living in San Jose. I have a diverse background in childcare—including experience as a neurodivergent camp counselor and as a volunteer at a local elementary school. My academic background gives me a deep understanding of child development, which helps me create supportive, engaging environments. I love keeping kids active with art projects, park outings, and playing games. I am also fully available for dog, cat, and house sitting. I have multiple local references available and would love to set up a brief introductory meeting to ensure a perfect fit for your family!

“She was great and showed up on time. Very communicative and really helpful with my toddler. ”
Currently, I’m a Behavioral Aide in multiple school districts, mainly focusing on priority jobs from preschool to high school. I specialize with children that have an IEP and/or BIP. I do follow a positive discipline model as that’s important to me. If you have an infant, I know how hard it is to trust someone you don’t know. I’m 100% open to being on camera. I’m background checked, finger printed, clean driving record, all vaccines are current. Myself, I have two amazing daughters 9 and 14. I’ve been fortunate to be a stay at home Mom until they’ve no longer needed me (sigh, lol). I’m open to all jobs, even the last minute sick calls when you have to work. I did graduate from CNA school in October. I pride myself in adhering to the parents requests on what they want for their children.
