Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA

My name is Caitlin and I am a fully qualified early childhood educator with eight years of professional experience. I love working with young children and guiding them through their development, and enjoy engaging in fun activities with them such as art projects, pretend play and reading books. Building trusting relationships with children is something I take pride in, and I am known for my calm and nurturing personality. I am currently a lead preschool teacher, working with children ages 3-5, and have also been lead teacher for a two year-old class. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Child-Adolescent Development, along with a minor degree in Special Education. Other certifications I have include child and adult CPR and first aid.

A wonderful teacher we have worked with at our school. She is beloved by all the kids for her easygoing manners and especially our own kid as well. We are always delighted to have her over!

Booked by 8 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi, my name is Azul, I have a degree in Social Communication. I have 6 years of experience in taking care of babies, toddlers + kids. Have CPR and First Aid certifications. Bilingual: English and Spanish. California DL with a clean record (experience driving kids).

Azul filled in for us when our nanny was out of town. She was absolutely amazing with our 1-year old daughter. She communicated so well with her and really helped her feel comfortable almost immediately. She played so well with our daughter and at the end of each day, our daughter was so happy. We couldn't have asked for a better short-term caretaker. We would feel incredibly comfortable using Azul for the long-term, and we can't wait to use Azul again in the future!

Hi Everyone! I’m an experience babysitter and the with passion in fostering children's growth and development. I come from a long line of childhood educators. With 8 years of experience, I've gained the skills necessary to provide a nurturing and educational environment for kids of all ages. I've worked as a swim instructor, working with kids of all ages. I was a Troop Leader for scouts, worked as a tutor and mentor for middle and high school students. I have experience babysitting children of all ages, particularly toddlers. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates about their child's day. My educational background includes a degree from UC Berkeley and coursework of early childhood development. I'm CPR-trained and comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children, as well as engaging in arts and crafts activities. I’m also a former swim instructor, so if your child needs swim lessons I’m more than happy to chat about it :)

Ani was patient, proactive, and calm even when my 3 year old was having a tough time with the transition. We will definitely hire her again!
