Find a babysitter in Lafayette, CA

Hello! I am a proactive, responsible and dedicated nanny, family assistant and household manager. I have 10 plus years of recent professional experience, excellent references, letters of recommendation, and I am currently looking for evening jobs! I love adventuring with kids or interactive playtime at home. I enjoy going for hikes in nature, walks to the park, library or museums, spotting airplanes, wildlife, flowers, great books and art. I also like playing games and doing arts and crafts, building lego creations & forts, playing with dolls and animals, or reading books with hot cocoa on a rainy day. A simple peek-a-boo session, singing ABC’s, practicing counting or tummy time for the little ones:) I have experience providing support with school drop off/pick up, driving children to and from after school activities, homework assistance, as well as household chores, preparing snacks & meals, doing laundry, running errands, dog walking, traveling with the family and overnight care. In addition, I have experience managing and assisting with household inventory, scheduling appointments and communicating with contractors, housekeepers or caterers, organizing closets and calendars, and managing packing lists and travel preparations. I am discreet and respectful of a family’s privacy when needed and yet I welcome sharing a meal with them when invited. I am flexible enough to calmly transition from meal prep to children to dishes and back to children again:) I am very healthy and live an active lifestyle outside of work. I am close to completing an associate in arts degree for transfer. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

My name is Marisa. I have a 6 month old daughter. I am 38 years old. I have always had a love for working with children. I am also a birth and postpartum doula. I am a lifeguard, as well as a swim instructor. I have completed all of my Early Childhood Education units. I have 38 ECE units. I have my teaching credentials through California. I have worked with special needs children as well. I I am trust line certified. I love animals of all kinds. I also own a pet sitting and dog walking business. I love doing arts & crafts, play dates, hiking, organizing, photography, painting, swimming, laughing, playing dress up, eating healthy, Zumba, hiking, cooking, baking, traveling, ice skating, dancing, and having a good time. I have a very safe and reliable vehicle that I have transported many children in. I have a clean driving record. I'm a non smoker/ non drug user. I feel its most important to truly engage with the children rather then just sitting them in front of a television. I do ask when contacting me and booking me for a particular job that you let me know ahead of time if there is any issue in regards to where to park. CANCELLATION POLICY: I plan my time and budget around the hours booked, I am aware that things come up from time to time, and I am very understanding of this, so if its less then a week notice for cancellation I do ask that I be paid for 50% of my time that was booked. It's hard to fill last minute gigs. Thank you.

Hello! My name is Breanna Vargas, and I am a 20-year-old babysitter based in Lafayette, California. I have over 3 years of childcare experience. I cared for children for 3 years in Mexico and also have childcare experience here in the United States. I have experience caring for children of all ages and can provide excellent references. Spanish is my first language, and I am currently learning English. Having long conversations in English can still be challenging for me, but I have successfully worked with English-speaking families. I recently cared for a one-year-old child, and we always had good communication regarding his care, routines, and needs. I stopped caring for him because I started school. I am a patient, loving, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver who truly enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn and grow in a safe and nurturing environment. I would be happy to answer any questions and provide references upon request.

I bring to the role a solid background in child development and many years of professional nanny + teaching experience. I am a trained NCS and a pediatric sleep coach. My availability varies for occasional or regular care, whether it is for your newborn, toddler, after school support, or sleep training your baby. I am a reliable caregiver and responsible driver, CPR/ First Aid trained and vaccinated.
