Find a babysitter in Pleasanton, CA

*at this time I am not accepting new families but will update if that changes!* Hi there, my name is Eva and I am 27 years old. I first graduated from college in 2021, where I obtained my degree in political science, and have completed my second degree in psychology. I have always enjoyed and excelled at working with children. For two years, I have worked with children aged infant to Kindergarten in a daycare setting and am a fully qualified childcare teacher in the state of California. Most of my time is spent with the toddler (12 to 23 months) age group, but I have experience in classrooms with children up to age 6. Additionally, I have about 4 years of volunteer experience with preschool and lower elementary aged children in both a formal and summer camp setting. I have worked with families both on and off Urban Sitter for 3 years, with children ranging in age from 1 to 10 years old. The opportunity to impart knowledge and bring joy to children, or even be a playmate, is a rewarding experience - I believe children can be our teachers too. I understand how crucial it is that you feel comfortable with the person taking care of your children - and I would be happy to speak further, answer any questions, or tell you more about myself.

Hi! I’m Katie, a 23 year old artist with a BFA in Fashion Design from Parsons in NYC. I recently moved back home to the Tri-Valley and am looking for babysitting roles during this transitional period of my life. I’ve been around children in my community my whole life, taken child development/psychology courses in school (high school and college-level), have worked at a gym daycare for 1 year, and babysat in NYC— so you’re in good hands! A little bit about my childcare philosophy: I am passionate about holistic wellbeing and learning through creativity/activity. I see childcare as a two-way relationship that prioritizes the child’s unique development. I also learn so much by being around children! I’m extremely reliable, honest, and communicative, and will ensure that the parent’s wishes are met, and, of course, the safety of your child. I’m great at engaging children in active play and crafts, if that’s something you would like. I am comfortable cooking/preparing snacks for your child as needed and going through bedtime routines. I have experience working with all ages, from as young as 7 months. I look forward to meeting with you and your little one(s), thank you! 🥰 ~ Katie 🎨🌱🫧❣️🎀

With over 20 years of experience in childcare, I have dedicated my career to providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children of all ages. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children, supporting their emotional, social, and developmental growth through patience, creativity, and consistency. I have completed Early Childhood Education (ECE) coursework and understand the importance of age-appropriate learning, routines, and positive guidance. Throughout my career, I have built strong relationships with families by providing dependable, compassionate care and maintaining open communication with parents. My experience includes full-time nanny care, infant care, newborn care specialist, doula, and preschool teacher. I also have experience providing care in my home, offering families a warm, comfortable, and family-oriented environment. I am passionate about helping children learn and grow while giving parents peace of mind knowing their child is in caring and capable hands.

I am a highly experienced caregiver and educator offering a premium, enrichment-focused childcare experience. With a doctorate in music and over 20 years of service as a youth teacher in my church community, I bring a unique blend of academic depth, creativity, and nurturing care to each family I work with. As a mother of two (ages 11 and 16), I understand firsthand the importance of consistency, structure, and emotional attunement. I create an environment where children are not only well cared for, but also intellectually and creatively engaged through music, guided learning, and thoughtful interaction. My weekday afternoons are dedicated to my work as a piano instructor and to caring for my own children; I am now intentionally seeking to support younger families during morning/early afternoon hours, where I can offer high-quality care. I approach every child with the same level of love, attentiveness, and responsibility that I give my own, and I value building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Hi! My name is Violet and I am from Pleasanton! I have previous experience working with children from nannying kids of relatives to various neighborhood children. I am fluent in Mandarin and can converse in basic English. I value a child's schedule to make sure they are not only eating and sleeping right healthily, but also happy and having fun. I am skilled with infants and can even assist with potty training. I love what I do and have always had a passion for working with kids so I would love to work with you and your family to provide the best care for your little ones! I’d describe my personality as extroverted, easy going, and thoughtful. I'm naturally out going and love to meet new people! I like working with kids because they bring so much energy and curiosity into every interaction. What I love is being able to be a part of their growing journey! From discovering unique strengths to helping them learn new things, it's incredibly rewarding to be a positive influence on a child's life. I’m looking for a job where I can build a trusting relationship between the children and the families! I want to work in a positive, respectful environment where there is open communication with kindness and consistency. I started working with kids when I first became a mom! I am a mom of three: my oldest is 20, middle is 16, and youngest is 9. Being a mom has given me my years of experience in child care. In my spare time, I love to hike, spend time outdoors, and explore new places! I love getting fresh air and enjoying nature. When winding down, I like to spend time with family and watch new movies and shows. My skills include potty training, patience, and creativity. I have lots of expertise with potty training as I've had to do it for my own little ones! I am calm and patient even in challenging situations to best support children. I love coming up with ways to engage a child in learning through play time so they learn skills while also having fun!
