$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Potrero, CA

With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children ranging from 6 weeks old to school-aged, I am a dedicated and nurturing babysitter who truly loves working with kids. My background includes working with infants, toddlers, and young children, adapting to each stage of development with patience, warmth, and understanding. Most recently, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a 2-year-old and a 3-year-old, providing full-day care including school drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing light meals, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities that support learning and development. I take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel secure and families feel confident in the care I provide. Whether it’s tummy time for infants, imaginative play for toddlers, I approach each day with compassion, reliability, and a genuine passion for helping children thrive. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.

Vivianne is amazing with kids! She connected so well with my daughter. My husband and I work very demanding law enforcement jobs and having Vivianne taking care of our daughter gave us so much peace in our hearts and minds. Vivianne went above and beyond to make our daughter feel comfortable with her. Vivianne is so organized and communicative that my husband and I felt comfortable at work and were able to perform our duties and were worried about our daughter. Vivianne is a very trust worthy person and she is reliable. We deeply recommend Vivianne to take care of your child.
