I’m a CPR/AED‑certified caregiver and STEM tutor who pairs a calm, reliable presence with truly engaging, age‑appropriate activities. My background includes mentoring and outdoor supervision, accessibility support for students with disabilities, and a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science & Management. Families who hire me get a safety‑first professional who communicates clearly, follows through, and creates structure kids thrive in. My care style blends warmth with intention. I build simple routines that make days run smoothly, then layer in enrichment: story time and sensory play for little ones; crafts, nature walks, and beginner science experiments for school‑age kids; study skills and math/science tutoring for preteens and teens. I’m patient, adaptable, and great at meeting each child where they are—especially when a quieter, steadier approach makes all the difference. I bring advanced training and hands‑on experience that high‑expectation families value. I’m CPR/AED certified and trained in accessibility from directly assisting a blind student with note‑taking, reading, and exam support. I’m food‑safety informed and meticulous about home standards—tidy spaces, prepped snacks, organized activity areas, and smooth transitions. I’m also outdoorsy and happy to plan healthy, active time outside whenever appropriate. Day to day, I can handle school pickups, homework and test prep, light meal prep, kid laundry and room reset, activity planning, and bedtime routines. I’m pet‑friendly and comfortable integrating care with family schedules and house rules. Expect proactive updates, clear boundaries delivered with kindness, and thoughtful problem‑solving if challenges come up. If you’re seeking a dependable sitter who delivers both exceptional care and meaningful enrichment, I’d love to support your family. References are available upon request, and I’m happy to align on routines, goals, and a schedule that fits your needs.
“Victoria helped me watch my two boys. She’s great with pets too. She’s a reliable and kind care giver. She’s great with sports and arts and crafts. She encouraged my kids to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors. Tori is a trustworthy babysitter/nanny.”
I am a high-energy extrovert who truly loves creating "backyard adventures" for the little ones I care for! With over 10 years of residency in San Francisco, I am well-versed in the city’s best museums, parks, and extracurricular activities. I have 2 years of experience specifically with infants and toddlers, and I pride myself on bringing a bubbly personality and a constant smile to every playdate. Beyond childcare, I am a trusted pet sitter for cats and dogs, and I am always happy to help with light household tasks. Recently, I spent time supporting a close friend following a medical emergency. She had a stroke during the first month of pregnancy and lost function of her right hand. I was able to provide full-time care for her 5-month-old and managing household chores so she could focus on recovery. I find deep fulfillment in being the person a family can lean on. I look forward to bringing that same dedication, joy, and local expertise to your home!
