I am Howard University alumnae. I love having an active lifestyle. I’ve been babysitting for the past fourteen years. I teach children from 2-18 years old how to play golf. I love to complete puzzles, play outside, and play with toys. When it comes to deciding one over the other, I would much rather read to your children than have them stare at a television screen. I believe children learn better when they are less reliant on technology for entertainment.
“Ih she's wonderful! Good energy, on time, great communication. My kid just laughed and laughed! She plays well with the kids. So glad to have found her.”
Hello! My name is Victoria and I have years of experience in child care. I am a newborn care specialist and a trained postpartum doula. I have worked as a nanny/babysitter for 15+years, and currently am an arts educator in theatre. I direct children’s plays and help manage a performing arts studio. I have experience with children of all ages. I love yoga, the outdoors, coloring, theatre, singing, dancing, vegetables, and ice cream! It would be a pleasure to meet you and your family :)
“We loved meeting Victoria, and our kids had so much fun! We’re looking forward to seeing her again soon!”
Hi my name is Audrey and I am 27 years old. I have been babysitting/nannying with kids since I was 15 and have lots of experience with helping cook clean and run errands if needed also I love animals so no problem! In my free time I like to go on walks go to the park, picnics, read cook or play games. I do have a car so transportation is not necessary! I am around most evenings from 5-12pm so if you ever need a date night sitter, to run afternoon errands or even workout I’m around :) Please feel contact to text me if u have questions.
Hi there! I’m Naomi, I recently graduated from SFSU with a bachelor’s in communications! I also work with a local nonprofit that provides after-school child care. I get to teach and supervise a group of awesome first graders every day, and it’s truly the highlight of my week. I love working with kids and always strive to bring a mix of fun, creativity, and care into everything we do — whether it’s arts and crafts, nature walks, or fun kitchen experiments. I’m also a big-time dog lover, so I’m more than happy to help out with pet sitting too! Can’t wait to meet your little ones (and furry friends)!
“Naomi filled in for another babysitter last minute and the kids loved her! ”
