Booked by 209 families in San Ramon, CA

Hello! My name is Kassandra, however, I prefer to go by Kassie. (I apologize that video in my profile is old, I will update it when I can). I am a student who works as a waitress as it is accommodating. I am currently enrolled at SJSU as a Psychology major with a double minor in Child Development and Sociology. I’m looking down a career pathway of becoming a Child Psychologist, therapist/counselor, school counselor, behaviorist therapist or something along that path. I love working with children and I want to make a career out of it. I have received AAs in Psychology, Allied Health, Natural Science and Health Education. I love to help others. I’ve always wanted to follow in my grandma’s footsteps with saving lives and making a difference by working in the medical field. I am COVID-19 vaccinated and boosted as well as flu vaccinated. I have also received all my other vaccines. My experience with children goes back to when I first started babysitting at the age of 12. I have worked at day cares where I have experience with children from infancy to 15 years of age. I am comfortable with all age groups. I do not smoke. I love animals as well so pets are never an issue! I have experience house sitting/petsitting as well. I have been house sitting/petsitting since I was 13 years old. It first started out with watching my neighbor’s house and cats while they were gone and progressed to dog sitting/cat sitting at other people’s houses. I am very responsible and respectful of other people's homes. I clean up after myself and make sure the house looks like it did when I arrived.

“My daughter loved Kassie. She was sweet and communicated well with us. I would definitely recommend booking her.”

Hi my name is Alyssa! I have been babysitting and working with kids for over 9 years. I have experience with cooking, cleaning, and organizing. Currently I am a preschool teacher and have worked with children from 18m and on. When I come to your house to watch your children, I always bring activities for them to do. Whether it’s arts and crafts or playing with cars or dinosaurs I love to sit alongside your child and help them learn through play by asking them questions about what they are playing with and also asking questions to get to know them. I am very good with taking care multiple children as I take care of 8 kids in my classroom daily by myself. Let me know if you have questions and want to set up a phone call or video call.

“My family and daughter LOVED Yenny! She was our nanny for 3 months, from when my daughter was 6 to 9 months, while I transitioned back from mat leave and until we moved out of state. She was an incredible help to my family, taking great care of my daughter especially as a first time mom. She is beyond qualified and has great experience in taking care of children of all ages. Yenny was so warm, patient, caring, gentle and natural with our daughter. My daughter really grew to love her in the time we were together. They developed a great routine together - they would go on walks in the neighborhood, have picnics at the park, play in the backyard or the family room, read books together, play music together, and Yenny would talk to her throughout the day which is great for development. Yenny's knowledge of child development was always so helpful to hear and at the same time she was always respectful of what my husband and I wanted. We can't thank her enough for our time together!!”

Hello, I’m Jemma! I’m a credentialed history teacher currently earning my master’s in U.S. History. I have over eight years of experience working with kids ages 6–14 as an outdoor educator and camp counselor, and I’ve also spent several years babysitting younger children. I love creating engaging, hands-on activities and am always looking for new ways to spark creativity and joy in the kids I care for. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and a certified Wilderness First Responder, so your child’s safety is always a top priority. I bring patience, energy, and a deep respect for each child’s unique personality to every babysitting job. Fun fact: I speak fluent Mandarin and have spent a lot of time in Taiwan! Whether you're looking for a date night sitter or weekend help, I’d love to support your family with reliable, caring, and experienced childcare.
