Hello all! Thanks so much for your interest! Kids have been a passion of mine ever since I was young! I have been babysitting since the 7th grade, and I was long term (every day after school, Saturday nights, and Sunday mornings and afternoons) for a family in Atlanta for over 4 years. I also traveled with them on their beach vacation as an extra pair of hands. My other experience includes volunteering at my local church with newborns, infants and toddlers. Along with my nannying experience, I was also a camp counselor for two summers (2012 and 2013) with the University of Georgia 4-H program, working with middle school students. Because I was lucky enough to be selected for this competitive position, I am CPRO (CPR for the professional rescuer) certified, as well as a certified Red Cross lifeguard and certified in First Aid. Along with my camp training, I was also a lifeguard in high school in the summers before I graduated as a trained American Red Cross Lifeguard, and was also trained in the Red Cross Learn-To-Swim Swimming Lessons program (k-12). Along with my camp experience in Georgia, I had the wonderful opportunity of working with Camp Galileo in the Bay Area (2 years) and I was a senior team leader at the Manhattan Beach location for Camp G's first summer down south! After working as an outdoor educator (with 4th. 5th, and 6th graders) in the southern California mountains for two years, I moved back to the Bay Area in 2016 and have been working as a nanny ever since. With all my experience, I am able and willing to work with all ages, as well as take any courses parent(s) find necessary to prepare for whatever age needed. I am willing to have a separate background check as well as provide extra references. I love kiddos and I love to be on their level and connect with them. I love fostering an environment for creative play and I consider it a true gift to be able to help them learn, explore and discover! Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you! **UPDATE ON MY PROFILE AS OF 7/2019** I recently took on a new position as a behavioral technician for clients with special needs, providing ABA therapy 6 days a week. Bittersweetly, I no longer have any extra time available to babysit. However, if I delete my UrbanSitter profile I will loose all of my contacts and the wonderful references I have received during my time on this amazing platform. I wish you the best of luck in your search! Thank you!

Hello parents! I'm a bilingual nanny (PT/EN) with over eight years of experience providing care for children, from newborns all the way to teenagers! I’m looking for long-term occasional babysitting opportunities, where I can develop a relationship with the family. 😊 I consider myself to be attentive, sensitive, patient, kind and loving with kids. I believe in creating a partnership with the parents I work with to help raise their kids to grow up being the best humans they can: smart, respectful, curious, compassionate and loving, and I do that by creating a safe, nurturing and enriching environment. Additionally, I’m fully covid vaccinated and boosted, have a valid driver’s license, and a clean driving record. I’m also CPR/First Aid Certified. Both resumé and references can be provided upon request!

Letícia was excellent with our almost two year old and even got him to sleep quicker than we can most nights. I would definitely recommend her and will be happy to have her take care of our child again.

I have had several years of experience working with children of all ages. Working with children is something that I am very passionate about. I graduated from Seattle University Law School and am available currently studying for the bar exam. I am looking for a part-time position and have flexible study hours.

10/10 would recommend! Kailey babysat our daughter along with two of our friends’ children and it went so well! The girls had a blast and felt comfortable with Kailey. It’s awesome that she charges a reasonable price for multiple kiddos. We’re all looking forward to next double date night knowing we have someone to watch the kids.

Hi! My name is Jemma. I work full time in event management but babysat all throughout college as you’ll see on my profile reviews!
