$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in La Mesa, 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.”

Summer $22 per hour for 1 child

I volunteered at a daycare for one year, where I assisted in caring for children ages 2–4. My responsibilities included supervising activities, helping with meals, supporting nap time routines, and reading to the children. This experience helped me develop strong childcare skills, patience, and the ability to create a safe and positive environment for young children. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from San Diego State University (SDSU) and am also comfortable caring for animals. I have previously completed CPR training; although my certification recently expired, I am willing to renew it before providing care for children or seniors. I am highly patient, dependable, and an effective communicator. In addition, I worked as a Shift Supervisor at KFC for eight years, where I independently managed shifts and was responsible for team leadership, conflict resolution, staff coordination, and delivering excellent customer service. This role strengthened my organizational skills, leadership abilities, and sense of responsibility. With extensive experience in the food service industry, I am knowledgeable about food safety regulations, proper food handling and preparation procedures, and maintaining high standards of cleanliness and sanitation.
