🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒Repeat families: DM if my sched is unavailable; I’ll do my best to make it work. 🙋‍♀️Hi! I’m Ms. Dani! 👩🏻‍🏫I am a full-time teacher in a private school in Milpitas with 7 years of experience in child care/childhood education. (Preschool to middle school) 🏠I am from the 🇵🇭 and moved to the 🇺🇸in 2017. I currently reside in Fremont, Ca. 🚭 I live in a non-smoking home, and I’m hoping to work in one as well. 🎓I have a bachelor's Degree in Communication Arts, Early Childhood Education, and Caregiving Certificate. ⛑I hold a valid Adult and Pediatric CPR and First Aid AED certification. 👶 I do help with whatever the child needs (feeding, light cooking, potty training, tidying, folding clothes). Games, crafts, tutoring, and homework. 🚙 I drive my own car. 💉My household is fully vaccinated and all of my vaccines and tests are updated (Covid, Flu, T-Dap, TB test, etc). 🥰 I treat children as my own and love to make them feel safe with me. Feel free to ask me any questions! If I don’t respond right away, it’s because I am focused on children during work hours. ⌚️I require 3 hours minimum job service to compensate for my commute. 🐈 (feed,litter,etc) 50$ flat 🚍One-way School Pick-up or Drop off: 50$ flat (no car seat) ⌛️Time is very important to me as I have other jobs and a family waiting for me.

I could consider caring for a sick child but please do inform me beforehand. I have other children to protect. Thank you for understanding. 🧩 If your child has special needs, it would be helpful to add it to the job description. 💩 I usually carry gloves with me, but it would be nice if you provided them if your child needs diaper changes. 🗓️ Please check my calendar for my availability. 🦄My babysitter/teacher goal: Help children create the fondest childhood memory they could have! 👩‍💻Here is my LinkedIn account if you want to take a look:[removed] (Yes, I was a journalist before I found my love for working with children!) 💰Payment method: I prefer Zelle or cash, but I also accept check or credit card payments through this app Thank you for your interest! 💕❤️💕 Looking forward to caring for and meeting your family.

Hi, I’m Leighanna! I’m a nursing student with over 11 years of babysitting experience, starting when I was just 13. I’ve cared for children of all ages and pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and calm in any situation. Alongside childcare, I also offer dog sitting—I have two sweet pups of my own, Okia and Yumi, so animals are very close to my heart. I earned my undergraduate degree from San Francisco State University and am now pursuing my master’s in Nursing. Outside of school and sitting, I love to bake and have been dancing for 22 years, which keeps me creative, active, and full of energy. I bring that same warmth, responsibility, and enthusiasm into every family I work with and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for kids. 🚗 Rates & Transportation: 🚗 My standard rate is $30/hour minimum for one child. I’m always happy to discuss rates and am comfortable accepting bookings at a different posted rate if one is listed. For families located across the bridge, I kindly ask for assistance with the bridge toll, which is currently $8.50. ❌Cancellations❌ Because I reserve time specifically for your family and may turn down other opportunities, any booking canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice will incur a cancellation fee equal to one hour of care at my normal rate. If plans change or a booking ends early for reasons outside of my control, I ask that the reserved booking time be honored for payment unless we’ve agreed on a different arrangement in advance. I completely understand that unexpected situations can come up, and I appreciate your understanding and consideration of my time. Thank you!

Hi! My name is Alondra, and I am currently a senior at the University of San Francisco majoring in Nursing. My goal is to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and supporting their growth and well-being. I offer reliable, compassionate childcare whenever my school schedule allows. I am CPR certified and a registered caregiver through the state, with experience caring for both children and my own grandparents. My healthcare background has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to remain calm in different situations, giving parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, so I am happy to communicate with bilingual families or help children practice Spanish. I’ve also been dancing since I was 3 years old and love incorporating fun, creative activities like dancing, crafts, reading, outdoor play, and games into my time with kids. I love dogs, so I’m more than comfortable caring for pets as well! My goal is to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their children, and I strive to be dependable, attentive, and communicative every step of the way. I look forward to meeting your family!

Alondra came to sit for our two kids this weekend and she was wonderful! She arrived a few minutes early. She listened closely to my instructions and asked questions. All my instructions were followed and my kids said they had a great time with her. She also cleaned up after the kids which was so appreciated! We would love to have Alondra back to sit again!
