Hi! My name is Vittoria and I am 22 years old! I studied political science and anthropology during my time in undergrad at UCLA, and I am currently getting my master’s degree in psychology from Columbia University. I spend all of my volunteer hours working with children, most recently I directed the UCLA chapter of Camp Kesem, a summer camp for children impacted by a parent’s cancer. I have worked with children of all ages (<1 year - 18), and am comfortable with any age. I am CPR certified, I believe in doing art and spending time outdoors, and I am a firm believer in the impacts of a positive developmental space. I want to be a part of that positive development.

I am a online senior in high school, which makes me available a lot. I love being able to help and work with kids, I have 5+ year in babysitting experience and 3 years of experience with volunteering in different settings with children, like in a classroom and sleep away camps. I am responsible, creative, and reliable. I am open to and actually prefer to meeting with you before hand and maybe a little interview so that you can get to know me a little more.

Hello! My name is Anna, and I’m 27 years old. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Social Work and looking to offer weekend babysitting in the Roseville/Rocklin/Lincoln area. I’d love to support a local family who could use an extra hand with their little ones!A little about me: 🌼 I absolutely adore children— I worked at a daycare for eight years and have experience with kids of all ages. 🗣️ I speak English and Russian fluently and would be happy to introduce your child to Russian if you’d like! 🩺 I have a background check, CPR certification, and First Aid training for your peace of mind. 🐶 I’m pet-friendly and have two dogs of my own. 🎨 I enjoy fun, creative, and engaging activities like crafts, drawing, puzzles, and simple games. 🥪 I can prepare easy meals or snacks and love taking kids to the park for some fresh air and playtime. Right now, I’m hoping to earn some extra income while finishing my degree and would love to connect with a family in need of a reliable weekend sitter — whether for a date night, a few hours out, or regular weekend help. Feel free to message me with any questions — I’d love to chat and see if we’re a great fit! I look forward to meeting you and your little one soon. 💕
