A little bit about me…
Hey there!
My name is Oleksandra. I'm originally from Ukraine, and came over to the states in 2022 to build a better future for myself and my family. I've recently relocated to the Bay Area to be closer with my grandma while also going to the College of San Mateo working towards my Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood Education.
I am a kind hearted, caring, and patient young woman.
Recently I've gained lots of experience caring for my fiancé's adorable 14-month-old niece.
I've always been naturally good with children, and my time with her has helped me gain even more experience taking great care of someone's young loved one.
I like being active through the day, so hiking or pilates are my best friends.
In my leisure time I also like to cook, bake, read, or to spend time with my grandma.
I'm looking to build a long term working relationship with a family who has childcare needs, and would greatly appreciate any opportunities presented to me.

A little bit about me…
With over three years of part-time babysitting experience, I have developed a strong passion for caring for children, especially toddlers aged 1-6. Throughout my babysitting career, I’ve gained valuable skills in ensuring children’s safety, providing engaging activities, and fostering positive, nurturing environments.
My approach is patient, reliable, and attentive, focusing on creating fun, educational experiences for the kids I care for. I understand the importance of maintaining clear communication with parents and adjusting to each child’s individual needs and preferences. Whether it's playtime, meals, or bedtime routines, I always strive to make sure kids feel safe, loved, and entertained. I’m also happy to assist with light household tasks and any other needs as they arise.
