Babysitters in Irvington District, CA

Hi! My name is Alyssa Shipman, and I’m a college student studying at College of San Mateo. I have over seven years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens—and absolutely love helping kids learn, play, and grow in a safe and positive environment. I also have experience as a swim instructor and a Transitional Kindergarten Teacher Aide, which has strengthened my skills in child supervision, safety, and early learning support. I’m CPR and AED certified, dependable, and great at keeping kids engaged through creative activities, outdoor play, and structured routines. I take pride in being responsible, patient, and fun—someone kids feel comfortable with and parents can trust. Whether you need occasional help or regular care, I’d love to support your family and ensure your children are happy, active, and well cared for!

I am a nature lover who enjoys exploring the world alongside the children I work with, encouraging them to navigate their surroundings in a safe and structured way. I believe in fostering children’s autonomy and providing them with opportunities to explore, discover, and learn through experience. My philosophy centers on ensuring that every child feels safe, seen, understood, and heard. I hold a background in Early Childhood Education and have over seven years of experience in childcare.
