Vivien T.
Looking for work as a babysitter.
- 5 years paid experience
- Babysitter in San Jose, CA 95132
Meet Vivien
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
**ONLY AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE OCCASIONAL AND ONE-TIME CARE**. NO WEEKDAY DAYTIME CARE AVAILABLE. I have been teaching swim lessons, both public and private, since I was 15, working with children as young as 1 year old and as old as 12 years old. Being in the water, I had to pay close attention to up to 5 kids at a time while teaching them each one to become a better, more comfortable swimmer. -- I also have volunteered at my aunt's preschool for many years.. The kids will need help with activities, classwork, or just someone to play with. -- I took several college courses on child development and also obtained my CPR & First Aid certification for my swim instructor position. Being with children is my passion--I love their curious minds, big hearts, and free speech! I have always found teaching them to be extremely fulfilling. I look forward Read more to meeting and caring for more great kids. -- In regards to pets, I have owned many different kinds over the course of my life (cats, hamsters, rabbits, and shellfish). I find animals are precious as kids, as they're so happy and carefree. They can also be very compassionate animals, so I enjoy taking care of them. Friends who own dogs or cats have often remarked that their pet really liked me, which is noteworthy because "he/she doesn't like that many people", so it seems like I have an aura that they find comfortable and enjoy.

Vivien was great! We needed a set of extra hands for the afternoon, and Vivien helped completely wear out our active 3.5 year old. We all enjoyed having her!

Vivien was our family's very first babysitter, and she exceeded our expectations. Vivien was reliable, a good communicator, friendly and engaging. Our 2 year-old was happy to spend a couple of hours with Vivien, who provided fun activities and served a meal. We will certainly ask her to babysit for us again!

She kept pushing me to hire her . And I don’t want to . She couldn’t stop texting me for three days,as a parents you do understand what I am saying. This girl is big no for me
Vivien T.'s reply
My reply comes late as SitterCity just recently gave providers the ability to respond to reviews. It seems like there was a miscommunication as I was trying to coordinate availability with this parent. I only wish for a perfect fit between the care I provide and a family's needs, and hope my positive reviews can be a testament to my work.

We had a wonderful experience with Vivien babysitting our children for a date night. Vivien was prompt, professional, polite and very responsive. My children loved playing with Vivien and rated her a 10 out of 10! We will definitely have her babysit for us again.
