About Valerie

Experience: 10 yrs

I have 18 years experience caring for children of all ages (newborn-19.) I am experienced with special needs children including ADHD, Autism Spectrum, Asperger's, FAS, Cerebral Palsy, Diabetes, Down Syndrome, and severe food allergies. I am CPR and 1st Aid Certified, Registered with Trustline and LiveScan, Clean background check. I have safe, reliable, and insured transportation. I enjoy spending my days with children. We will keep busy by going to parks, libraries, activities, play dates, walks, games, arts and crafts, baking, cooking, cleaning, running errands. I have experience as a part time special needs para-educator for Santa Clara unified school district. I am currently seeking school breaks, and summer vacation. I am aware of what is needed on a daily basis and can be trusted to accomplish those goals.

We found Valerie through Stanford Park Nannies. Valerie often babysits our two active boys (six and three). Our three year old is always nervous of babysitters at first but Calerie calms him after a few minutes. The boys are always happy and tired after a day of play when we come home several hours later. The kids like her a lot, and we highly recommend her!
