Hi! I’m Kassandra, a first-year college student who’s been around kids my whole life as the oldest granddaughter and oldest child in my family. I started babysitting outside of family when I was 16 and now have 1–2 years of experience with kids of all ages. I’m studying with the goal of becoming a child psychologist, so working with kids is something I’m truly passionate about. I drive myself to and from school, so I’m always reliable for getting to jobs on time. I love reading, drawing, and listening to music, and I like bringing that creativity into the time I spend with kids. Parents can count on me to be caring, patient, and dependable.

My name is Pêtra, I am 27 years old, and I am from Brazil. I have extensive experience in childcare, and currently, I take care of a 1-year-old baby. I previously worked as a daycare teacher. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and Literature, which has given me a strong understanding of child development and learning processes. In addition, I have experience working with children of different age groups. I am a caring, responsible, and proactive person who always strives to create a safe, fun, and educational environment for children. I am excited to continue applying my skills and contributing to the well-being and development of little ones!

Hi! My name is Natalie, I am 18, and a senior in high school. I’m a responsible, patient, and caring babysitting who loves working with kids. I’m the oldest of many siblings and I have loved being a big sister all my life. I can help with meals, homework, chores around the house, and keeping kids safe in a fun atmosphere. I strive for safety and the comfortability of both parents and child. I’m dependable, very organized, and I’m happy to help and fit into your family’s routine!

Hey there! I’m a reliable and caregiver with a passion for supporting children of all backgrounds, including those who are neurodivergent or have more complex emotional and behavioral needs. I bring a calm, patient presence and focus on building trust and consistency for every child with whom I work. As a trans woman, I value creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where every child feels respected, understood, and free to express themselves. I’m especially experienced working with K–12 children who may have challenging temperaments, sensory sensitivities, or unique communication styles.

My passion and calling is caring for children. The safety and well being of my charges are paramount to me. I have 30 + years of experience working with children (including but not limited to children with various special needs) in Brazil, Germany, India, Hawaii and now here in CA. Tending to each child's needs with regard to his/her unique personality and developmental stages is my main goal, while still having fun in the process! Families that have experienced my care services describe me as reliable, creative, accommodating, patient, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, loving, and firm when needed (see reviews). Our time together is filled with adventures, age-appropriate activities, reading, imaginative play, walks in nature, music, Yoga, dance, and lots of love. My background is in Speech and Language Therapy, Montessori, and Infant/ Child Development. I am a mother of a 27 year-old son (graduated from UC Berkeley /Computer Science) and a 24 year-old daughter. (UC Santa Cruz /CS). Current CPR/First Aid. Trust Line registered, clean driving record and I own a reliable car. I do not smoke, use drugs, or drink alcohol. During the time your child is under my care, my phone usage is limited to communicate with you. I am fully present, engaging and giving the children my undivided attention. Rates vary, depending on distance and job description. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!
