Booked by 1 family in Burlingame, CA

My name is Victoria, and I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. Growing up in a big family with 7 siblings and 21 nephews and nieces, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I have years of hands-on experience with children of all ages. With so many little ones in my own family, I am comfortable with the joys and challenges that come with every stage of childhood. Whether it's helping with homework, organizing activities, or simply being a warm and reliable presence, I love being a helping hand. I am also happy to assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands, making daily life a little easier for the families I work with. When it comes to senior care, my big family has taught me the value of looking after those who need extra support. I am patient, attentive, and always ready to help with meals, appointments, or simply good company. If your family could use an extra pair of loving, capable hands, I'd love to connect!

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ana Luiza, and I am 19 years old. I am currently at college majoring in Medical Assisting. I have been working with children for a couple of years and currently work at the Boys & Girls Club, where I help supervise children, assist with homework, organize educational and recreational activities, and create a safe, positive environment for kids of different ages. In addition to my current position, I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and have extensive experience caring for children, especially newborns, infants, toddlers, and children up to 4 years old. I am comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, nap schedules, playtime, and bedtime routines. I am patient, responsible, caring, and energetic. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. My experience working with families and in childcare settings has taught me the importance of communication, reliability, and creating a fun and nurturing environment for every child. I am fluent in Portuguese and English and also I speak a little bit of Spanish, which allows me to communicate with diverse families and even introduce children to a bilingual environment if desired. I take pride in being dependable, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I look forward to supporting families and providing loving, high-quality care for their children.

“Ana Luiza has looked after my son Anthony since he was just two months old; he loves her. She is very affectionate and caring. She takes excellent care of Anthony—whenever the daycare is closed for holidays, she is always there to look after him. She is trustworthy; you can confidently leave your children in her care, knowing she will look after them exceptionally well.”

Hello! My name is Lori, and I’m an experienced, caring, and dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. After 15 wonderful years in my professional career, I recently stepped away to embrace a more balanced lifestyle. I’m now looking for a few babysitting opportunities each week where I can do something I truly enjoy—caring for and connecting with children. Being a daycare provider help me financially through college. I’m a mom of two children and raised them as a single parent, so I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust and feel completely comfortable leaving their children with. I was also the primary caregiver for my father before he passed away, which further strengthened my patience, compassion, and sense of responsibility. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I currently babysit a 2½-year-old on a consistent basis and have been part of his life since he was a baby. I’ve also volunteered at Stanford Children’s Hospital in the Newborn Hearing Screening Unit, an experience that gave me additional exposure to newborns and families. I’m nurturing, patient, attentive, and responsible, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for children. I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and preferences and understand the importance of keeping parents informed and comfortable while they’re away. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d be happy to tell you more about myself and my experience!

Ysabella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Bella. I work Monday- Thursday and am looking for a babysitting job for Fridays. I am the oldest of 3 and started babysitting when I was 15. I have 10+ years of experience with ages 4 months and up. I have 7 yrs of experience working with children with Downs Syndrome as well. I am comfortable with kids going through periods of being fussy or having a hard time being away from their parents. I like to keep them engaged with whatever fits their developmental stage whether that be reading books, singing, going to the park, or playing games around the house. If the kids have chores or responsibilities around the house I will make sure they get done if needed. I am CRP and first aid certified and have had experience with medical emergencies. Those moments showed me the importance of being trained in life saving procedures. I am proud to say in those moments my training helped me stay calm and take appropriate action. I have a Honda Civic and don’t mind taking kids places or running errands. I am open to light house keeping like dishes, laundry, and cooking. I grew up in Petaluma and am very close with my family. In my free time I enjoy exploring the city, hiking, and hanging out with friends.

Hi all, I am a graduate student and have just finished 8 years as a high school teacher.

I have experience working with families with kids ranging in age from newborn-teens. In the past I have managed a summer camp, taught outdoor education, worked as a full-time nanny, and now I am a teacher. I am active, caring and creative and enjoy spending time outside, crafts, cooking, and more. I am looking forward to getting to know your family!
