Eray Burlingame
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Eray and I’m 18 years old, currently a college student. I enjoy helping families with simple and reliable support such as keeping an eye on children, picking them up or dropping them off, and making sure they are safe and cared for. I am responsible, patient, and easy to work with. Families can count on me to be punctual, dependable, and attentive. Whether it’s supervising, providing safe rides, or just being there as support, I’m happy to help make daily routines easier. I am also comfortable with pets (except cats, due to allergies)

Nataly Millbrae
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Nataly, and I'm passionate about working with children and supporting their development. Over the past two years, I’ve cared for infants and have loved being a part of their early growth stages. I currently work at a preschool as a Community Services Specialist, where I help ensure our students are developing on track through screenings and family support. My role allows me to work closely with both children (3-5yo) and their families, creating meaningful relationships and providing valuable resources when needed. I'm also bilingual in English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a diverse range of families. I bring patience, care, and professionalism to every child I work with, and I look forward to supporting your family however I can!

Renad San Mateo
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Renad, and I’m excited to apply for a babysitting position! I have several years of experience working with children of various age groups, from toddlers to pre-teens. I've spent time helping kids with their homework, especially in math and geometry, and I love seeing them gain confidence in subjects they once found difficult. In terms of child care, I provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I enjoy doing creative and engaging activities like arts and crafts, story time, and indoor games. I’m especially good at helping with schoolwork and can provide tutoring in math if needed. I’m dependable, patient, and always keep communication open with parents. I’m also trained in basic child safety and have experience following routines, managing mealtimes, and handling bedtime routines. If you're looking for someone who’s caring, reliable, and can offer both childcare and academic support, I’d love to be considered! Although I’m a bit scared of dogs, I’m completely fine around cats.

Booked by 140 families in Burlingame, CA

Hello families! ¡Hola, Familias! I am Paula (or Pau). I was born and raised in Colombia; I moved to the US in 2014 as an Au Pair (live-in nanny). I worked with two families in two different cities and have remained a nanny ever since. Some of the things I love are music, spending time outdoors, animals, hiking, dancing, swimming, and reading. My experience with kids began when I was 10. I come from a huge family, so I've been around kids my whole life. I am very energetic and creative so I like to come up with different activities age-convenient outside and inside the house, I have worked with kids of all ages including twins, newborns and toddlers; I love to spend time with kids, I like to play with them and teach them new things (like Spanish) and I think that security is the key to proper development for the kids so my primary goal is to make kids feel safe to play and learn and have fun of course! If you have any questions/or you don't see availability in my calendar, please feel free to message me. Hablo español porque soy de Colombia. Si tiene dudas, preguntas o peticiones, por favor no dude en enviarme un mensaje, con mucho gusto le atiendo. Thank you for your interest. ****SITTER POLICY*** - By scheduling a booking with me, you're acknowledging that you've read and will abide by this policy. -PAYMENT: Cash only, please. -AVAILABILITY: Occasional and temporary part-time care. Pet and house sitting. -RATES: My rates are the same whether the child is awake or asleep and the rate per hour depends on the amount of chores and responsibilities I’ll be in charge of. I charge double time for the following holidays: New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, 4th of July, Thanksgiving Day, Day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and Day after Christmas. CANCELATIONS: I understand that plans change. However, I do recommend a 48-hour notice so I can try to fulfill my calendar with a new booking. BOOKINGS: I charge for the full time I was booked for , regardless if I get dismissed earlier than expected because I plan my time and my budget around my bookings. So please, give me a 48h notice if you need to cancel. Also, if you plan on arriving later than expected, please let me know at least 1 hour before the booking is supposed to end. I'm usually flexible with late arrivals, but sometimes I have more than one booking on the same day, and your late arrival can negatively affect the rest of my day. Thanks for reading! :)

Paula was great! Very calm and a natural caregiver. Our kids want to know when she's coming back....
