Alex Walnut Creek
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Alex, I have been working at a daycare for the past 2 years and I absolutely love working with kids of all ages. I love the one on one time with the kids the most and that is why I am looking for a change of pace. I absolutely love the great outdoors and doing creative things to help further the children’s development. I’ve been wanting to spend more one on one time with a few kids at a time so that I can really connect with them and watch them grow as little humans.

Booked by 1 family in Clayton, CA

I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old, primarily caring for my two nieces, who are now 10 and 6 years old. Through this experience, I’ve gained hands-on knowledge in supervising children of different ages, managing routines, and handling various needs from playtime to bedtime. In addition to family babysitting, I worked two summers at a daycare center where I was responsible for diaper changes, assisting with potty training, preparing and feeding meals, and ensuring a safe and engaging environment. During this time, I also learned and followed key safety regulations and best practices in childcare, including hygiene standards, and age-appropriate activities.

Natalie is wonderful! We interviewed via FaceTime and she really connected with my kiddos. She arrived on time, eager to learn, and constantly helped out the entire time. Even when they were crying she really kept trying to soothe them, calm them down. She played with them and gave them her full attention.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Quantitative Psychology at UC Davis. I come from a family of four but have experience sitting for my baby cousins, dogs and keeping the kids entertained. I love caregiving because of the ability to be there for kids to have fun and also make sure they are doing so in a kind and respectful manner. Something about me is I am a nature lover and an athlete! I have been running track for about 6 years now competitively and I love being a part of a team community and making friends though my love for the sport.
