Hi parents! I’ve been in United States since 2019. I came as an au pair and now I’m a college student. All this time I had the pleasure of taking care of kids from different ages: 8 months to 12 years. With the kids I like to read books, paint, play, take them to parks or different places if the parent is comfortable. I’m a person that is very patient, calm, respectful and trustworthy.

“Karen was very friendly and professional, our daughter really enjoyed her! We would definitely hire her again. ”

Hello! I love interacting and taking care of children. I have had experience taking care of my cousins ​​and neighbors, along with helping raise my little sister. These few years, I got more experience by taking care my two little brothers too. I am really interested in child development. Therefore, I am taking class to understand better their development. I am currently a college student. On the lighter side, I love pets, dance, reading and outdoor activities. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your family!

I am local to Marin/SF and a Mom to my daughter who is now in college. In addition to being a parent, I have been babysitting off and on for many years. I have pretty high standards as far as child care goes. I think it is important to engage (not sit on your phone), and make sure the children feel well looked after. I like to check in via text now and again during the job so the parents feel connected and reassured. I'm happy to be in a home with dogs as I have two sweet dogs of my own. ***PLEASE NOTE: I expect to be paid for the full time that you book, regardless if you return home early- appreciate your understanding on this. Thanks!

“Cassandra is incredible - our kids felt comfortable with her immediately and love hanging out with her. She’s trustworthy, reliable, and always warm and patient with the kids. Highly recommend Cassandra!”
