I’m a reliable and trustworthy mom from Castro Valley with a wonderful ninth-grader. I previously taught at a public school here in Castro Valley, and I hold an active California teaching credential for multiple subjects and special education. I love caring for children, tutoring, and would be happy to support a parent who is homeschooling. I have a clean California driver’s license, full insurance coverage, and I’m certified to drive for field trips at my son’s school.

Hello, my life has always revolved around children. I worked with my local school district for over 20 years as a Chid Aide. The program was designed to improve a child's self-esteem and improve comfortability in a social setting. This was done through interactive play sessions where a child can truly be themselves. Apart from raising my own three children, I have also worked at a daycare providing a safe and educational environment for up to 12 children. Nutritional cooking is also a big part of my life and something I enjoy sharing. My passion is caring for children in fun, educational, musical, and artistic ways.

“She has a lot of patience and kind during her time with our son, and with Alex's help, my son was able to spend good time playing and sleeping, while we can take a rest from the day-to-day childcare. I would definitely like to invite Alex back to my home if I need another childcare.”

Booked by 211 families in Dublin, CA

Hello! My name is Kassandra, however, I prefer to go by Kassie. (I apologize that video in my profile is old, I will update it when I can). I am a student who works as a waitress as it is accommodating. I am currently enrolled at SJSU as a Psychology major with a double minor in Child Development and Sociology. I’m looking down a career pathway of becoming a Child Psychologist, therapist/counselor, school counselor, behaviorist therapist or something along that path. I love working with children and I want to make a career out of it. I have received AAs in Psychology, Allied Health, Natural Science and Health Education. I love to help others. I’ve always wanted to follow in my grandma’s footsteps with saving lives and making a difference by working in the medical field. I am COVID-19 vaccinated and boosted as well as flu vaccinated. I have also received all my other vaccines. My experience with children goes back to when I first started babysitting at the age of 12. I have worked at day cares where I have experience with children from infancy to 15 years of age. I am comfortable with all age groups. I do not smoke. I love animals as well so pets are never an issue! I have experience house sitting/petsitting as well. I have been house sitting/petsitting since I was 13 years old. It first started out with watching my neighbor’s house and cats while they were gone and progressed to dog sitting/cat sitting at other people’s houses. I am very responsible and respectful of other people's homes. I clean up after myself and make sure the house looks like it did when I arrived.

“Our 5 1/2yr old son gets so excited when Kassie is coming over. This was our first babysitter and it has been a great experience. We have booked her multiple times now. She's kind and keeps him active playing games. Also, she loves pets, bonus for our cat! The communication has been great as well. ”

Booked by 6 families in Dublin, CA

Hi my name is Olue and i am an amazing mother of 2 boys who are 9 and 13yr. I am a college graduate. I enjoy working with children and have been watching kids for over 10yrs. I am experienced in Nanny shares and 1 child care also. My responsibilities are to make sure that i work as a team with parents, feeding, teaching, nurturing, Loving and creating a safe space for a child but most importantly being gentle. Fully vaccinated including Tdap. I already work for a Family part time and have been going 9 months now. I honestly am a great nanny who doesn’t mind helping around the house so parents can come home and spend time with their child. I am a 100% ok with families who have pets.

“Olue was simply amazing. She has a warm, calm presence that both of my boys responded to immediately. My two-year-old is very attached to me, and while he needed a few minutes to warm up, he quickly felt comfortable and connected with Olue — which says so much about her natural ability with children. She was engaging and attentive, met my son exactly where he was, and followed his lead based on his interests and energy level. I felt completely at ease leaving him in her care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, and genuinely wonderful with kids.”
