Hi! I’m Olivia :) I’m currently attending the Santa Rosa Junior College and have been working with kids for many years now. I absolutely love being around children and have experience with all ages, from newborns (3 months old), babies to toddlers and older kids. I’ve been babysitting since I was pretty young, and over the years I’ve helped with pretty much everything… meals, naps, crafts, outings, driving to activities, and just keeping kids busy and having fun! I love being outside, going on walks and little adventures, reading, baking, doing crafts, and finding fun things to do together. I’m also happy to help out around the house with things like cleaning, cooking, organizing, or running errands when needed. I’m a huge animal lover too, so pets are never a problem! I love both cats and dogs and am not allergic to any animals. Overall, I’m pretty easygoing, caring, and love being able to become someone a family and their kids feel comfortable with. :)

“Olivia was flexible with my start time and very responsible. She was a great communicator, asked good questions, and I felt safe leaving my 5 month old with her for 8 hours!”

Hello! Ive been working with children my entire working life. I began teaching swimming lessons to infants through pre-teens, babysitting infants-toddlers, and working as a high school mentor before going to college. I got a degree in Spanish literature and language in WA state (University of Puget Sound) and taught middle and high school in Andorra as a Fulbright fellow (borders Spain and France). After returning to the US, I went to Stanford to get my Masters in Education and worked with students for seven years across the Bay Area. I now work as a preschool/infant Montessori style educator/nanny, mentor, tutor, and educational consultant, in addition to pursuing my art in fusion dance and vocal performance. I love children, believe it is a life mission to help them feel understood and empowered, and have been described as quite the "Mary Poppins" advice, lullabies, and giant bag included :-) **Update: While I am currently looking for part-time and/or tutoring help, I am also available for occasional babysitting on the weekends/week nights!

Azure $28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azure and I am a Nanny from beautiful Sonoma County. With over five years of experience caring for children—primarily ages 4 and under—and three years supporting elderly clients, I bring a calm, compassionate presence to every family I work with. For the past three years, I’ve been a full-time nanny for one family, supporting their daughter’s growth from toddlerhood into preschool. My responsibilities have included meal prep, potty training, school pickup, homework help, and light housekeeping, providing dependable, all-around support for busy parents. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum and bring a patient, individualized approach to each child’s unique needs. My background in elderly care, including hospice and dementia support, has deepened my empathy and taught me the importance of making people feel seen, heard, and valued—principles I bring into every aspect of childcare. I’m dedicated, dependable, and passionate about helping children feel safe, confident, and cared for in their everyday routines.

Booked by 3 families in Duncans Mills, CA

Hi, my name is Estefany, and I am currently a second year student going to third year at Sonoma State University. I am offering child care, senior care, and help with household errands. I have several years of babysitting experience caring for children from ages 2 to 17, and I am comfortable working with different age groups and personalities. I am patient, responsible, energetic, and always make communication a priority by asking questions, confirming instructions, and being dependable and on time. I can help with driving, errands, cleaning, and creating a safe and positive environment for families. I also had some experience with senior care and am always open to learning and gaining new experience. I had a valid Driver’s license and pride myself on being a good listener and someone families can trust. If my availability does not completely fit your schedule, I am always open to communicating and trying to make things work.

“Estefany was such a pleasure! Our kids loved her and she truly made a very special birthday celebration possible for us to attend. We can’t thank her enough for being so wonderful. Whenever we need someone we can trust to safely watch our kids, she is who we are going to call! Anyone who hires her to watch their kids are lucky to have found her. ”

Lizbeth $23 per hour for 1 child

I'd describe my personality as a patient, responsible, good listener, love being around kids, loving, and caring I like working with kids because I love having young kids around especially when they are at the age that they still enjoy playing and learning. I'm looking for a job that will be flexible and also a job that I enjoy doing especially during school and I would want to have more job experience with working with children for the future. I started working with kids when I started my college year. I've had the opportunity to work with children the past 2 years and it's been an amazing experience. In my spare time, I like to go to the gym. I usually like to hangout with my friends as well and I like going to my brother's soccer game especially on the weekends One thing you should know about me is I am a very responsible and kind person. My skills include being patient, make sure they are well attended, making sure they feel safe and comfortable
