I am a 28 year-old kids ski instructor and have just completed my 3rd year of instructing. I am down in Sonoma County for my 6th wine harvest. I have been babysitting since I was about 16, and had been a long term nanny twice. I am happy to provide references if you would like to learn more about the high-quality, fun and engaging care I provide. In my free time, I love to spend time outside skiing, hiking, camping, or at the beach. I teach kids 3-12 daily, but have babysat an nannied infants through teens. I am excited to meet you and your family, and to be a positive role model in your children's lives! I also am a pet sitter part-time if you are ever interested in pet care as well.

I love all children and all animals. I don’t mind doing housework like cleaning up in the kitchen either. I’m comfortable cooking for your children as well. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 :)

Naomi $28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Naomi and I’ve been a caregiver for about 10years! I’ve worked with all ages from 3 weeks old to 7 years old and part-time 11 year old! I’ve also worked with twins and special needs children (on the spectrum) Each and every child I’ve work with is very special and dear to my heart which has spark my interest in pursuing a career in this line of work! Currently in school for Early Childhood Education! Being able to help out families with different children has helped me understand that each and every child is unique and has different sort of needs! And as a nanny that provides care my job is to make sure each child I come in contact with has a memorable upbringing and their needs catered to! My friends and family may describe me as funny and bubbly and most children I work with describe me as scary cat😂 I describe myself as the baby Whisperer 😂 I’m very appreciative of each and every opportunity I get to work with families and I take pride in what I do!

Chessie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Chessie! I hold a B.A. in Early Childhood Education from Sonoma State University and currently work full-time as a Pre-K teacher at a wonderful preschool in Marin. I’m looking for part-time and occasional babysitting opportunities to earn a little extra as I prepare for my wedding this March. Born and raised in Petaluma, I developed my passion for early childhood education at a young age. I began babysitting for friends and neighbors as a young teen and started working as a summer camp counselor at 14. While in college, I worked in an after-school program supporting children in grades K–5. For the past six years, I’ve been a dedicated Pre-K teacher, gaining extensive hands-on experience supporting children’s growth, learning, and social-emotional development. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have over 10 years of experience caring for children and families in my community. I pride myself on being nurturing, dependable, and engaging, and I love creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for every child in my care.
