Hi, future families! 😊 New on this app! My name is Chloe, and I’m 21 years old. I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who would love the opportunity to help make your life a little easier—whether you need a babysitter, house sitter, or an extra helping hand! I have over 3 years of experience working as a Special Needs Paraeducator and even my own personal experience where my brother has severe autism. I’ve developed lots of patience, responsibility, and experience caring for children with different needs. I’m also a licensed CNA and am just one class away from starting my journey toward becoming a Registered Nurse! 🩺 I’m excited to build relationships with families, earn your trust, and gain more experience in babysitting and house sitting. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your children and home are in caring and responsible hands. ā¤ļø I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and see how I can help! 😊

Based in Sac šŸ“ Travel often to the Bay Area Hello there my name is Alia! I am a 29 year old communications professional. My hobbies include reading, writing, practicing my Spanish, bike riding, soccer, arts and crafts, and finding new movies to watch! I have over 4 years experience of sitting ranging from 6 months- to age 17. I have no problem coming to you. My favorite part about babysitting is getting to spend time and have fun with the amazing children. I believe every child is unique and different and it’s so fun getting to know all of them and thinking of new activities. I develop close friendships with parents and children so that we become in a way one big family. I strongly prefer cash, Zelle or Venmo. I do charge for the entire time booked, even if you arrive home earlier than the agreed end time. LATE POLICY: If you think you are going to be late or would like to stay out later, please send me a text or phone call an hour beforehand.

I am an HR Professional with a bachelor’s degree in Business yet part of me wishes I had an educational background to work with children. So babysitting gives me the opportunity to do what I enjoy the most! I was an urbansitter nanny all throughout college in San Francisco as my one and only job for 5 years. I cared for children of all ages, from 3 months - 14 years old. My long term families were for children ages 1-5 and 11-14. In addition to my own work experience, I grew up at home with a family childcare, thus I am comfortable being around up to 8 children at once since my mother is a licensed childcare provider. I currently babysit a 4 year old once a week (Jan 2024 - today) My favorite part about babysitting is teaching children through play. It’s rewarding to see a child grow and see how much they learn along the way. I have a tight schedule but if I am available to babysit on weekends and weekday evenings. I have a car and I am also fluent in Spanish.
