Find a babysitter in Emeryville, CA

I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate, 22 years old, with a B.A. in English Literature, and I still live in Berkeley. I’ve grown up in a care-oriented, family-centered household with three younger brothers, and helping to raise them has been a central part of my life. From feeding, dressing, and managing bedtime routines to helping with homework and keeping them entertained, I’ve learned firsthand how to balance responsibility, patience, and fun. That lifelong experience, combined with babysitting for other families, has given me a strong foundation in childcare and a deep appreciation for creating nurturing, safe, and engaging environments for children of all ages. I love being active and outdoors, so I enjoy hiking, running, and exploring new spaces with kids, as well as quiet time reading or telling stories to spark creativity and imagination. Growing up in a busy, caring household has taught me empathy, adaptability, and problem-solving. These are skills that I bring to every family or parent that I work with. I’m comfortable helping with light household tasks, meal prep, homework, and daily routines while keeping children happy, safe, and stimulated. I’m happy to babysit anywhere in the Bay Area and am excited to bring my experience, energy, and love of caregiving to new families. I take pride in building trust with both parents and children and creating a positive, supportive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel cared for.

I am a college student currently attending UC Berkeley. I worked as an education facilitator for the Lawrence Hall of Science for a year and a half. I worked with kids of all ages, and it has been the best job that I have had. My main role was to educate kids about various subjects in STEM. But my role was also to make all the children feel safe, comfortable, and included. Seeing smiles on kids' faces or knowing that I taught them something brings me such joy. Working with children has been such an amazing experience, because even though I would teach them about science, I think kids can teach adults a lot of things, too. I am also available to take care of dogs. I've had dogs my whole life, and I absolutely love them. Dogs are so much fun because they require playing and running, which encourages me to also be active.

Hi! I have a lot of babysitting experience, paid and unpaid, from babysitting younger siblings and cousins to neighbors and family friends. I used to tutor kids at the Mathnasium and can defintely help with homework. I’ve also been a court appointed special advocate for a foster child, so kids with challenges do not scare me. I’ve also house-sat and taken care of all types of pets (friendly pets, haha). I graduated from UC Berkeley 2 years ago and am now working as a legal assistant and saving up while I apply to law school. And I looove arts and crafts🎨🧵🧶 I think that about covers it, but let me know if you have any more questions (:

Hello, My name is Ken, and I’m a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter with a strong sense of responsibility. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and I truly enjoy helping them learn, play, and grow in a safe and supportive environment. I always come prepared with age-appropriate activities to keep children engaged and happy. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, reading stories, or supervising outdoor play, I take my role seriously and treat each child with patience and kindness. Families appreciate my punctuality, clear communication, and calm approach, even when things get a little chaotic. I understand the trust parents place in a babysitter, and I work hard to earn and keep that trust every time. I'm available for part-time, occasional, or evening babysitting .
