Windsor
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Guerneville, CA

Hello- My name is Kyla. I am a young, energetic, and responsible 26-year old who loves to engage and play with kids and animals. I am currently looking for In between work as I was just laid off due to the economy! I’m looking for additional income in these hard times. I am offering senior, child care, transportation to/from school, or pet care. I am the oldest of three, with a ten year age gap between my siblings. I’ve spent many years caring for my siblings, as well as nannying for multiple families through my adolescence and my young adulthood. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition, I’ve provided drop off/pickup transportation for school, cooked meals, packed lunches, and taken children to recreational activities and social events. I am also an animal lover with a cat and dog. Growing up , my family fostered many animals which ignited my passion to rescue and care for all animals.

Kyla was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely funny — the kind of sitter who instantly puts both kids and parents at ease. She and my 7-year-old had a full day of fun: they completed a CrunchLabs kit, built a LEGO set, headed to the playground, and even came home to do over an hour of gooey science experiments. My child was thrilled from start to finish. Kyla is truly a gem, and we can’t wait to have her back!

Booked by 1 family in Guerneville, CA

Hiii! I’m Aubrey, some of my important qualifications I would say are responsible, caring, and reliable. I have a natural ability to connect with kids, keeping them engaged with fun, age-appropriate activities while also maintaining a safe environment. I am patient, attentive, and quick to respond in any situation, which helps me handle everything from everyday routines to challenges. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, or simply offering a warm and trustworthy presence, I’m dedicated to providing the best care possible. One of my experiences with children is that I have a 6 year old little sister, who I take care of all the time! I have changed diapers, made her dinner/lunch/breakfast, gave baths, taken her to school, packed lunches, put her to bed.

Petaluma
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Guerneville, CA

Hi families! My name is Karolline, I’m 23 years old, and I’ve been working with children since I was 15 years old. I started babysitting because I wanted to earn my own money at a young age, but it quickly became something I truly love and enjoy doing. Over the years, I’ve cared for kids of different ages and personalities, and I love building genuine connections with them while creating a safe, fun, and loving environment. I’m very patient, responsible, energetic, and creative. I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, reading, games, baking, walks to the park, and imaginative play. I’m someone who enjoys being active, and since I love hiking and nature, I always encourage healthy, fun activities instead of too much screen time. Families would describe me as reliable, caring, organized, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children, and I always do my best to make both parents and kids feel comfortable and happy. I love being the babysitter that kids are excited to see again! I’m CPR certified, have my own reliable car, and maintain a clean driving record, so transportation and safety are never a concern. Whether your family needs occasional babysitting, date nights, after-school help, or a regular nanny, I’d love the opportunity to help make your life a little easier while making sure your kids are having fun and feeling cared for.

Karol was very attentive and caring, and got our three kids in bed before I can most nights! Would definitely recommend.
