Booked by 3 families in Lagunitas, CA

My name is Hanane! I’ve been babysitting for more than 15years and been working at a daycare since 2013, I worked in a French preschool for two years. I’m very experienced with babies and kids of all ages, I’m energetic, respectful, punctual, reliable and great communication, I do have a lot of knowledge and help with setting up routine, sleep training, reading and help with other household tasks, i have a CPR certificate and child care safety classes, my hobbies are music, traveling, reading,

Hanane arrived on time and we spoke for a good 40 minutes. She's warm and engaging and I am already hiring her for ongoing care. She seems like a great blend of maternal care (she's got three of her own) and efficient Nanny (she checked in about routines etc). I look forward to getting to know her better.

Hi,my name is Prudence. I'm a dedicated college student with over 5 years of experience caring for children of various ages. I thoroughly enjoy engaging with them through activities like park outings, playtime, and exploring their interests. My passion lies in nurturing young minds and creating meaningful connections. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, run errands and clean.

Prudence has taken care of our now 6 year old on and off for 5+ years. She is a very fun, caring and thoughtful care giver and my daughter loved engaging with her. She is a great communicator and easy to work with.

Booked by 9 families in Lagunitas, CA

Hi! I’m a nurse based in San Francisco with 14+ years of babysitting and nannying experience. I currently work at a pediatric urgent care on the weekends. I’m looking for local families who may need occasional help for date nights, full Time/part time, weekends, or just a few hours to recharge! I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers and have been with my current family since their twins were just 3 months old (they’re now three!). I’m also happy to assist with dog-sitting, light organizing, and transportation to activities like sports practices, tutoring sessions, or even trips to the zoo! I’ve also assisted in supervising during birthday parties (ie. Extra set of eyes on the pool, and surroundings) ad well as events to keep the children entertained while still being in the vicinity of parents. I have my own reliable car for transportation needs. I am CPR-certified (infant, child, and adult), First Aid certified, PALS and ACLS certified, and also trained as a doula. I have one year of experience working in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), so I’m very comfortable handling a range of childcare needs with a calm, safety-first approach. My schedule varies slightly with my current roles, so flexibility (with notice) is important. I love building lasting relationships with families and would be happy to share my availability, experience, and references upon request. The best way to connect with me is by phone, as that’s where I communicate and rebooking with all my families. Looking forward to hearing from you! ** I typically communicate through the app but respond better via text as a lot of notifications get missed and easier to rebook** Thank You, Saoirse
