Booked by 23 families in Lodi, CA

Based in Sac 📍 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. If not notified, an overtime charge will be applied to double the time you are late. CANCELLATION POLICY: No fee for cancellation up to 48 hours notice. Under 48 hours notice will be charged a 50% cancellation fee. Under 24 hour notice will be charged full fee.

She was great! She was great with 2 kids, and she was so helpful around the house. We’re looking forward to more opportunities to have her support us.

Hello- My name is Michelle. I am currently a live-in nanny for a family in Alamo. I am looking for extra babysitting jobs on Friday nights (after 6:00 p.m.,) anytime on Saturday and an occasional Sunday (as my current job will permit.) I will always keep my calendar current. The children I care for are 13, 11 and 8 years old. I have been a nanny for this family for over twelve years. I have 18+ years of childcare experience plus I am the oldest of 5 children so I have cared for my nieces and nephews as well. I have excellent references that I would be willing to provide you with. I love caring for children of all ages. I enjoy doing all different kinds of things with the children. I am willing to travel anywhere in the Bay Area. I am fully vaccinated and received all boosters for COVID. I have excellent references that I would be willing to provide to you at your request. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hopefully hearing from you soon.

Walnut Creek
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 372 families in Lodi, CA

Hello! My name is Amary, and I’m 38 years old. I’m the mother of two adorable boys and have 10 years of babysitting experience. During my time as a student in France, I worked as a babysitter, and when I moved to the US, I decided to continue in this field. I enjoy playing various games with the kids and am open to any activity that the parents prefer. Occasionally, I try to teach them French, which I speak fluently. I’m available for occasional babysitting jobs and only accept jobs that are at least 4 hours long. I’m comfortable with dogs, but I’m not comfortable with cats because I’ve been attacked by one in the past. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Best regards, Amary

Booked by 24 families in Lodi, CA

Hey! I’m Heaven and I’m currently a substitute teacher and graduated at Sacramento State University majoring in child development. I have completed over 40 units for child development and early childhood education- one class where I was a teachers assistant in a wonderful first grade classroom. I have experience being a teacher in 2 pre schools and now do sub/before/after school care across districts and grades (k-8) I have always loved caring for children and I have two younger, step brothers who have greatly influenced my career choice. I have taken care of children ages 6 weeks to 15 years old. I love animals so having a pet, or even many, is a bonus to me! * I am CPR certified * - proof of certification available upon request- - I have a license / reliable transportation

Heaven was kind, communicative, confident. She left the house tidier than she found it, which was not expected but much appreciated! She even left some beautiful drawings for us.
