Marcelina $18 per hour for 1 child

Hey there! I’m a reliable and caregiver with a passion for supporting children of all backgrounds, including those who are neurodivergent or have more complex emotional and behavioral needs. I bring a calm, patient presence and focus on building trust and consistency for every child with whom I work. As a trans woman, I value creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where every child feels respected, understood, and free to express themselves. I’m especially experienced working with K–12 children who may have challenging temperaments, sensory sensitivities, or unique communication styles.

Mya $20 per hour for 1 child

Hey there! A little bit about me, my name is Mya and I aspire to be a positive and kind presence in people’s lives. I try to appreciate the little things, enjoy every moment and remind others to do the same! I am currently a lifeguard at my hometown pool and am trained in CPR and first aid protocols. I’ve also worked as a gymnastics coach which taught me how to control but also appeal to children in various ways! I love animals and own two cats of my own, I also have owned dogs in the past. I can clean and run errands just say the word. I’d love a chance to prove my value! Thank you!

Booked by 18 families in Pittsburg, CA

HI! My name is Mariane, 34 years old. I have my own car and don’t mind driving to the job, max 30 miles distance. I have experience with all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I'm fun and communicative, the kind of babysitter that really sits and play with the kids. I like to find fun activities, like arts&crafts, coloring, or some learning activity. I can help with homework, pick up from school, drive to activities, watch them for a date night or just give you a little break when need it (we all need it right?). I also know how and love to swim! If you have any questions, please feel free to text me, I'm looking forward to work with you!
