My name is Tristan and I am a Cal graduate and have worked closely with children in a classroom setting and as a babysitter and part-time nanny. I love developing a strong, trusting relationship with children. I am currently a part-time nanny for a 3-month old and am in charge of bottle feedings, contact naps, tummy time, and other age-appropriate enrichment. I was a part-time nanny for a 10 year old from October 2018 to May 2019, and for a 2 year old from August 2021 to September 2022, and two families of 3 (ages 4-9) in Berkeley in 2023 and 2024. I've previously worked at a Children's Discovery Museum as an educator, assisting a wide range of children in developing a deeper understanding of the arts and sciences. I have experience performing reading intervention and mentoring third- and fifth-grade students at Emerson Elementary in Berkeley. I pride myself on my reliability, kindness, understanding, and my ability to connect with children! I love promoting curiosity, encouraging self-expression, and role modeling positive interactions with others/the environment. I am committed to supporting your family and implementing practices that best meet your needs. I look forward to getting to know you and your family!

Hello prospective families! My name is Chelsea. I pride myself on being dependable, responsible, and honest. I am looking for date night or occasional jobs that can fit into my schedule. I am a graduate of the University of Virginia (B.A. & M.P.P) and University of Michigan (MBA) and will start my full time job at the end of summer. For over four years I worked with children from newborn through four-year-olds in a children's ministry in addition to routinely babysitting for families including daycare pick-up/drop-off. I am CPR certified and completed a refresher course. As a preteen, I began watching children as a mother's morning helper and continued babysitting throughout graduate school. My background is in the arts, cheering, and dance. The summer before leaving for college I worked as a performing arts instructor teaching children between the ages of 4 to 14. I enjoy spending time with kids and finding creative activities to fill the time. If you are looking for an enthusiastic and responsible sitter, please reach out to me. *As I drive my car to jobs, please let me know what the available parking in your area is when you request a booking **Please note, I am unable to accept bookings if anyone in the household has been sick within the last 48 hours. For occasional babysitting jobs, I do charge for an in-person interview. Additionally, due to a peanut allergy, I am unable to prepare or feed children food with peanuts. I do charge a 50% fee for cancellations without a 24 hours notice. Thank you for your consideration.

Caring for children and families is something I came to through my own upbringing. Something that showed me a deep appreciation for the importance of emotional support and attunement at every stage of life. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Human Development from UC Davis, and am currently in my third year of a doctoral program in Clinical Psychology. Through my training, I have had the privilege of working alongside children and families, bringing both a developmental understanding and genuine warmth to every interaction My experience with children began early and has continued consistently through both family and community caregiving. These experiences shaped an approach grounded in close observation, thoughtful engagement, and a steady presence. When I am being a caretaker, I am attentive not only to their safety, but to how they think, feel, and make sense of the world around them. I engage with them intentionally, encouraging curiosity, communication, and emotional awareness through everyday interactions rather than formal instruction. My practicum training has deepened my ability to meet children where they are developmentally while providing structure, warmth, and reliability. I approach caregiving as a meaningful responsibility that requires preparation, discernment, and genuine care. I welcome the opportunity to support a family seeking a caregiver who brings both professional training and a quietly thoughtful approach to caretaking.
