Hi every one my name is Franchesca, I am a sophomore in college. I grew up by the beach my whole life so I love anything revolving nature and outdoors. I am a very understanding individual when it comes to children, I love teaching my nieces new things such as cooking treats or painting. During the summer I often watch kids with my grandma as she has her own care taking company with age ranges from 2-8. I’m open to care taking for pets as well. If that’s taking them for walks feeding them growing I’m up for the challenge. As well as helping around the house as needed rather that be dishes or picking up laundry for the family I’m always open to discussing any and all help needed. I was in cheer all throughout highschool so I can understand life gets busy and if you need your child to be taken to school or sports related events I am available for taking them to that as well.
Hi! My name is Sarah, I’m 24 years old and currently serving in the U.S. Army. I have extensive experience caring for children of all ages — especially babies and toddlers — and a true passion for helping families. I’m also currently working on my A.S. in Criminal Justice, which has made me even more focused on safety, responsibility, and integrity. 👶 Experience: • 2 years as an Au Pair (2[removed]) with the same family, caring for 3 children (2 months, 1.5 years, and 2.5 years old). • Worked with multiple families, caring for children from newborn to 6 years old. • Assisted with household tasks: laundry, cooking, light cleaning, and driving children to activities. • Excellent references available upon request. 🎨 About Me: • Calm, responsible, punctual, and proactive. • Energetic — love arts & crafts, painting, drawing, and outdoor activities. • Fluent in two languages and currently learning a third. • Very organized and always create a safe, clean, and positive environment. • Always eager to help and learn new things. • Have my own reliable car and safe driving record. • Love kids and truly enjoy building meaningful connections with them. 🐾 A Little More About Me: • Animal lover — I have two dogs of my own (a Siberian Husky and a German Shepherd). • Grew up on a farm and love all animals. • Experience caring for elderly family members, having grown up helping and looking after my grandparents. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, loving, hardworking nanny who will care for your children as if they were my own (and maybe even love your pets too!), send me a message. I’d love to connect and see if we’re the right fit! 💛
Hello families! My name is Quianna, and I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with a natural love for helping others. I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for the people I care for. I have hands-on childcare experience from raising my two children and babysitting when they were younger. I am a mother of two young adult children and a proud grandmother to a 1-year-old granddaughter, so caring for children comes naturally to me. I enjoy helping with daily routines, playtime, learning activities, and making sure children feel safe and supported. I also have experience helping others with everyday tasks such as companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, and organization. I am patient, respectful, and enjoy being helpful wherever I’m needed. I am also working toward opening my own home daycare in 2027, because caring for children is something I am truly passionate about and plan to continue long-term. Families describe me as reliable, friendly, drama-free, and easy to communicate with. I’m trustworthy, organized, and take my responsibilities seriously. I treat every home with respect and care as if it were my own. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, compassionate care.
Hi, my name is Meriyah! I currently attend Sacramento City College, where I’m completing my prerequisites to pursue a nursing career. I’m the oldest of five kids and have years of hands-on childcare experience caring for my siblings from infancy through their current ages 6-12, including twins. I’m nurturing, patient, dependable, and a natural leader who creates a safe, loving, and fun environment. Growing up, I learned responsibility early through helping guide my younger siblings with daily routines, play, and care. I’m also a devoted pet owner to a senior German Shepherd and a young teacup Yorkie, so I’m very comfortable caring for both children and pets while supporting busy households. Thanks so much for considering me!
“Ms Meriyah G. was very friendly, warm, and personable. She took excellent care of my little one. My child expressed desire to have her back again as a sitter. She went out of her way to make my child feel special with a personalized activity. ”
I am a Kindergarten teacher in the Seattle area! Through my position, I have a clear background check. I am creative when it comes to keeping kids busy and engaged! I also pride myself in keeping a clean house and classroom, so I can help with cleaning as well. Cat care available as well!
