Gwen $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Gwen, and I'm genuinely passionate about working with children. As an early childhood education professional, I absolutely love creating fun, safe, and nurturing spaces where kids can truly thrive. My experience as a TK/Kinder classroom leader and an assistant teacher at a preschool has given me hands-on skills in engaging young learners and supporting their growth. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your little ones are in capable hands. I'm also currently studying Early Childhood Studies at Sonoma State University, which means I'm always learning new ways to support children's development and make our time together enriching and engaging. I'm excited for the opportunity to build positive relationships with both your children and your family!

Booked by 161 families in Vacaville, CA

My passion and calling is caring for children. The safety and well being of my charges are paramount to me. I have 30 + years of experience working with children (including but not limited to children with various special needs) in Brazil, Germany, India, Hawaii and now here in CA. Tending to each child's needs with regard to his/her unique personality and developmental stages is my main goal, while still having fun in the process! Families that have experienced my care services describe me as reliable, creative, accommodating, patient, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, loving, and firm when needed (see reviews). Our time together is filled with adventures, age-appropriate activities, reading, imaginative play, walks in nature, music, Yoga, dance, and lots of love. My background is in Speech and Language Therapy, Montessori, and Infant/ Child Development. I am a mother of a 27 year-old son (graduated from UC Berkeley /Computer Science) and a 24 year-old daughter. (UC Santa Cruz /CS). Current CPR/First Aid. Trust Line registered, clean driving record and I own a reliable car. I do not smoke, use drugs, or drink alcohol. During the time your child is under my care, my phone usage is limited to communicate with you. I am fully present, engaging and giving the children my undivided attention. Rates vary, depending on distance and job description. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Nadia was amazing with our son. She was warm, punctual, thorough, and communicative. Our son loved her!

Booked by 18 families in Vacaville, 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!

Booked by 4 families in Vacaville, CA

I am a private school teachers aide for special needs children and have worked with kids aged 6 to 18 in this field. Before being a teacher, I was a respite care provider for special needs children. Overall, I have been in the field professionally for 4 years, but have done nannying since I was 15, for children as young as 3 months! (I am now 23 years old) Before this field, I worked in elderly assisted living. I had a variety of pets growing up and am comfortable caring for animals as well! I am passionate, energetic, and think quick on my feet. I can care for multiple children or pets at a time, and I do not tire easily. I also know a bit of conversational American Sign Language!

Sita was great! On time, very attentive, and great communication. Went above and beyond our expectations!
