Hi, I'm Paloma and I love working with/spending time with kids. I have my CPR certification and around 4 years of experience babysitting. During the summer I am a kids camp counselor in Orinda and during the year I babysit for different families. I am friendly, patient, and caring. I can babysit for up to 3 kids at a time. I can make simple meals and help out around the house if necessary. I am happy to work with families who have dogs and cats. I graduated high school last year and am currently taking a gap year so I have lots of extra free time to babysit.

Hi! My name is Jupleen and I'm a recent grad from Georgetown where I studied International Affairs. I have previous experience babysitting mostly elementary school age kids and older. I have also been an overnight camp counselor for a few summers where I was in charge of kids aged 7-12. I love being active and doing creative activities with kids. I sometimes bring my Nintendo switch and kids love to play Just Dance! Depending on the age, I also love to bake with kids, and I am also open to help with tutoring, homework, or cooking. I played cello and tennis up until high school if that is of interest as well!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
