Hello! My name is Olivia. I am 26 years old. I have 10 years experience with babysitting and nannying (the video on my profile is a few years old) for newborn babies-10 years old. Your child will be in a supervised, safe, and stable environment. I am responsible and reliable. I believe I could be a great fit for you, your children and your family. I am currently employed full time at a printing company in San Ramon but I would love to work as a full time nanny again. I am very flexible with my schedule, I can work more than 8hrs a day and sometimes on weekend too.
I bring to the role a solid background in child development and many years of professional nanny + teaching experience. I am a trained NCS and a pediatric sleep coach. My availability varies for occasional or regular care, whether it is for your newborn, toddler, after school support, or sleep training your baby. I am a reliable caregiver and responsible driver, CPR/ First Aid trained and vaccinated.
I’m Kat! I’m 22, studying music at Diablo Valley College. I’ve been working as a paid babysitter for four years (and unpaid for about sixteen!). Growing up with four siblings (and many more little cousins) means lots of helping out with the little ones, so I have lots of experience. I love working with kids, and have a couple cats at home—so I’m thrilled to help you!

“I highly recommend Simone as a caregiver. I have worked with Simone for the past year, and what I've consistently seen in her is her kindness and passion for bringing brightness to other people's days. She is raising a wonderful child and is excellent at helping others grow and develop into amazing human beings. She is thoughtful, dependable, and trustworthy. All families would be extremely fortunate to work with her.”

"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!"
