I have over six years of babysitting experience and have worked for two years at elementary schools as a paraeducator. I have experience working with children of all ages and enjoy planning activities, playing, and staying actively engaged with kids. I am very hands-on, patient, and always willing to play and interact as much as possible.

Esmeralda $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Esmeralda, a credentialed Special Education Teacher with a Master’s degree in Special Education and a background in Psychology. I have several years of experience working with young children, including children with autism and other developmental and learning needs. I currently teach 1st grade and love creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children can be themselves. I’m experienced with a wide range of communication and behavioral needs, including children who use AAC or are minimally verbal. I’m also comfortable supporting routines, transitions, toileting, mealtimes, play, and age appropriate learning activities. I’m patient, dependable, nurturing, and energetic. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through arts and crafts, games, reading, outdoor activities, sensory play, and educational activities tailored to their interests. As an educator, I’m also happy to help with homework, early literacy, math, and other academic skills when needed. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident about who is caring for their child, so I prioritize safety, communication, and following each family’s routines and preferences. I’m especially passionate about working with children with special needs, but I enjoy caring for children of all abilities. I’m primarily looking for occasional babysitting opportunities that fit around my teaching schedule, such as evenings, weekends, date nights, and school breaks. I look forward to meeting your family and providing your little ones with attentive, compassionate, and fun care!

Booked by 2 families in Alviso, CA

Hi, my name is Lauren. I have three years of experience working with children (both formal and informal). I have done pickup/drop off for grade school kids, taken them to the library, park, and extra curricular activities. I prioritize creating fun, engaging, and playful environments while taking care of children. I’m currently working full time, during the school year, as a Behavior Technician at Los Altos School District; I have worked in ABA therapy and alongside children with ASD for a little over three years now. I graduated from SJSU in May 2025 with my B.A. in Behavioral Science. If you’d like to see if I have availability that isn’t listed on my calendar, please feel free to reach out and ask! Also open to date night hours/weekends. Look forward to meeting you & your kiddos! :)

“Lauren has been a fantastic caregiver for our girls (4,8) as we adjust to new surroundings in Palo Alto and a new role for me as a student.”

Lauren $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a dependable and engaging caregiver with extensive hands-on experience caring for young children. I’m a mom of two children, so I’m familiar with daily routines, transitions, and the needs of infants, preschool and early elementary-aged kids. I also have experience providing care for teens and tweens. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through art projects, books, imaginative play, building activities, and outdoor time, while also maintaining a calm and fun environment. I have prior babysitting experience and bring a patient and attentive approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable managing meals, playtime, and bedtime routines, and I’m also pet-friendly with many years of experience caring for cats. I’m currently seeking occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and am happy to support families who need a reliable, caring sitter.

"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!"
