Hello, my name is Layla, Im 28, and I have a 1-year-old little boy at home. I currently nanny for a family a few days a week, but am looking to make an extra income with the occasional date nights, or out of towners looking for sitters. I have plenty of references and years of experience with different families of various ages. My son is the highlight of my life and I would treat your kids no less. I could make a positive impact on somebody's family, and can also provide reliable pet care if needed. I am very animal friendly. My qualifications include CPR, and First Aid certified. Please feel free to message me for any further questions.
Hi, my name is Rikki and I am currently a part time nanny for a wonderful 8 month old boy. I have always loved children! I started helping in the church children’s room when I was 12 then started babysitting when I was 13. I worked at. Day care with all ages from infant up to 5 years old in my early 20s before going into the medical field. Approximately 3 years ago I came back to working with children as a mommy’s helper then nanny/babysitter. I am cpr certified, love animals and I am a very outgoing person. I am currently seeking part time work or as needed for date nights!
Hi parents! My name is Stephanie. I have over 10 years of experience under my belt as a nanny/babysitter. I have a deep love for children and strongly believe in gentle parenting where patience, empathy, and respectful communication guide every interaction. I believe every child deserves the freedom to be their authentic self. I strive to support children by encouraging creativity, individuality, and emotional expression. My overall goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where children feel heard, confident, and are free to grow into their unique personalities. I am a mother of 2 boys - ages 2 and 12, so I am comfortable with any age! I am a huge lover of animals, arts and crafts, and sports!
With 3+ years of childcare experience, I am all about having fun while being safe and comfortable! For the last 2 almost 3 years I have worked as a camp counselor. I love adventures, doing crafts and even playing fun games to keep the spirits high and mind learning. I am First Aid and CPR certified, as safety is my #1. I can offer light cleaning, running errands, homework help and love pets. I have my own car so rides are always available. Feel free to reach out if you need any additional information!
A bit about me: I am a preschool teacher at Good Shepherd Lutheran School in Novato, and have been working there for 4 years now. I work daily with children ages 2-4. I am graduating this spring with an AS degree in Child and Family Studies from Napa Valley College, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. Prior to teaching, I also have several years of experience babysitting children ages 0-10, including babysitting for individual families, and providing childcare for large groups of children at events. I love working with children and am fascinated by the process of their development! Their little minds are absolutely intriguing. I love to play and experiment alongside them, and my approach to discipline and teaching is very much based in authoritative parenting style (aka gentle parenting) and play-based learning. If you have any questions, please ask! I know how important it is to leave your little ones with someone you can trust!

"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!"
