Tiffany $23 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been working with kids since 2005, and caring for families has always felt like second nature to me. Over the years I’ve been a live-in nanny and a house manager, so I’m very comfortable juggling busy schedules, helping with homework, keeping the home organized, and making sure kids feel safe and supported. I’ve worked with children of all ages and I really enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and what makes them feel happy and understood. I’m reliable, calm, and confident handling whatever the day brings. My goal is always to make life easier for parents while creating a warm, fun environment for their kids.

Kaylee $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kaylee, and I recently graduated from an esthetician program. I currently work at a gym and have over two years of experience working in daycare, caring for children from 4 months to 13 years old. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages and creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and happy to help with playtime, meals, homework, and daily routines. Outside of work, I have three Border Collies and love taking them to the park and on walks. I also love dog care and house sitting, and I am very comfortable caring for pets while their families are away. I also have personal experience caring for my grandparents, but my main focus is providing dependable child care and pet care.

Dorothy $23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Atwood, CA

I have experience with children from 0-10 years old, and I am currently CPR certified. I also love caring for animals (mainly dogs and cats) I'm looking for a part-time job while I attend graduate school starting in August of this year. I currently hold a Bachelors degree in sociology, which helps me better understand the behavior of children and the developmental process. I tutor a little part-time in Science and English writing, and don't mind running a few errands from time to time. I love dogs and children, and have two each.

Priscilla $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m Priscilla, a fellow mom just looking to support another family with night care/date nights, occasional care, or short-term babysitting. The little one I was caring for recently started daycare, so I’m hoping to connect with a new family who needs someone loving, patient, and reliable. Additionally, they still contact me asking to care for baby if needed. As a nursing student, my schedule can be a little unique, but I’m usually up studying until 2–3 AM anyway, so evenings and nights work beautifully for me! (My school schedule is completely online until April 12th) A little about me 😊 • I’m 20 and a mama to my sweet, adventurous almost 19 month old son • I’m the oldest of 5 (ages 3–15), so caring for kids is second nature • One of my siblings has William syndrome and on the spectrum, so I’m familiar with adapting care, gentle communication, and meeting children exactly where they are • I love walks, reading, hands-on play, arts & crafts, and trying new recipes when I get the chance I’m a low-to-no-screen caregiver — we rarely use screens at home, so I absolutely understand and respect families who want engaging, present, and mindful care. I’m happy to keep little ones entertained with play, imagination, and comfort without devices. I’m also very comfortable following sleep routines and bedtime schedules, and can keep your nighttime rhythm consistent while you enjoy your well deserved time away. I can provide three references with families I’ve worked with and 2 of my personal family reference letters if needed !! 😊

Soumaya $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi Mom and Dads! You can call me Maya. I recently moved back to California after living in Honolulu and am excited to connect with wonderful families in the area! I have accumulated now 10 years of babysitting/nannying experience as I’ve babysat toddlers to teens. I truly enjoy being around children and getting to know their unique personalities as I come from a big family. 🤗 I’m very attentive at my job and love interacting with children while being creative and making time spent being responsible, fun, nurturing and patient. I make every child I babysit a priority and insure reliability. I hope to meet you soon!

"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!"
