Hi! My name is Ingrid, and I currently work in healthcare. In my free time, I enjoy helping families by providing dependable and caring childcare. I have several years of experience caring for children, including my nieces and nephews, whom I absolutely adore! I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment for children. I can also help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing light meals, and keeping things tidy. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and help care for your little ones!
“Ingrid was great with our 16 month old. She was patient and observant with him, and he took to her right away. She always asked questions and made sure we were comfortable with what she was doing, and was a good communicator throughout. Despite working with us for the first time, her time with us went by really smoothly and she was very adaptable. ”
Hi families! My name is Thayane and I bring over 8 years of experience caring for children of all ages — from newborns to school-aged kids — including children with special needs such as autism and PDA. I’ve worked with several wonderful families, supporting children’s emotional and physical development with patience, kindness, and genuine care. Over the years, I’ve become confident in handling all aspects of child care: feeding, naps, diapering, soothing, playtime, bedtime routines, and helping children feel safe and loved. I also have extensive experience driving children to school, parks, playdates, and enrichment classes — always prioritizing safety and fun. I’m happy to assist with child-related chores, meal prep, and I’m also very comfortable with date nights and occasional evening care. I’m flexible, reliable, and families often describe me as calm, warm, respectful, and attentive to each child’s unique needs and personality. My experience working with children with special needs has made me especially patient and intuitive. I’m always focused on creating a nurturing, structured, and joyful environment where children can thrive. Looking forward to connecting with your family!
“I highly recommend Thayane! She has been caring for our now 10-month-old son for the past few months, and we couldn't be happier. Thayane is incredibly loving and fully engaged with him throughout the day. She creates age-appropriate activities and playtime, while also managing his meals and nap times with ease. Her dependability, kindness and attentiveness have made her a wonderful addition to our family, and we feel so lucky to have her in our care team!”
Hi! I’m Kailiti and I am a preschool teacher! I’m also a recent grad of Stanford University, where I studied linguistics and education. I’m offering childcare and household services. Working with children brings me a lot or joy and I’ve been in childcare and education jobs for the past eight years, including as a science teacher in schools, a summer camp counselor, and of course as a babysitter! I am comfortable working with children ages 2mo-12yrs and I also have experience working with children with high support needs, including children with autism and neurodevelopmental disabilities. I love to facilitate imaginary play and outdoor activities as well as arts and crafts, and I am also happy to help with homework! I also cook, clean, do laundry, and can run errands. If needed, I can drive for dropoffs/pickups. I am also a nationally registered Emergency Medical Technician!

"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!"
