Booked by 2 families in Brisbane, CA

Hello! I am Ana . I am currently a recent graduate at the University of California, Berkeley. I am home in Los Ángeles for the summer. I love working with children. I have had many younger cousins in my family who I connect with very well and have taken care of from time to time. I am a very dependable and trustworthy person as well as respectful. I follow instruction and learn quickly. I know I do not have much professional experience but I when I have babysat and nannied, the families have been very pleased. I hope to be able to connect with more people and help to take some stresses of your shoulders knowing your kids are being well looked after. I also offer household help and pet care. I have grown up with pets all my life, as well as helping to clean the house and would be more than willing to help. I am a very flexible worker and am willing to be there for any family I work with; if you unexpectedly need time to work more hours I will be there. I am also a creative and active person and will make sure to help keep your kids active if that is your wish.

Sofia was wonderful with my son— super attentive and proactive. Would definitely hire again.

Denisse $35 per hour for 1 child

I am a warm, caring, and dependable nanny with over five years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they feel supported, understood, and encouraged to grow. I consider myself responsible, patient, organized, intuitive, and kind. While many people can watch children, I believe that building a genuine connection with them is what truly makes a difference. I focus on forming strong bonds based on trust, respect, and communication, and I always strive to make children feel comfortable and valued. I am attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality, and I take pride in being someone families can rely on. I love helping children learn, explore, and develop through play, creativity, and daily routines. My goal is always to support both children and parents by providing consistent, thoughtful, and high-quality care.

Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA

Hi, I'm Michelle! I've been working with young children for over 10 years, from summer camps, to babysitting, to working in preschools. I have two years of formal full-time teaching experience, plus many years of volunteer experience in Extended School Year programs for children with disabilities. I have also taught drama and musical theatre to young children. My first priority is making sure children feel safe and supported, and I look to strike a balance between fun activities, and calm moments to decompress. My background in preschool classroom environments helps me to stay calm in moments of transition, and has provided me many positive guidance tools to help children regulate their emotions and express their needs. I am also happy to provide pet care and household cleaning/assistance as needed. I'm originally from New York, grew up in New Jersey, and now live in San Francisco's beautiful Inner Richmond with my partner and our rambunctious dog, Maisy. I speak conversational Italian, love to sing, and have a degree in Theatre. In my spare time, I can be found outdoors with my dog, cooking, doing yoga, and playing ice hockey recreationally. I look forward to meeting you!

Michelle saved us with a last-minute booking when another sitter cancelled. She was very prompt, responsive, and clear with her communication. She was kind and engaging immediately with the kids (ages 2 & 4); very thoughtful and helpful. Did a great job keeping it fun while redirecting some rowdier kid energy. Would love to have her another time!

"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!"
