Booked by 1 family in Burlingame, CA

Hi! My name is Patricia. I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with 8 years of full-time childcare experience. I have cared for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I truly enjoy supporting their growth and development in a safe and nurturing environment. I have extensive experience with infants, including bottle feeding, nap routines, diaper changes, and maintaining a consistent schedule. I am also comfortable managing multiple children, helping with homework, and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, and I value building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I have worked long-term with families, which has allowed me to provide stability and continuity of care. I am based in Burlingame and have access to a car, making me flexible and dependable for commuting. I am currently looking for occasional opportunities, especially on weekends.

Patricia was easy to coordinate with, arrived on time and was great with our son. Would definitely recommend.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ana Luiza, and I am 19 years old. I am currently at college majoring in Medical Assisting. I have been working with children for a couple of years and currently work at the Boys & Girls Club, where I help supervise children, assist with homework, organize educational and recreational activities, and create a safe, positive environment for kids of different ages. In addition to my current position, I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and have extensive experience caring for children, especially newborns, infants, toddlers, and children up to 4 years old. I am comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, nap schedules, playtime, and bedtime routines. I am patient, responsible, caring, and energetic. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. My experience working with families and in childcare settings has taught me the importance of communication, reliability, and creating a fun and nurturing environment for every child. I am fluent in Portuguese and English and also I speak a little bit of Spanish, which allows me to communicate with diverse families and even introduce children to a bilingual environment if desired. I take pride in being dependable, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I look forward to supporting families and providing loving, high-quality care for their children.

Ana Luiza has looked after my son Anthony since he was just two months old; he loves her. She is very affectionate and caring. She takes excellent care of Anthony—whenever the daycare is closed for holidays, she is always there to look after him. She is trustworthy; you can confidently leave your children in her care, knowing she will look after them exceptionally well.

Booked by 6 families in Burlingame, CA

Hi my name is Lyka! I live in the Bay Area and I’m also a current second year biology major at UC Riverside. I currently work at the Little Gym of Millbrae a children’s physical development and enrichment center that offers gymnastics based classes, camps, and birthday parties for kids ranging from 4 months to 12 years old. I’ve been working at the Little Gym for over 3 years since junior year of high school. Looking to find a side job to help pay the cost for my college tuition so I thought babysitting would best fit since I have working experience with kids in different ranges up till 12!

Lyka is fantastic! Our little guy, 8 months old, absolutely adores her. We’ve been working with her throughout the summer. She is super thoughtful and communicative, asks great questions when she is caring for him and provides thorough updates of her time with him. She’s super warm and positive, and just a joy to be around. We are so grateful we found her! Big thank you, Lyka. We’re already excited for next time.

Ysabella Burlingame
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Bella. I work Monday- Thursday and am looking for a babysitting job for Fridays. I am the oldest of 3 and started babysitting when I was 15. I have 10+ years of experience with ages 4 months and up. I have 7 yrs of experience working with children with Downs Syndrome as well. I am comfortable with kids going through periods of being fussy or having a hard time being away from their parents. I like to keep them engaged with whatever fits their developmental stage whether that be reading books, singing, going to the park, or playing games around the house. If the kids have chores or responsibilities around the house I will make sure they get done if needed. I am CRP and first aid certified and have had experience with medical emergencies. Those moments showed me the importance of being trained in life saving procedures. I am proud to say in those moments my training helped me stay calm and take appropriate action. I have a Honda Civic and don’t mind taking kids places or running errands. I am open to light house keeping like dishes, laundry, and cooking. I grew up in Petaluma and am very close with my family. In my free time I enjoy exploring the city, hiking, and hanging out with friends.
