Hi, my name is Ryann! At this time, I am only looking for occasional jobs as I cannot commit to a regularly scheduled babysitting job. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in criminal justice studies from San Francisco State University, and I am planning to go back to school to obtain a master's degree sometime in the next few years. I am up-to-date on all my vaccinations and boosters (including COVID-19), and I am trained in CPR/AED/First Aid, however my certification has lapsed. While in college, I took three courses specifically related to child and adolescent psychology and development. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old, and have worked with children of various ages over the years (newborns to preteens) as a babysitter, nanny, and volunteer camp counselor. When weather permits, I like to take the kids outside, for walks or to play at the park. However, I am just as happy staying inside, playing games, doing arts and crafts, or reading to the kids. I can also speak conversational Spanish. In my spare time, I like to read, bake, and make jewelry. Regarding COVID-19: I am happy to provide proof of full vaccination, including booster shots. I ask that all household members of families that I work with receive the vaccine and boosters when possible, unless medically unable. I expect mutual transparency; I cannot babysit when someone in the household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and expect to be told as soon as possible so that the job can be canceled. Likewise, I will inform all families if I or someone in my household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and will cancel the job with as much notice as possible. I will wear a mask while babysitting if preferred, just let me know! *Please note, for liability reasons, I will not drive children in my personal vehicle; however, I am willing to drive children in a parent or guardian’s vehicle, provided that their insurance policy covers me. Similarly, I am also willing to transport children via public transportation, taxi, or Uber/Lyft.*

I am currently a student at Santa Rosa Junior College. I love playing with kids. Coming from a big family I have taken care of all my cousins. I am caring and responsible. For more information you can contact me with questions.

Eridian was excellent with our 3.5 year old. We stayed in Russian River for a wedding and the two of them had so much. I would definitely use Eridian again anytime I’m in the area.

Hi, my name is Estefany, and I am currently a second year student going to third year at Sonoma State University. I am offering child care, senior care, and help with household errands. I have several years of babysitting experience caring for children from ages 2 to 17, and I am comfortable working with different age groups and personalities. I am patient, responsible, energetic, and always make communication a priority by asking questions, confirming instructions, and being dependable and on time. I can help with driving, errands, cleaning, and creating a safe and positive environment for families. I also had some experience with senior care and am always open to learning and gaining new experience. I had a valid Driver’s license and pride myself on being a good listener and someone families can trust. If my availability does not completely fit your schedule, I am always open to communicating and trying to make things work.

I am a 28 year-old kids ski instructor and have just completed my 3rd year of instructing. I am down in Sonoma County for my 6th wine harvest. I have been babysitting since I was about 16, and had been a long term nanny twice. I am happy to provide references if you would like to learn more about the high-quality, fun and engaging care I provide. In my free time, I love to spend time outside skiing, hiking, camping, or at the beach. I teach kids 3-12 daily, but have babysat an nannied infants through teens. I am excited to meet you and your family, and to be a positive role model in your children's lives! I also am a pet sitter part-time if you are ever interested in pet care as well.

Grace is communicative, responsible and patient.
