I grew up with 3 sisters and 2 brothers and we had dogs and cats. I played sports and first babysat at the age of 13. I love the beach and body surfing, I love to sing to the little ones and teach them songs, I like to have fun reading books, eating food, playing with just about anything (just a glass of ice water is entertainment for 30 minutes with a 15 month old-- yes, ice.. first it's solid and then magic-it disappears). I love to problem solve... or use the tool of distraction. And I do believe that "to every task that must be done there is an element of fun". I work part-time at the Ferry Building Book Passage and have been there for two and a half years, it's a great environment and I enjoy working with the public. There a lot of kids who come in on the weekends and I have fun getting to know them and what they like to read. I have been taking care of a year and a half boy for spurts this past year and it's been so much fun. We would go to the Main Library storytime for an outting and it was a real treasure. It is such a pleasure to work with kids, as they are so much in to the moment.
“Thank you so much for your help! Would definitely recommend Lorraine, she was wonderful.”

“It was a delight to have Juana come and babysit my 2 young boys. She was punctual, washed her hands, and right away started playing with my 4 year old boy. She asked good clarifying questions (ie screen time limits, allergies). At the end of the shift, she had close rapport with both boys. ”
Hi - My name is Ximena, I’m from Mexico and I'm currently a nutritionist. I am offering child care, dog care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since 8 years ago. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. Truly passionate about working with children. I do have a DL and a clean record (happy to share it) and a CPR certified. I've built strong, loving relationships with the families I've worked with and always create a calm, engaging, and safe environment for every child. Happy to work with families with pets. I'd love to connect and learn more about your family's needs. Thank you for your consideration 😊
Hi! My name is Erin and I'm the oldest of three kids and a recent(ish) college grad. I'm offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have experience working with babies and toddlers in a childcare setting, elementary school-age children in a sleep-away camp setting, and high schoolers in a residential dorm setting. I have a compassionate and collaborative approach to conflict resolution that prioritizes sensitivity and empathy to anyone I'm interacting with. I've led children in arts and crafts, games, and intentional conversations, which would translate well into taking children to the playground, on walks, or helping with homework. My pet sitting experience so far as been with cats and dogs (check in visits, feeding, walks, and clean up), but I'm definitely open to working with other pets. For household services, I can cook, clean, do laundry, and lightly organize.

"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!"
