Message me if you may have any questions or one-time jobs. Hello! My name is Vanessa. I am born and raised in the Bay Area. I currently have a dog of my own and grew up with two dogs. My first job was as an assistant teacher at preschools and elementary schools, while I was going to community college. Eventually, I graduated from the University of California, San Diego with a Bachelors's in Communications and a Theatre minor. I love performing and am seeking a job that can give me some of the flexibility for that (mostly for the evenings). I also have a drivers license and have my COVID vaccines. Hope to talk soon!

Vanessa arrived on time and had great communication during her afternoon with my son. He said he had so much fun playing and we would love to book Vanessa again! Thanks Vanessa!

Hello, my name is Chloe! I have always been passionate about working with kids, and have done so professionally for the past couple years. I started very young watching my younger brother and his friends, which turned into two years of preschool teaching and a year of substitute teaching. Working with kids has brought me so much joy, and I'm always in awe by all that I learn from the different children I work with! I have 3 years of classroom experience, 1 year of nannying experience, and 7 years of babysitting. I'm an avid reader and am a huge supporter of outdoor exploration. I can also provide housesitting / petsitting services. Thanks so much!

I’m a 22-year-old female nursing student with a strong background in caregiving and child support. I’m CPR certified and have several years of hands-on experience babysitting my younger siblings and cousins, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and nurturing. I’ve also tutored children in the past and taken education-related classes toward a minor, which helped me understand how to engage kids in fun and age-appropriate ways, even though I don’t have official certification for it. I have my own car and a valid driver’s license, which makes me reliable and flexible with transportation needs. I’m responsible, empathetic, and genuinely enjoy caring for others — whether that’s kids, seniors, or helping out around the house. I bring a calm, warm energy to any home I work in, and I’m committed to creating a safe and positive environment for everyone I care for.

I'm vaccinated (1st and 2nd dose) Hello! My name is Kuba, I am 27 years old and I'm originally from Poland. I have a college degree in social work and special education. I'm a paraprofessional at Francis Scott Key Elementary and pre-kindergarten teacher at Polish-American Educational committee of San Francisco. I am looking for a child care job in the SF/Bay Area. My experience includes: - Au Pair exchange program in California and Maryland - 2 years - Children Camp Leader/Director for International Children Camp located in Poland - 7 years Organized activities - Dorm director - Program volunteer/tutor - Home for special needs children located in my hometown (Poland) - 3 years I planned social activities and set educational goals.

My youngest has a new bestie apparently. Which is probably all that needs to be said. But also, on time, very professional, very focused on understanding what was needed for each of them. Instant addition to my "favorites" list.

"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!"
