Agustina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Agustina, I’m 24 years old, and I have experience caring for children from 1.5 years old up to 10–11 years old. I really enjoy doing arts and crafts, as well as outdoor activities like hiking, going to the park, visiting playgrounds, and even exploring nature by observing insects. I also love doing puzzles and organizing fun activities like costume parties. I’m very passionate about cooking and enjoy creating new recipes and ideas—especially healthy ones.

Natalie $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Duncans Mills, CA

My name is Natalie, a bilingual (English and French and learning Spanish) Windsor High senior with over six years of childcare experience mentored by my nanny’s who are 30-year industry veteran. Caring for others is a gift of mine I have had since a young age! My experience in student government, serving on a school board and more makes me wise beyond my years and very responsible. As an active figure skater and dancer, I have plenty of energy to foster an environment that prioritizes outdoor play, fun quality engagement and creative crafts, though I am equally patient and calm when caring for infants and any child that needs it. I am a licensed driver and capable cook, happy to assist with school pickups, errands, and meal prep as well. As a lifelong pet owner, I have extensive experience with house and dog sitting, ensuring your furry friends and home are perfectly cared for. I also provide compassionate, non-medical senior care and am a dedicated, mature professional ready to support your household before I head to college this fall.

Aaliyah $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! My name is Aaliyah! :) I’m an undergraduate student at San Francisco State University working towards a degree in Interior Design. I’ve spent a good chunk of my life babysitting my youngest brother who was born with cerebral palsy — who is now 14 and I still take care of him when I can! So, I’m used to diaper changing, feeding and bathing. I’m creative at heart — I believe art is a beautiful part of development and self expression with children. So, I’m big on doing and introducing arts & crafts with children!!

Booked by 1 family in Duncans Mills, CA

Hi! I’m a nurturing and patient caregiver with 3–5 years of experience working with children, seniors, and households. I am also a nursing student, which means I bring a strong medical foundation and a deep understanding of health and safety to every family I work with. I hold a CPR certificate, so you can feel confident your loved ones are in capable and prepared hands. Whether it’s keeping kids engaged and safe, assisting seniors with daily needs, or maintaining a clean and organized home, I take pride in providing dependable, heartfelt care. Families can count on me to show up consistently and treat their loved ones with kindness and respect.

$33 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 6 families in Duncans Mills, CA

Dual-Service Childcare & Household Professional! My name is Carly, and I’m equally passionate about caring for children as I am about creating a well-run, tidy home. I’m a Bay Area native and a single mother by choice to a wonderful 4-year-old daughter. After many years working in tech, I’ve returned to my roots in hands-on care, with previous experience as both a nanny and lifeguard. Supporting families in their homes is where I truly thrive. As a parent, I understand firsthand the mental load that comes with keeping a household running; meals, laundry, groceries, activities, organization, errands, and making sure the kids are happy and engaged. My goal is to step in, anticipate needs, and take meaningful tasks off your plate so your home and family life can run a little more smoothly. I approach my work from a safety-first angle, while also being dependable, proactive, and organized. I have sound judgment and value transparent communication. I bring warmth and attentiveness to childcare, along with a practical, thoughtful approach to household support. I’m currently accepting childcare-only roles, household support roles, or a combination of both, depending on the child(s) schedule. I have limited availability for recurring commitments, with greater flexibility for ad-hoc or occasional support. I’m happy to share my rates, résumé, and references. I look forward to connecting with families who could use an extra set of capable, caring hands!

"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!"
