April $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is April and I am currently nursing student at Nightingale College! In addition, I have experience with child development education from Sacramento State University. My love for children has grown exponentially as I learned to care for my cousin with a cleft lip and palate condition since she was an infant. She has taught me the importance of patience and understanding through passionate child care. Overall, I would love to have the opportunity to work with your child, as I aspire to become a NICU nurse one day. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. Thank you for considering me to become your child's nanny!

Shaaravi $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Shaaravi but you can call me Sasha :) . I currently work in real estate, but I’ve also spent years caring for children, from babysitting at ages 16-18 to working as an au pair (live in nanny) in France and Italy. I’m looking to make some extra income while doing something I truly enjoy: helping kids feel safe, supported, and happy. As an au pair, I cared for children of different ages, managing school routines, playtime, meals, and household responsibilities. That experience taught me patience, flexibility, and how to balance fun with structure. I’d love the chance to support your family and create a safe, positive environment for your children. Looking forward to connecting!

Yolani $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am YOLANI; I have a bachelor's degree in education. I worked in my country as a primary school teacher for ten years and my first language is Spanish. I am currently working in a preschool from Monday to Friday, I have had this job for over four years. I love this job since every day is a different adventure that can be experienced with each child. By doing this work I think that instead of teaching them something, they teach me and make me remember many things from my childhood. I hope you give me the opportunity to meet you.

Maria $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Maria, a highly experienced and compassionate caregiver with a strong background in education and specialized child care. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Preparation for Teaching and currently work as a substitute teacher, supporting students across a wide range of ages, abilities, and learning environments. I previously worked as a Preschool Teacher at La Petite Academy, where I was responsible for maintaining a safe, structured, and nurturing classroom. I supported daily routines, led age-appropriate learning activities, assisted with meals and transitions, and used positive behavior guidance to support social and emotional development. I understand how important consistency, patience, and clear communication are for young children. In addition, I have extensive experience working with children with disabilities and medical needs. I have supported children with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, visual impairments, seizure disorders, behavioral challenges, and children who require tube feeding. Through my work in special education settings, I developed a calm, attentive, and safety-focused approach to care. I am comfortable following care plans, recognizing signs of distress, and working closely with families to meet each child’s individual needs. Beyond my education background, I have spent several years sailing internationally as part of a small crew, traveling over 15,000 nautical miles. This experience strengthened my sense of responsibility, safety awareness, problem-solving skills, and ability to remain calm in high-pressure situations. These qualities directly support my work with children and families. Families describe me as dependable, nurturing, and confident. I take pride in being someone parents can trust with their children’s safety, well-being, and daily care. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful connections with children and supporting families with reliable, thoughtful care.
