KamrynAyn $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Emeryville, CA

Hello! My name is KamrynAyn (Kam) and I have over 10 years of experience in childcare. In high school I started my first summer nanny job, outside of normal babysitting. In college I babysat regularly for friends & family. I was an au pair in London for a lovely family, with two girls 3-5. It was the best year of my life. As I have began a professional career in biotech, I don’t have as much time to work as a nanny, but I miss spending time with kids. I am currently looking to provide occasional or part time care for the right family!

Tsedal $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a naturally sympathetic, kind, and caring person with a genuine love for children. I have helped care for my nephews since they were babies, which gave me hands on experience in nurturing and supporting and engaging with young children. And I help in Sunday school at church. I find real joy in creating a safe, positive, and encouraging environment where kids feel supported and loved.

"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!"
