Hello, My name is Lauryn, I’m 26 years old, and I have been a babysitter/nanny for over 8 years now working with children of all ages! I am passionate about helping kids learn and grow while making sure to still have fun along the way. I graduated from Sonoma State University in 2020 with my Bachelor’s in Business Management. I also just completed my Multiple Subject Credential to become an elementary school teacher! My current rate is $22 per hour for one child that is *above* 3 years of age and $25 per hour for one child that is *under* 3 years of age. I have plenty of references that I can provide for you as well. A majority of my experience comes from making local connections in my community. I can't wait to meet you and your family! - Lauryn

I have been a preschool teacher for 5 years and it's my dream job. Working with children is the most rewarding thing I've ever done. In addition to my experience, I have 30 units of college coursework in Early Childhood Education. I've worked with both adults and children with learning and behavioral differences and am kind, compassionate, and nurturing. As a mom of two teenagers, I know how hard it is to trust someone to take care of your children. I have excellent references from 4 different preschools including a nature school, Waldorf preschool, and the Multicultural Children's Center here in Santa Rosa. I am currently a teacher at a large family farm and daycare. I am comfortable taking care of animals. Cats, dogs, farm animals...I love them all! In my spare time, I love to get outside and hike and swim. I'm an avid concert/theater goer as well. I hope to hear from you!

"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!"
