Natalie 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Inverness, CA

Hi! My name is Natalie and I am currently attending graduate school online. I adore kids and have over 10 years of childcare experience across nannying, daycare, mentoring youth in foster care, and as a Crisis Counselor at a mental health program for teens. I truly enjoy working with any age group, with the majority of my experience being with ages 2-17. My favorite thing about working with younger kids is getting to witness their imagination and creativity, and for older kids, I love to witness them come into their true identity as they find their place in the world. While my personal approach to childcare is inspired in part by the RIE technique (which emphasizes respect, emotional attunement, independence, and allowing children space for authentic exploration and unstructured play), I have had the opportunity to work with such diverse families that I tend to begin my approach by asking the specific family I am working with what their needs are and what they are wanting from me, as I have received very different answers to those questions over the years! However, I do value time outdoors, limited screen time, and self-directed play. In addition to childcare, I also have extensive experience caring for pets, including cats and dogs, and can hold other tasks such as household chores, errands, transportation, meal prep, homework help, and organization as needed. Families I have worked with often describe me as patient, dependable, communicative, and highly intuitive with children. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful long-term relationships with both kids and parents, and creating environments where children feel safe, respected, and free to be themselves!

Natalie kept my 2 kids (ages 2&4) entertained all day. She is warm, friendly, smart and caring. She brought some toys to immediately draw in my kids and distract from mom and dad leaving for the day. Highly recommend!

Booked by 4 families in Inverness, CA

Hi families! My name is Karolline, I’m 23 years old, and I’ve been working with children since I was 15 years old. I started babysitting because I wanted to earn my own money at a young age, but it quickly became something I truly love and enjoy doing. Over the years, I’ve cared for kids of different ages and personalities, and I love building genuine connections with them while creating a safe, fun, and loving environment. I’m very patient, responsible, energetic, and creative. I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, reading, games, baking, walks to the park, and imaginative play. I’m someone who enjoys being active, and since I love hiking and nature, I always encourage healthy, fun activities instead of too much screen time. Families would describe me as reliable, caring, organized, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children, and I always do my best to make both parents and kids feel comfortable and happy. I love being the babysitter that kids are excited to see again! I’m CPR certified, have my own reliable car, and maintain a clean driving record, so transportation and safety are never a concern. Whether your family needs occasional babysitting, date nights, after-school help, or a regular nanny, I’d love the opportunity to help make your life a little easier while making sure your kids are having fun and feeling cared for.

Karol was very attentive and caring, and got our three kids in bed before I can most nights! Would definitely recommend.

Booked by 1 family in Inverness, CA

Greetings, my name is Madisen. I am Currently a College Of Marin student majoring in Business. I recently took a class in Psychology for child and development and instantly fell in love with the class. I learned a lot when it comes to the development of children overtime as well as the importance of child psychology. My experience working with children began in 2017 when I decided to baby-sit many families kids in the Bay Area. I also worked at a daycare in 2020 for many months to gain more experience in taking care of kids from ages 4 to 13. I really enjoyed being in such a wonderful environment and working with kids. Furthermore, I am licensed and have a reliable car. I speak both English and Spanish fluently , I am also very responsible, patient and creative but best of all I love playing with children! A little bit about myself is that in my spare time I like to play soccer, bake, and spend time with my family. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. I look forward in hearing from you and getting to know your kiddos!

Kids had a great time with Madisen. Will for sure have her back.

Suseth $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a full-time college student completing my undergraduate degree for law school and a full-time daycare teacher with over 8 years of experience working with children through daycare, babysitting, volunteer work, and children’s ministry. For the past two years, I’ve worked at the YMCA, where I’ve received certifications in youth development, behavior management, safety, and CPR. I regularly lead groups of 30–50 children, create engaging activities, and support other staff to help ensure a safe, positive environment for every child. In addition to daycare, I have experience babysitting for families by preparing meals, helping with homework, transporting children to school and activities, maintaining routines, and creating fun, age-appropriate activities. I also teach Sunday School, where I plan lessons and activities for children. My top priority is creating a safe, caring environment where children feel supported and parents feel confident leaving their little ones in my care. Outside of work, I enjoy singing on my church’s worship team, practicing French (I’m bilingual in English and Spanish!), playing soccer and tennis, and getting creative with arts and crafts.

Hi, my name is Chessie! I hold a B.A. in Early Childhood Education from Sonoma State University and currently work full-time as a Pre-K teacher at a wonderful preschool in Marin. I’m looking for part-time and occasional babysitting opportunities to earn a little extra as I prepare for my wedding this March.
