Dynasty $21 per hour for 1 child

I’m currently in college studying English Literature and children development. I’ll be obtaining my teacher’s credentials. Not only am I going to school to teach and understand the development of a child, I’ve grown up being the youngest in a family of 13. I’ve babysat my sibling’s kids all the time, and it’s helped me a lot with my education. I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat, so I have a bit experience taking care of pets as well. A little about me, I love reading, writing poetry, crocheting and dancing! I’m very easy going and love talking and meeting new people. I’m also reliable ;) I hope to become a reoccurring nanny!

I’m a friendly, responsible, and caring person with experience working with children, families, and pets. I’m originally from Peru and have been living in the United States for several years. I enjoy helping others, staying active, and creating a safe and positive environment. I offer childcare, babysitting, pet care, light meal preparation, homework help, and help with daily activities. I’m responsible, dependable, and happy to adapt to each family’s needs. I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, young children, and school-age children. I understand that each age group has different needs, and I always focus on safety, patience, and making children feel comfortable. enjoy playing games, doing arts and crafts, reading, dancing, listening to music, going for walks, and doing age-appropriate activities that keep children active and engaged. I can help with homework, prepare simple and healthy meals, and keep children entertained with creative activities. I also enjoy dancing and fitness, so l love incorporating movement and music into activities with children. I have food safety training/certification and Zumba instructor training. I'm also committed to learning and following each family's safety and care instructions. I have experience helping and caring for seniors with patience, kindness, and respect. I also worked through the IHSS (In-Home Supportive Services) program in San Francisco, where I provided support with daily activities and non-medical needs. I can help with cooking, light housekeeping, errands, grocery shopping, transportation, companionship, and daily activities. I enjoy helping people and making their day easier. I'm patient, caring, and I enjoy listening and keeping people company. I'm comfortable caring for pets and understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping their space clean. I'm responsible and always follow the owner's instructions carefully.

“Karina took care of my siblings like no one else, as she not only created a safe space for them but also suggested a series of recreational activities that my siblings continue to practice today, such as drawing, painting, and playing soccer. Additionally, she always ensured that my siblings were comfortable, well-fed, and surrounded by lots of love. I highly recommend Karina's caregiving!”

Hello, my name is Rana! I’m 24 years old and I recently graduated from pharmacy school. I hope to keep up with babysitting as I prepare for my board exams and navigate my main career. I have prior experience babysitting for kids ages 3-13. I love spending time with kids and I’m very extroverted, so I know how to keep them entertained! I’m dedicated to making sure they have a fun, safe, and healthy time. I can assist with their studies, arts/ crafts, cleaning, playtime, light cooking, and preparing for bedtime. I also have two 2 cats and prior cat-sitting experience as well. My schedule is flexible so I’m mostly available anytime throughout the week with prior notice. I’m also CPR certified, can administer injections/ help with giving medications if needed, and am mental health first aid certified as well!

Karina $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Karina and I’m currently going to school for cosmetology! I’m offering childcare services. I love being a babysitter, I’ve watched kids from the age range of 4-10. I used to babysit for a family watching 2 kids at a time for about 2 years! I would help clean up after the kids, make sure they did homework if they had any, do some coloring and outdoor activities if they wanted to, make sure they took a bath before bedtime and provided a safe environment in the comfort of their own home!

"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!"
