Nanny in the Bay Area since 2022, with extensive experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers. Certified in CPR and currently training in the Montessori method, I provide safe, creative care tailored to each child, featuring special experiences like temporary tattoos, giant bubble fun, slime workshops, and bracelet-making kits (with prior parental consent and authorization). Each interaction is thoughtfully planned to inspire, educate, and create memorable moments. I am dedicated to providing a high-quality experience at every opportunity.

***Update: Please message me for availability- the calendar on here is rarely updated. Thank you! :-) ************************************************************** Hello! I'm a Bay Area native and I was a childcare provider and nanny for over 10 years in San Francisco before I began my teaching certification program. I really enjoy working with families and still keep in close contact with the last family I worked with. In the past, I've also worked for the Y.M.C.A. as a coach and teacher for children in their camp program. I love doing arts and crafts activities, and going on outside adventures with kids to parks, museums (California Academy of Sciences is a great one!), and libraries. Most of my past jobs working with families were referrals from other families I worked with, so this is my first time using an online site to apply for positions. My certifications are in Special Education EC-12th grade, E.S.L. EC-12th grade, English Language Arts and Reading 7th-12th grade, and General Education EC-6th grade. While working on my credential I completed internship hours in an elementary school classroom working with children on the Autism Spectrum. My experience in the internship was so inspiring that I decided to make Special Education a focus in teaching. I'm taking this semester off from teaching so I’m mostly tutoring, but also available for occasional babysitting. I really enjoy babysitting because it gives me the opportunity to be creative, no matter what age the child is, with play and learning activities. As an Educator, I am passionate about incorporating play into education to make learning accessible for every child. My schedule isn’t usually updated on the app, so please feel free to send me a message inquiring about a date. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you! Sincerely, Reese

My name is Lauren and I have been babysitting and providing childcare for local families for over twenty years. I am happy, energetic, upbeat and creative and I enjoy working with children of all ages! I'm also certified in infant, child and adult CPR. 💚 In conjunction with providing childcare to families in my area, I have been working in the medical field for the last 15 years and love interacting with all the folks I meet in Marin County. I currently work full time in a veterinary practice and have experience working in pediatric medicine, as well as adult and pediatric dentistry. I have been TrustLine certified since April of 2007, which includes finger printing and a FBI background check. I live in San Anselmo with my family and my sweet Chihuahua, have my own reliable vehicle and and am a non-smoker. I have wonderful references and a perfect driving record. I’m responsible yet playful, attentive, patient, open-minded, loving and cheerful. I pride myself on caring for your family the same way I care for my own! I am fully vaccinated and boostered against COVID, and take health and wellness very seriously as well. I’m also happy to wear a mask around your family if that is your preference. I look forward to connecting with you and helping you with your childcare and house hold assistance needs!

Hi. I grew up in Marin and just moved back after living in Boston for ten years. I have worked with children in many different capacities since high school. I have worked as a camp counselor, babysitter, and teacher in a non classroom setting. Most recently I worked at the Museum of Science in Boston as well as an attendant in the child care room in a gym. One of the hardest parts of moving back to California is leaving the families I had been babysitting for years. I am comfortable working with all age groups. I have worked with infants as young as nine days old to teens, though most of my work has been with children between three months and ten years. My experience has taught me that nothing is more exhilarating, rewarding, or exhausting then working with children. I have found that a good sense of humor and open communication with parents is essential. Having people trust me to look after their child/children is a great responsibility that I take seriously. A bit about me. I am an avid reader. Like many people, I love to travel. I am currently on a quest to visit as many national parks as I can - 54 thus far. I am always happiest when I can get outside though I must stay vigilant about not getting burned. I am a vegetarian who loves to bake with varying levels of success. I look forward to meeting and learning more about you.
