Chloe $26 per hour for 1 child

Fostering children's growth and development is my true passion. Over the past two years, I have embraced the opportunity to make a positive impact on young lives through dedicated caregiving. I am a patient, calm, and creative professional who genuinely enjoys engaging children through educational games, puzzles, and board games. I hold First Aid Training certification and am very comfortable enforcing your household rules to ensure consistency. Whether I am assisting with meal preparation, light housekeeping, or supervising swimming, I prioritize safety and fun. I value clear communication and will provide regular updates via text or in-person chats to keep you informed about your child's day. I am comfortable caring for up to three children across all age groups. I look forward to bringing my imaginative approach to your home and becoming a supportive, trusted partner in your family's daily life.

Paloma $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Paloma and I love working with/spending time with kids. I have my CPR certification and around 4 years of experience babysitting. During the summer I am a kids camp counselor in Orinda and during the year I babysit for different families. I am friendly, patient, and caring. I can babysit for up to 3 kids at a time. I can make simple meals and help out around the house if necessary. I am happy to work with families who have dogs and cats. I graduated high school last year and am currently taking a gap year so I have lots of extra free time to babysit.

Brooke $26 per hour for 1 child

I’m a reliable, warm and attentive 30-year-old based in the Berkeley area, currently transitioning from a career in communications into publishing and bookselling. While I get settled in the East Bay, I’m returning to nannying and babysitting, something I’ve loved and returned to throughout my life. I’ve been caring for children since my teenage years, with consistent experience babysitting and nannying over time. I’m most experienced with children ages 4–12, and I also have some hands-on experience with infants and toddlers. I love being part of a child’s day in a way that feels both fun and supportive, whether that’s imaginative play, helping with homework or creating a calm, engaging environment. I’m naturally organized, communicative and emotionally attuned. I pay close attention to what children need, physically and emotionally, and I do my best to create a space where they feel comfortable, understood and encouraged to be themselves. Families I’ve worked with would describe me as dependable, warm and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and someone kids feel at ease around. Beyond childcare, I’m happy to help keep things running smoothly at home! This can include light tidying, organizing, meal prep , etc.

"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!"
