Hi my name is Gabriela, I’m currently in school and in my third year at Sacramento State! I'm studying Communication Sciences and Disorders to hopefully become a Pediatric Speech Therapist/Audiologist. I have always loved working with kids! My mom has been a babysitter for 15+ years and I've gained everything I know from her as she is the best babysitter ever! I've worked in a couple places with kids such as helping with date nights, working consistently with families, and at the daycare at the Sac State Campus. There I would work with all different age groups such as 8-month-olds all the way to 4-year-olds. I would mostly spend my time in the classroom with the 8mo-2-year-olds and I loved it so much! I got to create engaging activities for the kids to expand their mental capabilities and I also free d them and changed their diapers. I am a very quick learner and am very open minded. My schedule is very flexible on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at the moment due to school but I'd be willing to help any family in need of a babysitter!
I’m a stay-at-home mom to two wonderful girls (ages 5 and 7) and have years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’m CPR certified, reliable, and responsible. My background includes previous nanny work and time in gym childcare, where I learned to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment. I love staying active, doing crafts, reading, and helping kids learn and play in meaningful ways.

Hi! I’m June, I am a caring and reliable nanny with over 6 years of paid experience supporting infants and young children. I currently work part-time for a family and am looking to add another position to my schedule. I’m calm, patient, and great at creating a safe, warm environment for little ones. I enjoy helping with routines, naps, feeding, playtime, and keeping things running smoothly for parents. I’m available Saturdays through Tuesdays and open to date nights, part-time care, and regular weekly schedules.

"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!"
