Hi, my name is Jiahui, but I go by Kelly. I’m a recent college graduate and am open to any babysitting opportunities. I have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I grew up with two younger siblings and also worked as a seasonal babysitter at a private childcare. Duties involved meal prepping, feeding, changing diapers, potty training, managing routines, and leading fun indoor and outdoor activities. I have also worked as a K-5 tutor, supporting groups of up to 10 students in reading, writing, and math, as well as organizing science and art activities. I’m happy to assist with any homework help as well. Currently, I volunteer at the farmers market where I lead and facilitate group field trips that encourage children to build a positive relationship with food and explore their curiosities surrounding food. Feel free to reach out if this seems like a good fit! I’d be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have!

Kelly was lovely, on time, creative and great with our son! We will be hiring her regularly!

Booked by 3 families in Piedmont, CA

Hi, My name is Tierra, I’m looking for part time and weekend work. I’m available early mornings and evenings. I have experience with children from newborn to elementary school age. I’m responsible and reliable. In 2022 I was a nanny for siblings a two year old boy and a 9 month old girl for a couple of months before she was old enough to start school. I was also a babysitter for a pair of sisters 3 years old and 2 years old. I work as a third grade after school teacher. I also used to volunteer at a preschool. I’m ok with doing light housekeeping if needed (dishes, laundry, sweeping, vacuuming, and wiping down counters/toys)

Tierra has cared for my son several times this past summer, from 16 months to 19 months old. She is kind, patient, and playful with him. It's an added benefit that she works as a teacher. I will definitely hire Tierra again.

Booked by 9 families in Piedmont, CA

Hi- my name is Danielle! I am a public school teacher of 4 years (3rd grade for 3, 2nd grade for 1). I’m looking to make some extra money on the side with house sitting, pet sitting, babysitting, or tutoring. I have a bachelors degree in Childhood Development, i have worked in a preschool as the head teacher and also in an after-school program with elementary aged kiddos, and also spent two years as a full time nanny to twins (3 yrs). I’m mostly looking for evening care jobs or weekends when my schedule permits. I have experience with tutoring elementary school aged kids as well as experience with special needs kids. I have a lot of pet sitting experience and have owned dogs/cats my entire life. I don’t have a ton of free time during weekdays but would be willing to work out check ins or walks if necessary. House sitting would be ideal for my schedule. I have housesat numerous times for family and friends in the past and would feel very comfortable if pets were there too!

Danielle was great, super friendly and took care of our daughter. She did not shy away from toddler behaviors and jumped right in!

Hi! I'm Monica — a bilingual caregiver, former preschool and elementary school teacher with over 10 years of experience working with young children. I have a degree in Human Development with a concentration in Child Development through CSU East Bay University and I’m certified in CPR and First Aid. I also have a clear background and driving record. My passion lies in supporting the early years of development, especially for children ages 0–6. I’ve spent years in the classroom nurturing young minds, and I now bring that same structure, creativity, and care into the home. I offer in-home babysitting, homework help, and healthy meal prep — always creating a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for each child. I'm fluent in both Spanish and English, and I love incorporating language development and learning through play into everyday routines. If you're looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and experienced, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Monica for 2 years, where we collaborated in the field of early childhood education. During this time, she demonstrated herself to be a dedicated, responsible professional with a strong commitment to the holistic development of young children. Ms. Monica stood out for her ability to create a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment, thoughtfully adapting activities to meet the individual needs of each child. Her pedagogical approach, combined with patience, empathy, and creativity, contributed significantly to the social, emotional, and cognitive development of her students. Her strengths include age-appropriate lesson planning, positive classroom management, effective communication with families, and strong collaboration with fellow educators. In addition to her professional skills, Ms. Monica is a reliable, well-organized individual with a consistently positive attitude—essential qualities for working in early childhood education. I highly recommend Ms. Monica for any role within the field of child development, particularly as she begins her new professional journey of opening her own child care program.
