Yasmine $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have several years of experience working with kids and currently work at an after-school program with children from TK through 6th grade. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children, helping with homework, planning activities, preparing snacks/meals, and keeping kids entertained and on a routine. I’m CPR/BLS certified and also have a background in healthcare. I’m patient, responsible, outgoing, and genuinely enjoy being around kids. I’m also comfortable with pets, driving to activities or school, and helping out with light household tasks when needed. I’d love to find a family I can build a comfortable and reliable relationship with!

Gabriela $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Pittsburg, CA

Hi Families! My name is Gaby, and I’m currently offering occasional nanny/babysitting and mother’s helper support for families who need reliable, experienced extra hands. I am a stay-at-home mom and a professional nanny with over 8 years of dedicated childcare experience, specializing in infants and toddlers. Caring for children has always been a true passion of mine, and I’ve had the privilege of building long-term relationships with families who value consistency, trust, and quality care. My caregiving style is Montessori-inspired, with a strong focus on independence, creativity, and emotional security. I prioritize little to no screen time and believe in hands-on, engaging activities that support motor development, language growth, and confidence-building. Our time together often includes sensory play, music, outdoor exploration, practical life skills, and age-appropriate learning experiences. As a mom myself, I deeply understand how important it is to feel fully comfortable with the person caring for your child. I strive to create a calm, nurturing, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I am currently available for occasional care, date nights, backup care, and mother’s helper support. I work independently and am committed to providing focused, attentive care tailored to your family’s needs. I look forward to connecting and learning how I can support your family’s needs. Warmly, Gaby

Hi! My name is Andrea, and I’m a responsible, caring, and energetic caregiver offering child care and household support. I have experience working with children through camp programs, where I cared for toddlers, and as a swim instructor teaching kids from ages 1 up to 15. I’ve worked with a wide range of ages and abilities, focusing on safety, patience, and building confidence. I’m comfortable leading activities, providing one-on-one care, and creating a fun, supportive environment. I’m dependable, attentive, and truly enjoy helping kids feel safe, happy, and cared for.

"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!"
