Hi! My name is Haley and I graduated from Stanford in 2024 with a B.S. in Product Design and was a D1 athlete on the field hockey team. I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember (10+ years) - I love kids and really enjoy helping them learn & grow! I have experience with children of all ages, love sports, and have tons of energy!! <3
Hi, families! I’m 27 and I have eight years of nanny experience. I’ve worked mostly with infants and toddlers, but I have plenty of experience with children of all ages. I’m reliable, patient, and a strong communicator. I’m currently looking for ocasional babysitting jobs, weekdays I’m available in the evenings and I’m mostly available on weekends - feel free to reach out!
Hello! I hope you're doing well. I'm a mother of three (ages 15, 16, and 18), with lots of experience caring for multiple children. I'm patient, kind, organized, and proactive. I'm fluent in Spanish and English, CPR and First Aid certified, and I have a valid driver's license, a clean record, and my own car. I love keeping babies and kids engaged with activities like reading, arts and crafts, and trips to the park or library. I also like to help out around the house during downtime with tidying, laundry, and other chores. I'm available Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 9:00 a. m, as I work with another family in Portola Valley afterward. During that time, I can help with bathing, laundry, bottles, organizing, and drop-offs/pick-ups if needed. References are available upon request! Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat by phone or video call. Thank you so much for your time!

I love kids and I’m currently taking care of two girls of 5 and 8. I have experience with kids from 3 months old to 10 years old. I like playing with them, reading books, or do arts and craft. I even teached how to crochet to my kids. I consider myself as an artsy and crafty person and I enjoy sharing that with kids. I’m fluent in english but my native lenguage is spanish. Cheers, Belén (:
“Belen is the best. She cares for our two girls (5,3) and they adore her. She plays fun, creative games with the girls. We could not function without her. Belen is the greatest!!”
Hi there! I'm Valentina a current speech pathology assistant at a special education school in Redwood City. I enjoy going on runs, spending time with my dog and trying new recipes.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
