Hello! My name is Audrey, and I’m excited to get back into babysitting! I’m a Step Down ICU Nurse and also a first time mama to our sweet baby girl. ❤️ I’ve been a nurse for over two years and have several years of previous babysitting experience. I actually used this platform to babysit while I was in nursing school, but I had to step away after moving out of the Bay Area for work. Now that my family and I are officially back to the Bay Area, I’d love to start babysitting again! Since I currently work full-time as a nurse, I’m mainly looking for occasional babysitting opportunities such as date nights, errands, appointments, or when you just need an extra helping hand. My nursing schedule varies from week to week, so I don’t have set availability, but feel free to reach out with the dates and times you need and I’d be happy to see if I can fit them into my schedule. I am comfortable caring for all ages; babies, toddlers, school aged kids.
Hi parents! I’ve been in United States since 2019. I came as an au pair and now I’m a college student. All this time I had the pleasure of taking care of kids from different ages: 8 months to 12 years. With the kids I like to read books, paint, play, take them to parks or different places if the parent is comfortable. I’m a person that is very patient, calm, respectful and trustworthy.
“Karen was very friendly and professional, our daughter really enjoyed her! We would definitely hire her again. ”
My name is Karina, 38. I am Psychologist since December 2009 and I used to work with kids since 2006 when I started helping in a day care as a psychology's student, in my home country. I also babysitting for many families during my student time to pay for it. I am looking for occasional extra jobs as I am already working for two amazing families. I drive my own car, I have a California Drive License and full coverage insurance (I also have 2 car seats and 2 booster seats). Please contact me if you want to no know more about me, my experiences and when I am available. Looking forward to talk to you. Thank you!
Hi, my name is Allison and I am 29 years old. I currently have a full time job at Marin Health Medical Center, so I am babysitting whenever I can. I graduated from Dominican University of California in May of 2019 with a degree in Biology. Before I attended Dominican I went to Terra Linda High School and Mark Day, so I am a Marin local. Aside from my schooling, I like to travel, surf, play soccer, spend time with my family and friends, bake and more. I have been babysitting for several years and I have had experience with children of all ages. I love babysitting because I love watching children develop and grow and be someone that they feel they can count on and trust. Please reach out if you have any questions!
Hi! My name is Cindy, and I’m 27 years old! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have lived in Marin County my entire life. I have over 6 years of babysitting experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I’ve also volunteered at local schools and after-school programs. I’m responsible, patient, reliable, and love keeping kids entertained with outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and fun games! I have great references available upon request and also offer pet sitting and overnight care. I look forward to meeting your family! 😊 Please note: I have a 4-hour minimum booking requirement. If care ends earlier than our agreed time, the full scheduled amount is still due. Feel free to message me with any questions! 💗

"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
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
