Hi there! I’m a warm, reliable caregiver with over 5 years of professional pediatric experience supporting children and families, along with many years of babysitting throughout college and beyond. My background in childhood development along with the many young children in my family have given me a strong understanding of children 6 months and beyond, along with how to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs at every stage. I believe in fostering play and curiosity while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. Some of the activities I love are playing games, pretend play, music, and playing outside! I take great pride in being a caregiver that families are able to trust and rely on. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and I look forward to chatting!

Hi I’m Leeah and I am back in the Bay Area. I am looking for work part time as a nanny. I’m available after 5pm M-F and free Saturday-Sunday. I have over 4 years of experience nannying & working part-time at a daycare, where I would facilitate morning circle, arts / crafts, outdoor activity at park, nap time, and snack / food setup. I also have a younger brother who is currently 14 years old :) I do have experience working with kids on the spectrum and I am there to help the family and BT with any daily activities. My favorite activity is arts and crafts 😊 If you are looking for someone who is punctual and kind-hearted, feel free to reach out to me ! I would love to be your sitter. CPR certified

Hello, I'm Jessica, a 34-year-old Brazilian currently studying Respiratory Care. My passion for caring for children began at the age of 16, looking after my cousins. I have extensive experience with infants and toddlers, although I adore children of all ages! On sunny days, I enjoy trips to the park or leisurely walks, and on rainy days, we can engage in creative activities like coloring, painting, or fort building. Outside of childcare, I relish hiking, exploring new destinations, and cherishing moments with friends. I also come with excellent references attesting to my dedication and competence in childcare.

Hello! I’m Celine. I was a dedicated nanny with 1 year of experience caring for children mainly less than 1 year old during my semester breaks and while I was pregnant. I graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with a Bachelors degree in Business administration but focusing on childcare after I had my baby. I was a full time stay at home mom seeking a full time or part time job to support my son. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing and fun environment for infants and children to feel loved and thrive. I understand that every family is unique, have their own communication and teaching style towards their children and I will make sure that we are on the same page. I look forward to connecting with your family and provide your little one the loving care they deserve! - CPR and First Aid Certified - Non-Smoker - Vaccinated (Covid, MMR, Chicken Pox, Hep B, Tdap) - Comfortable with Pets Regards, Celine
