Geeta $28 per hour for 1 child

I’am a calm, attentive, and responsible babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I focus on creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and engaged. I’m patient and adaptable, whether that means helping with homework, organizing fun and creative activities, or simply sticking to a child’s routine so they feel secure. I pay close attention to details—like dietary needs, bedtime schedules, and house rules—and I take those seriously. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure to keep parents informed and follow their preferences closely. At the same time, I bring a warm, friendly energy so kids see me as someone they can trust and have fun with, not just someone in charge. Overall, I aim to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children feel confident with.

Booked by 1 family in San Pablo, CA

Hi! My name is Beatriz, but most people call me Bea. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable childcare provider and a mom to a wonderful six year old boy. My love for working with children began at 14 when I helped care for children ages 0–5 at my church. Since then, I’ve gained experience in childcare and school settings including working as a paraprofessional. I also have experience supporting children with special needs and understand the importance of patience, flexibility, and getting to know each child’s individual needs. I have completed 16 units in early childhood education, which have helped me better understand children’s development and how to support their learning through play and everyday routines. I enjoy creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel comfortable being themselves, exploring, and growing. As a parent, I know how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care. I value open communication with families and bring kindness, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to my work. I am bilingual in English and Spanish. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and support your little one!

Hello! My name is Salika B, and I’m a responsible, compassionate, and energetic babysitter with over two years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where they feel loved, respected, and encouraged to be themselves. I specialize in planning fun, educational, and age-appropriate activities that spark creativity and promote learning—such as arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor games, storytime, and basic educational games that support early development. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing healthy snacks or meals, and maintaining routines like bedtime and screen time in a calm and positive way. What sets me apart is my patient and caring nature, my reliability, and my genuine passion for helping children grow with confidence and curiosity. I understand the importance of trust and open communication with parents, and I’m always happy to work together to ensure your child’s unique needs are met. Please don't hesitate to contact me at [removed]) if you have any questions or would like to discuss how I can best support your family.
