Skyler 2 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in San Ramon, CA

Hi! My name is Skyler, and I’m currently a student at the University of Oklahoma pursuing a degree in Speech Language Pathology with an interest in working with children. Before starting college, I took a gap year where I worked extensively with families as a nanny and pet sitter. During that time, I cared for children of many ages, helped with daily routines, supervised activities, assisted with homework, prepared meals and snacks, and provided dependable support to busy families. My gap year gave me valuable hands on experience, strengthened my communication skills, and confirmed my passion for working with children. In addition to childcare experience, I have worked as a camp counselor and have experience creating engaging, age appropriate activities that help children learn, grow, and have fun. I enjoy arts and crafts, outdoor activities, reading, animals and finding creative ways to keep kids engaged. My goal is always to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident their children are in good hands!

“Skyler was great with our kids and really wonderful with communication! I would definitely hire Skyler again!”

yeca $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Yeca. I have experience taking care of children of different ages and I currently take care of two girls of 1 year and a half and 3 years old. I am an honest, independent person and I quickly learn the routines that each family has with their children. I love spending time with children, playing, reading stories to them and helping them in their development with patience and affection. I speak Spanish and I can also communicate in basic English. As I am new to this app, I offer an extra 30 free minutes in which I can help you with light household chores, such as the dishwasher or anything else you need. My goal is for them to feel calm and satisfied with my work.

Jessica $22 per hour for 1 child

I served as a nanny throughout my college years and am also a mother to three children, who are now in high school, middle school, and third grade. While I have experience across all ages, I find the toddler stage particularly rewarding as they begin to explore the world around them. I also find the infant stage to be a truly precious time. To ensure I can provide my undivided attention and the highest quality of care, I am primarily looking to work with a single family rather than participating in a nanny share. I would love to discuss how my experience and approach to childcare might align with your family's needs.

"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!"
