Hi, I’m Rhonda! If you’re looking for someone who truly loves being around kids—you’ve found her 😊 I’m a trusted, experienced caregiver with a fingerprint clearance and a clean driving record. I’m also the owner of Sensory Celebrations, a local kids entertainment company that creates themed activity tables for birthdays, school events, and community festivals. There’s a good chance your little ones may have already played at my tables at Campbell Park, Oktoberfest, Halloween events, or the Bunnies & Bonnets Parade event! I bring that same playful, engaging energy into every babysitting experience. I don’t just “watch” kids—I connect with them, play with them, and create fun, hands-on moments that keep them happy and engaged (and give parents peace of mind). I’m also a proud grandma to three AMAZING grandchildren (two borns in 2025 and one in 2023), and I care for them often. Being part of their lives is one of my greatest joys. In addition, I serve in the nursery and toddler classrooms at my church, so I’m very comfortable with infants, toddlers, and young children of all personalities. What you can expect when I’m with your children: • Warm, attentive, and patient care • Engaging play (not screens unless you prefer it) • Safe, reliable, and responsible supervision • A natural ability to connect with kids of all ages Whether you need a few hours to run errands, a date night, or overnight care, I would love to support your family. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! 💛 — Rhonda

Hi my name is Sarah, I absolutely love being around kids and helping them learn and navigate through everyday life. I love creating a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for both kids and parents! I have experience caring for children of different ages and I’m comfortable helping with pick-up, play time, homework, and light housekeeping. My goal is to provide attentive care while making sure your children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I am certified in both CPR and first aid. I also have a well maintained car (2014 Subaru Outback) that is up to date with maintenance. I also have experience with special needs! My little sister has down syndrome so I’ve been around special needs my entire life and not just Down syndrome but Autism as well!
Hello, my name is Manuela, I am 26 years old, I am from Colombia therefore my language is not English, I speak Spanish and I am in a progressive process of learning English, I have already worked with people who do not speak Spanish and they have given me the opportunity to give them my services without any problem, only a little patience. I'm looking for someone to share time with, I can after 4:00pm ... I have experience with children from 6 months to 10 years old ... I am a very charismatic person with children, loving and understanding ... I can give full attention to the needs of children, I like to play, and teach them new things that help them in their development depending on the age, in the middle of my care I can teach slightly Spanish and get good results if that is what you want as parents, I also have CPR certification.
Hello, my name is Sunita. I have been working as a preschool teacher and babysitter for over 15 years mostly in the Bay Area. I also tutor kids to give them a boost in their education if showing weakness in any Subject. I love teaching and caring for young children, babies and toddlers as well as school age. I love doing arts and craft projects, music , singing, stories and just fun games to keep them busy and entertained besides taking care of their naps, feeding, diapering, and homework. I try to make it fun and happy when I’m helping the children as much as possible. I myself love little ones as this is an adorable age. I can put together simple quick meals if needed. I’m also looking for some summer time hours as I don’t work in the summer months and need to keep myself busy too. I drive and have my own car.

"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!"
