Hello, I'm Mallu! I have +9 years of childcare experience, having cared for kids aged 2 months to 14 years. My expertise covers childcare, household management, and pet care. Over the past years, I've worked as a full-time caregiver for several families in the Bay area. Additionally, I've provided babysitting services to many families with children of different ages. During my educational journey, I also took child development classes, which added an extra layer of understanding to my practical experience. I'm genuinely enthusiastic about helping children grow, achieve milestones, and develop important skills. Whether it's organizing outdoor activities or engaging in indoor play, I take joy in providing engaging experiences for children of all ages. Beyond childcare, I like cooking, staying active through exercise, and immersing myself in good reads. If you're seeking an extra hand to make things easier, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you for considering me. Mallu
“Mallu was absolutely wonderful. Our ~2 year old son took to her very quickly, and we felt lucky to have her help!”
Hi! My name is Jadesola and I am a CPR certified, new grad RN with my BSN. I am offering childcare and household services. I love working with children. I have over 4 years of experience working as a teachers assistant at the Early Childhood Education Center with a focus in toddlers and preschool age children and additional experience caring for infants. Some of my responsibilities included nap-time routines, engaging in crafts, diapering/potty assistance, snack preparation, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and supervising and engaging in lots of play! I’m also comfortable caring for older children. I can cook and clean and enjoy baking, jewelry making and crafty things in general. While I don’t drive, I can easily commute to your location and assist with walking-distance or public transit pick-ups if needed. I’d love the opportunity to help your child grow, thrive, and feel supported; whether we’re creating art, baking cookies, going to the park or just having a fun afternoon together!

Hello! My name is Catalina, I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. While my first language is Spanish, I am actively learning English to improve my communication skills. I’m currently taking online English classes to become more confident in conversation. I absolutely love being around children of all ages, from infants to toddlers, and I take great joy in seeing them grow and thrive. I am a loving, energetic, and active person, and I enjoy spending time outdoors with kids—whether it’s engaging in fun activities or creative projects that help nurture their imagination. I have extensive experience caring for my cousins and friends’ children, and I also have a strong knowledge of nutrition, which allows me to ensure the overall well-being of the children in my care. I’m highly responsible, always on time, and dependable. I can drive, cook, clean, and run errands as needed.
“We’ve hired Catalina as an extra kids helper for our church’s gatherings multiple times, so we’ve had the opportunity to watch her first-hand with our kids. Catalina is on-time, kind, and responsive. She engages with kids in a naturally warm and helpful way, and communicates well with parents and volunteers, too. We'll definitely hire Catalina again!”
