Hi there! 👋 I have extensive childcare experience and absolutely love working with kids of all ages. For 7 years, I was a full-time nanny for a wonderful family with four children, which gave me hands-on experience balancing different ages, schedules, and personalities all at once. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and fun while also keeping things safe and structured. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or making sure bedtime runs smoothly, I truly enjoy supporting families and creating a positive environment for children to thrive.
Hello! My name is David. I like bugs, snacks, and playing with our imaginations! I have a decade of experience watching children from newborn-13 years old. Please reach out to me if you have inquiries about my availability and caregiving style.
Hi! My name is Ella and I am a first year law student. Although I am new to the babysitting/nanny scene, I grew up taking care of my younger brother who is seven years younger than me. I was also a part of the Big Brother Big Sister program in high school where I interacted with elementary aged children. I really enjoy interacting with children and I am capable of creating a fun and supportive environment!
Hello! I have over 20 years experience working with children in both childcare centers and home settings. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work and 12 units of child development coursework, as well as literacy courses. I am also a mother of 2 daughters ages 12 and 2! I LOVE all animals and currently have 2 dogs. I am easy going but structured and organized. I absolutely love spending my time with wonderous children ...and believe that there's nothing more precious in this life than a baby who's learning to crawl (and walk). Although, I recognize and appreciate the lil quirks that come with each stage of development.
Hello families! My name is Karen I prefer Ren. I have been working with children and families for 10+ years! I am a certified postpartum doula and have worked as an infant teacher, toddler, preschool and school aged children as a paraprofessional! I’m currently in school finishing up my bachelors in clinical social work!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
