Hello! I’m Ana :) I have over 8 years of nannying experience. I have my Masters in Social work and currently work as family therapist full time. I’m saving up to buy a house and am only looking for occasional and date night sitting currently. I am also open to weekend and overnight sitting. I have experience working with children on the spectrum and enjoy working with kids of all ages.
“Ana did a wonderful job with our two boys who can definitely be rambunctious. They went to the park and had a great time. Ana was very communicative and kept us posted the whole time. I felt very comfortable leaving the kids in her hands. House was tidy when we got home. We would love to have her sit for us again soon!”

Not currently accepting new families. I Hi my name is Seraphina and I'm a student at Merritt College. I'm currently working as a server and studying to become to a paralegal. I've been babysitting children since I was 14, when I started watching over family friends' children. When I was 15 I started working at Strawberry Canyon Explorer Camp where I worked for 8 years teaching children ages 4-10. At camp I worked with kids one on one as well as in large groups. I've also spent years volunteering in local elementary schools. I love teaching and hope to be an elementary school teacher in a few years. I've primarily worked with kids ages 4-7 but have experience with older as well. I love bringing them outside and teaching them sports, as well as helping them with that tough math problem. In my free time I read a lot, especially comics, and dream about playing lacrosse again. Please note that I have no experience with children younger than 3. Thanks for looking at my profile, I hope to hear from you soon!
Hi! I'm Anja (An-ya)! I’m a Bay Area native and a mom! I have a daughter who is 3. I have availability on Thursday with some Fridays. Let me know if you want my daughter to come along! I've been working as a babysitter and nanny since high school, when I regularly babysat for neighborhood families with toddler age children. In college I worked for a service (fittingly) called College Nannies and Tutors, which provided on-call care for a variety of families across the Bay Area. I was booked with families whose daycare providers were on vacation, children who were too sick to go to school, and for kids whose parents worked from home - or who just needed a day to themselves! As you can imagine, I got to know a diverse group of children and parents and was able to work closely with them to meet their own special set of needs. I love fostering children's imagination and independence, and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether it's dinosaurs, dump trucks, Elsa, or Lightning McQueen, if they're interested, I'm interested!
“Anya was great with our 9 month old! Super communicative and attentive. We would hire her again, definitely!”
I’ve been a nanny for over 15 years and truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel safe. I am patient, dependable, and loving, with experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I enjoy planning fun, age-appropriate activities, reading, crafts, outdoor play, and creating a consistent daily routine. I’m looking for a part-time nanny position, available weekdays from 2:30 PM to 11:45 PM and open to weekend care. I do not provide pet care. I look forward to finding a wonderful family to support!
