Chloe $26 per hour for 1 child

Fostering children's growth and development is my true passion. Over the past two years, I have embraced the opportunity to make a positive impact on young lives through dedicated caregiving. I am a patient, calm, and creative professional who genuinely enjoys engaging children through educational games, puzzles, and board games. I hold First Aid Training certification and am very comfortable enforcing your household rules to ensure consistency. Whether I am assisting with meal preparation, light housekeeping, or supervising swimming, I prioritize safety and fun. I value clear communication and will provide regular updates via text or in-person chats to keep you informed about your child's day.

I look forward to bringing my imaginative approach to your home and becoming a supportive, trusted partner in your family's daily life.

Brooke $26 per hour for 1 child

I’m a reliable, warm and attentive 30-year-old based in the Berkeley area, currently transitioning from a career in communications into publishing and bookselling. While I get settled in the East Bay, I’m returning to nannying and babysitting, something I’ve loved and returned to throughout my life. I’ve been caring for children since my teenage years, with consistent experience babysitting and nannying over time. I’m most experienced with children ages 4–12, and I also have some hands-on experience with infants and toddlers. I love being part of a child’s day in a way that feels both fun and supportive, whether that’s imaginative play, helping with homework or creating a calm, engaging environment. I’m naturally organized, communicative and emotionally attuned. I pay close attention to what children need, physically and emotionally, and I do my best to create a space where they feel comfortable, understood and encouraged to be themselves. Families I’ve worked with would describe me as dependable, warm and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and someone kids feel at ease around. Beyond childcare, I’m happy to help keep things running smoothly at home! This can include light tidying, organizing, meal prep , etc.

Sohyung Gabriella $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

Hi! My name is Sohyung, and I’m an international medical graduate currently living in San Francisco. I moved here with my husband and am currently studying for my U.S. medical board exams while looking for a meaningful part-time position. I was born in Korea, grew up in Canada, and have lived in several countries including Hungary, where I completed medical school. Growing up with a younger sister who was born when I was 13, I naturally took on a caregiving role from a young age. I’ve also worked part-time as an English teacher for children during university, which strengthened my love for working with kids. I am calm, responsible, and attentive, with a strong understanding of child development and safety due to my medical training. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through creative play, reading, and educational activities. I would love to support your family in a reliable and caring way. Looking forward to connecting with you!

I also specialize in evening and nighttime routines, helping with dinner, bath time, homework, and smooth bedtimes so parents can confidently enjoy a well-deserved break.
