Hellooo!! I’m Guadalupe but you can call me Guada, it is shorter and easier to pronounce :) I am looking for a part time very early in the mornings, or in the afternoons, ideally ~ 3 to 6pm (I have a remote part time job as well). I am a former Au Pair, and I lived with my host family for 3.5 years taking care of 2 kids (5 and 6 years old). Also, I have ~4 years of experience with two 5 y/o kids + experience with many occasional jobs with different families including baby-sitting and house management. Let me know if you are looking for a part time nanny or you need occasional help in the evenings! Gracias, Thank you! 7 years of experience working with kids ✔️ Experience handling situations with kids with special needs ✔️ Vaccinated + Booster ✔️ Energetic and highly motivated 🔝 Drivers license + experience driving in SF ✔️ I don't own a car❗️

“My 2 boys asked "when can Guadalupe come back?" as soon as she left. I asked what they liked and they said "she's so nice!" So, she was totally great to have over, and I would definitely ask for her help in the future!”

Hi there, Nice to meet you! I'm Omy, I bring over 5 years of experience, and I'd love to help you with the most precious thing of your life, your children! I'm from Spain, raised in a beautiful archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean known as the Canary Islands. I love to speak to kids in Spanish so they can learn from my culture too! I strongly believe that having a caregiver from a different culture really exposes and expands your child's mind. Only accepting payments via cash. Please, do not hesitate to contact me to discuss more details. Looking forward to hearing from you!

“We feel so lucky to have had Omy as our nanny! We’re sad our schedules don’t align any more, but we’re happy to recommend Omy to the next lucky family to work with her! Omy was dependable, responsible, and always there when we needed her. She was able to really connect with the kids, she really got them. A few more things: - Omy is also a great and safe driver and has her own car - Omy has excellent bilingual communication skills (English and Spanish) - Omy is healthy and energetic and fantastic about encouraging healthy habits - Omy’s very organized and on top of things like schedules, lunches, etc. Maybe last thing to add is that there were a few times where due to unforeseen circumstances we needed extra unexpected help and Omy went above and beyond to adjust her schedule to help us out. This was far beyond what we’d normally expect and showed Omy really cared about the kids and helping us out. I highly recommend Omy! She’s wonderful and was great to work with!”

Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

Hi my name is Dessie. I have experience with babysitting children and dogs. I have past experience with childcare and also currently babysit from time to time. I used to work as a childcare facilitator, where I would do arts and crafts, learning activities, prepared snacks and schedule downtime for the littles. I currently babysit when time allows it and love to do art projects and fun creative sensory games with pantry foods. I also encourage to meet before babysitting to ensure it is a good fit. My experience with dogs has been in a span of several years whether is walking, dog sitting, or just taking care of my own. I have a dog of my own that is very sweet and gentle. In the past I would dog sit for a lot of friends and would also do dog walking for strangers (through dog-walking app) from time to time. I have always loved dogs and have been volunteering at shelters here are there. Outside of childcare and dog care. I work an administrative job for an environmental sustainable company. I often spend my down time rock climbing, running and organizing/ cleaning spaces. I thrive in an environment where I can organize and clean. Often if I am babysitting or dog sitting I will clean the home as much as I can when asked to. If that’s not something you’d like I will respect your space and home but will definitely clean after your pup or child. I know it’s tough finding someone to trust to be in your home and take care of your loved ones so I also encourage that having a nanny cam or pet cam to check in is a good way to have a piece of mind and am always open to any suggestions or constructive criticisms. If you have any questions please reach out. Thank you!

“I cannot recommend Dessrie highly enough when it comes to caring for dogs. She is not only patient, attentive, and deeply responsible, but she also has a natural connection with animals that puts both pets and their owners at ease. What stands out most about Dessrie is the level of trust you can place in her. She is dependable, communicative, and treats every dog as if they were her own. Whether it’s ensuring their safety, giving them the right amount of exercise, or providing plenty of love and attention, she goes above and beyond. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly great with dogs, Dessrie is the person you can count on without hesitation”

Booked by 3 families in Alameda, CA

Hello! My name is Livia. I’m a 32-year-old Brazilian childcare provider with over 10 years of experience working with children. My journey started in Brazil volunteering at daycares, church programs, and babysitting for local families. After moving to the USA, I served as an Au Pair for 2 years and have been working as a professional nanny in the Bay Area ever since, including long-term roles with wonderful local families. Currently, I am in a career transition while pursuing my studies, which is why I am focusing on part-time and occasional babysitting jobs. Childcare remains a passion of mine, and I continue to offer reliable, high-quality care to families in the area. I’d love to connect, meet your family, and chat about my background or answer any questions you have about me!

“Livia was my sister's au pair. Given we've known her for a long time, we are closer to her than other sitters. Livia is warm, kind, reliable, and great with kids. She is easy to work with and my girls love her. She can take my kids to museums and outings around the city. She connects with kids and keeps them happy! I would book her again no question!”
