Booked by 1 family in Albany, CA

Hi, my name is Gislaine. I’m originally from Brazil and 46 years old. I am a responsible, dedicated childcare professional with extensive experience caring for newborns, twins, and toddlers, available for weekdays, weekends, and evenings. I specialize in creating engaging, fun, and developmentally appropriate activities that support children’s growth and learning. I am CPR certified and trained in sleep routines, and I hold certifications as a Postpartum Doula, with additional training in Montessori methods and lactation support. I am also happy to assist with light housekeeping and organization related to the children, helping to keep the home running smoothly and minimizing parents’ workload. I am fluent in Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, and English, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in International Business. As a mother of two sons whom I raised on my own—both now college graduates—I bring not only professional experience but also deep personal understanding, patience, and care. I truly love working with children and would be happy to support your family.

“Gislaine responded to a last minute request to babysit when my daughter got sick and I couldn't be at home for the full day. When she came to the house, she asked great questions, played with my daughter, and comforted her. She was very responsive throughout the day and sent me updates. I plan to have her come back tomorrow.”

Hi families! My name is Leticia, and I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages, from newborns to pre-teens. I’ve been working as a nanny for over six years; I love helping kids not only have fun but also learn along the way. My childcare style is creative, energetic, and responsible—I enjoy arts and crafts, outdoor play, and reading stories. I’m also happy to help with homework, prepare simple meals, and keep routines running smoothly. Families describe me as reliable, warm, and ready to act. I truly enjoy creating a safe, positive environment where kids can thrive, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Zemaye 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child

I am a high-energy extrovert who truly loves creating "backyard adventures" for the little ones I care for! With over 10 years of residency in San Francisco, I am well-versed in the city’s best museums, parks, and extracurricular activities. I have 2 years of experience specifically with infants and toddlers, and I pride myself on bringing a bubbly personality and a constant smile to every playdate. Beyond childcare, I am a trusted pet sitter for cats and dogs, and I am always happy to help with light household tasks. Recently, I spent time supporting a close friend following a medical emergency. She had a stroke during the first month of pregnancy and lost function of her right hand. I was able to provide full-time care for her 5-month-old and managing household chores so she could focus on recovery. I find deep fulfillment in being the person a family can lean on. I look forward to bringing that same dedication, joy, and local expertise to your home!

“Zemaye is very helpful! She was very attentive of my 5 month old child. I would highly recommend her services!”

Hello! My name is Margaret! I’m new here, and excited to start my part time position becoming your house sitter, cleaner, or pet sitter. I can also pick up kids from school, do laundry or errands and things of that nature. I can provide people who can attest that I am trustworthy, kind, and that I learn very quickly! I am super diligent and hardworking and most of all, focused. Hope to talk to you soon!

“Margaret has been a fantastic helper for our family. She's always punctual and reliable. She works really hard and takes directions well. She takes on any new household task that we throw her way with enthusiasm. We are very happy to have found her and grateful for her support.”

Sefanit $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Sefanit and I’m currently a college student. I am offering child care and household help for families who may need an extra hand. I enjoy spending time with children and have experience helping take care of my younger siblings and nephews. My responsibilities have included playing with them, helping with meals, keeping them engaged with activities, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. I enjoy doing activities with kids such as drawing, reading stories, playing games, and spending time outside. I can also help with simple homework, basic cooking, and light household tasks. I can also braid hair and enjoy helping kids feel confident and comfortable. I like creating a calm and positive environment where children can have fun and feel supported.
