Emily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Emily and I am currently a part-time freelance tutor for elementary aged children. I am offering child care, senior care, and household cleaning services. I love working in childcare and have previously worked as a summer camp counselor (campers aged 4 to 13) as well as an in-class aide for special needs students and a math and language arts tutor for students aged 6 to 12. I have worked positions requiring school drop-off/pick-up, preparing simple meals for children as well as seniors, engaging children in fun after-school activities and outdoor play, tutoring, housework, running errands, and in-home eldercare--including medication administration, memory care, daily hygiene, and cleaning. I served as my own father's end-of-life caregiver and understand the needs of seniors living out their last years as comfortably as possible in-home. I can engage children's critical thinking and problem-solving skills to improve their academic performance, and I'm good at devising easy, fun games for children to stimulate their creative imaginations. I also have a lifetime of experience caring for cats. I am not as familiar with dog care, but I am happy to learn.

Lara $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Lara and I’m a professional nanny with over 6 years of experience caring for children from infants to pre-teens. I’m CPR certified, bilingual in English and Portuguese, and passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and fun environments where kids can thrive. I’ve worked with families in Woodside, Menlo Park, Redwood City, and Portola Valley, providing everything from daily care to overnight stays while parents travel. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school, organizing playdates, helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, and planning creative activities. I love supporting children’s emotional growth, encouraging independence, and making each day both safe and enjoyable. I can also assist with light household tasks and am happy to provide great references from the families I’ve worked with.

Booked by 1 family in Atherton, CA

Hello! I am former au pair with extensive childcare experience, and I’m also a proud mum to a 15-year-old daughter. I truly love being around children and find so much joy in supporting their growth, creativity, and everyday routines. I currently work at Stanford during the week, but I’d love the opportunity to support your family on weekday evenings after 5 pm and on weekends. I am BLS certified, including CPR, and my rate is $30 per hour (happy to discuss). Thank you Kasia
