My name is Jessica but I prefer to be called Jessy (system won't allow me to update my name). I’m a mom of a 10-year-old and a 3-year-old with a long background in childcare—babysitter, nanny, teacher, after-school, and summer camp work. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable with kids of all ages, pets, and light household help. I am a part time HR consultant who would love to make a little extra money and always love being around awesome kiddos.

Gabrielle $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Gabrielle. I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely loves spending time with children. I’ve been involved in my church’s children’s ministry since I was a teenager, caring for children of all ages—from just a few months old through high school. Over the years, that experience has taught me how to connect with different personalities and age groups, keep children engaged, manage routines, and create an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and happy to help with age-appropriate activities, simple meals or snacks, and light household tasks. I’m also very comfortable around pets. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in the person caring for their children, so I take safety, communication, reliability, and trust very seriously. I truly love kids and would be happy to become someone your family can depend on.

Jessica $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a warm, reliable, and bilingual caregiver with extensive experience working with children. I hold Montessori Early Childhood Education credits and previously worked as a Montessori preschool teacher for children ages 2–5, where I supported each child’s growth through hands-on learning, patience, and respect for their individuality. I am CPR certified and committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel valued and supported. Families describe me as caring, dependable, and attentive. I enjoy helping children build confidence, independence, and a love of learning while providing parents with peace of mind that their little ones are in capable and compassionate hands.

Sohyung Gabriella $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, 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!
