I’m a caring, dependable caregiver with experience as a YMCA counselor, elementary classroom aide, and PE teacher. I’ve provided childcare for over 4 years and am a parent to a 9-year-old daughter. I also bring 5+ years of household services experience and 1 year of senior care, supporting two seniors with daily needs. I’m patient, organized, and genuinely love helping families feel supported and cared for.

Catie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Catie! I’m a 23 year old oldest sister, experienced nanny, and Wellesley College alumna new to the Santa Cruz area. During my gap year before my college, I worked 40-60 hours a week nannying two absolutely incredible kids (ages 2 and 4). And over the course of my undergrad, I worked 5-15 hours a week with a lovely family caring for their 4 year old daughter. In both these roles, I also assisted with organization, transportation, and housekeeping needs. I align with the Montessori philosophy of childcare, and think it’s imperative that kids feel seen, heard, and understood, and that they feel safe and empowered to learn and have fun! I’m looking for part-time and babysitting work. Please reach out - I’d love to see if I’m the right fit for your family!

Hi! I'm Ashley and I’m a middle school science teacher and volleyball coach. My whole life I’ve been working with kids of all ages, at summer camps, sports teams, etc. Before becoming a middle school teacher, I substitute taught at elementary schools and even lived in New Zealand as an au pair, working with two boys, 4 and 6 years old. I am very busy at the moment where I can only take on occasional jobs, usually on the weekends or holiday breaks. Nonetheless, please reach out if you think we’d be a good fit!
