Shelby $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, my name is Shelby. I'm currently a 5th-8th grade educator but have taken care of newborns, and worked professionally in environments with children as young as 3 and up to 17. I love creating fun and inclusive spaces for children which is why I've dedicated the last 8 years to working with them! I'm also a huge pet lover (with a rabbit and pug of my own) and would love to meet any fur babies of yours 😄. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my qualifications or experiences. I'm CPR/First Aid/AED certified.

Booked by 1 family in Canyon, CA

Hi! I’m an elementary school teacher with 10 years of experience working with children, primarily in grades K–5. I bring a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach to every caregiving role. I take pride in being dependable, proactive, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being and growth. I love helping families maintain structure and supportive routines for their children. In addition, I am comfortable preparing meals, light housekeeping, laundry, and bed and bathtime routines. I value a clear outline of duties and clear communication with families, especially if I take children on an outing, so you are always informed and at ease. I have extensive childcare experience beyond the classroom and am confident in supporting different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I prioritize safety, consistency, and warmth, while also fostering independence and confidence in children. I have cared for babies as young as 6 months. I'm currently in a Mother's Helper/Light Childcare role in San Leandro. With my full-time teaching schedule, I would love to work with a family in Oakland. I look forward to connecting!

Dominique $30 per hour for 1 child

I recently moved back to the area and am seeking childcare opportunities. My ample experience with kids in both childcare settings and as a counselor make me uniquely qualified for any childcare position. I worked as a child trauma counselor for children of all ages for five years. This experience provided me with an astute ability to connect emotionally with children, understand their needs, and help them to feel safe. I have a Masters in Social Work and Bachelors in Psychology; and worked as a babysitter and nanny for various families while in school. While studying for my Bachelors, I worked at a daycare for four years. I have a year of experience providing behavioral therapy to children and teens with autism and/or developmental disabilities, in addition to caring for kids with special needs in nannying settings. I have adored developing strong bonds with children throughout my life.

Hi! My name is Zoya. I’m a responsible, patient person who enjoys spending time with children and creating a safe, positive environment for them. I speak three languages and love cooking and baking, and I enjoy doing fun and creative activities with kids.

I’m happy to help with childcare, homework, simple meals, and light housekeeping. I currently don’t drive, but I am punctual and dependable. My goal is always to make children feel safe, comfortable, and happy.
