Kari 1 review
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Kari! I am a graduate student at CSUMB and a Navy veteran. I have always enjoyed fostering loving and fun environments for children starting when I was a Girl Scout camp counselor in my teens, to babysitting and nannying after my time in the Navy, until now after having my own son! Some of my favorite activities to do with children are arts / crafts, beach days, aquarium visits, gardening, library story times, etc! I am CPR and basic life support (for adults and infants) certified and recently took the recertification course. I have advanced knowledge of combat casualty care as well. I have base and commissary access if needed for your situation. I am very good with all kinds of animals of all kinds of temperament.

“Kari is an AMAZING sitter/nanny. I was having some consistency issues with my current daycare because the lady running our daycare was dealing with some doctors appointments, and THANK GOD I had Kari to help with those days I didn’t have care for my son. I wish I could have switched to Kari all together, but unfortunately it just wouldn’t work for my schedule and it’s the only reason she isn’t our full time care. She was fully engaged with my son, she followed our schedule to the second, she fed him great food, all whole foods all very healthy, she even washed his clothes when he got them wet. She even took the kids to the beach! My son had soooo much fun with her. She’s an amazing mom and and amazing caregiver. She is the kost impressive sitter I have ever used and my son loves her so much.”

Aaralyn $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Carmel, CA

I am a responsible and dependable college student at California State University, Monterey Bay, studying psychology with a strong interest in child development and education. I have experience working with children through volunteering and classroom settings, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids can learn and have fun. Families describe me as patient, caring, organized, and reliable. I am comfortable helping with homework, supervising activities, preparing simple meals, and assisting with light household tasks. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for animals. I grew up around dogs, cats, chickens, and horses, so I am comfortable with pet sitting, feeding, exercising, and providing attentive care for a variety of pets. I also love to do arts and crafts, sing, dance, watch movies, bake, and learn new hobbies with kiddos!!

Booked by 65 families in Carmel, CA

Hi families! My name is Brenda. I am a San Francisco native :) I was an infant/toddler and preschool teacher and an early interventionist assistant for 8 years before transitioning to my current job. I also did tutoring for a few years for elementary school age kids when I was in college. I participated in different programs, such as PITC(Program for Infant/Toddler Care), to further my knowledge in the early childhood education field. Occasionally I babysit for family, friends, and other contacts, which I enjoy very much! Look forward to meeting your family! :)

“Brenda is very friendly and reliable. Our daughters loved her, would definitely recommend.”
