Booked by 9 families in El Cerrito, CA

Hi- my name is Danielle! I am a public school teacher of 4 years (3rd grade for 3, 2nd grade for 1). I’m looking to make some extra money on the side with house sitting, pet sitting, babysitting, or tutoring. I have a bachelors degree in Childhood Development, i have worked in a preschool as the head teacher and also in an after-school program with elementary aged kiddos, and also spent two years as a full time nanny to twins (3 yrs). I’m mostly looking for evening care jobs or weekends when my schedule permits. I have experience with tutoring elementary school aged kids as well as experience with special needs kids. I have a lot of pet sitting experience and have owned dogs/cats my entire life. I don’t have a ton of free time during weekdays but would be willing to work out check ins or walks if necessary. House sitting would be ideal for my schedule. I have housesat numerous times for family and friends in the past and would feel very comfortable if pets were there too!

“Danielle was great, super friendly and took care of our daughter. She did not shy away from toddler behaviors and jumped right in! ”

Hi, my name is Jiahui, but I go by Kelly. I’m a recent college graduate and am open to any babysitting opportunities. I have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I grew up with two younger siblings and also worked as a seasonal babysitter at a private childcare. Duties involved meal prepping, feeding, changing diapers, potty training, managing routines, and leading fun indoor and outdoor activities. I have also worked as a K-5 tutor, supporting groups of up to 10 students in reading, writing, and math, as well as organizing science and art activities. I’m happy to assist with any homework help as well. Currently, I volunteer at the farmers market where I lead and facilitate group field trips that encourage children to build a positive relationship with food and explore their curiosities surrounding food. Feel free to reach out if this seems like a good fit! I’d be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have!

“Kelly was lovely, on time, creative and great with our son! We will be hiring her regularly! ”
