Joshua $20 per hour for 1 child

Grew up taking care of my younger sister while both my parents worked long hours. Worked for healthcare system backoffice software for the last decade. Looking to make a bigger community impact and help real people outside the healthcare system. I'm extremely patient and work well with all sorts of personalities, albeit I can be a little bit awkward sometimes. I love fixing things and getting into the details. Always happy to listen to people's stories.

Cinthia 1 review
$38 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in El Cerrito, CA

Hi! I’m Cinthia, and I have 6+ years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants as young as 4 months old to pre-teens up to 12 years old. I truly love working with children and especially enjoy caring for infants, toddlers, and young girls. I love keeping kids engaged through age-appropriate activities, outdoor play, creative games, reading, and helping with homework, while always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m CPR certified, patient, responsible, and dependable. I bring a calm, positive energy into the home and always do my best to make things easier for both the children and their parents. I’m currently looking for part-time opportunities, especially on Mondays and Fridays, as well as occasional babysitting such as date nights, evenings, weekends, and last-minute or extra help when families need it. I have a valid U.S. driver’s license and my own transportation, and I’m comfortable driving children when needed. If you’re looking for someone caring, trustworthy, responsible, and fun to spend time with your little ones, I’d love to connect! ❤️

“I’m so happy to recommend Cinthia as a babysitter. She’s been amazing with my twins and has truly become part of our family. From the start, she showed how reliable and trustworthy she is, and I always feel at ease leaving my kids with her. She takes care of all the daily needs ( feeding them, giving them baths, getting them ready for bed) and she’s even stayed overnight when we needed extra help. Having someone so calm and patient in the house has been a huge plus, especially with two little ones who sometimes both want attention at the same time. What I really appreciate is how she goes beyond just “watching” the kids. She takes them out on playdates, keeps them busy with fun activities, and makes sure they’re safe while still letting them explore and enjoy themselves. She has a really gentle way about her, and the twins just light up when she’s around. Even on hectic days, she never seems flustered and always keeps things running smoothly. Cinthia is dependable, easy to communicate with, and so caring toward my kids. Knowing she’s there gives me peace of mind because I know my twins are happy and well looked after. Any family would be lucky to have her as their babysitter, and I can honestly say she’s been one of the best things to happen to us.”
