Hello! I am an undergraduate student at Santa Clara University majoring in Civil Engineering. I have over six years of babysitting experience and have worked for two years at elementary schools as a paraeducator.

London $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m London, a neuroscience major and student-athlete who has always loved working with children and hopes to continue doing so in the future. I have been babysitting for 6 years and have experience caring for children of different ages, including children with special needs. Being a student-athlete has taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, communication, and time management. I love creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves while also encouraging their curiosity and growth. This summer, I had the opportunity to work as a camp counselor with children ages 4–12, where I planned activities, built relationships with campers, and helped create a positive experience for every child. I absolutely loved getting to be a part of their days and watching their personalities shine. I’m passionate about making kids feel valued, supported, and excited to learn and play. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family!

Shelby 2 reviews
$36 per hour for 1 child

As an aunt and caregiver, I love working with families and their children! I have worked as a day camp counselor, swim teacher, newborn and young child nanny, as well as volunteer with programs like Jasper Ridge Farm and CASA. My favorite part about working with kids and babies is getting to know their individual personalities, as each one is so different! I particularly enjoy and excel at working with kids under the age of five, including newborns and infants. I would say my general approach is to provide fun, creative, and engaging care, with *a lot* of patience and communication. I also believe in gently reaffirming boundaries and doing our best to stick to your child's individual routine. I hope to promote a sense of confidence, creativity, and security in the children I provide care for. I have been infant CPR certified within the last 2.5 years, and will be renewing asap. I have also been lifeguard certified and am more than happy to get re-trained if your child has access to a private pool.

“Shelby has cared for our almost-3yo daughter several times from infant through toddler stages. I’m always impressed at her ability to meet her at her level over time. She is always engaged with her when they are together, bringing lots of fun and energy while also maintaining boundaries. I would highly recommend.”

Sunita $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Sunita. I have been working as a preschool teacher and babysitter for over 15 years mostly in the Bay Area. I also tutor kids to give them a boost in their education if showing weakness in any Subject. I love teaching and caring for young children, babies and toddlers as well as school age. I love doing arts and craft projects, music , singing, stories and just fun games to keep them busy and entertained besides taking care of their naps, feeding, diapering, and homework. I try to make it fun and happy when I’m helping the children as much as possible. I myself love little ones as this is an adorable age. I can put together simple quick meals if needed. I’m also looking for some summer time hours as I don’t work in the summer months and need to keep myself busy too. I drive and have my own car.
