Lauren $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a dependable and engaging caregiver with extensive hands-on experience caring for young children. I’m a mom of two children, so I’m familiar with daily routines, transitions, and the needs of infants, preschool and early elementary-aged kids. I also have experience providing care for teens and tweens. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through art projects, books, imaginative play, building activities, and outdoor time, while also maintaining a calm and fun environment. I have prior babysitting experience and bring a patient and attentive approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable managing meals, playtime, and bedtime routines, and I’m also pet-friendly with many years of experience caring for cats. I’m currently seeking occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and am happy to support families who need a reliable, caring sitter.

Emily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Em I’ve recently moved back to the Bay Area from traveling and am looking for a fulfilling role with either children or seniors. I have experience working in childcare in a variety of forms such as, daycare provider, mother’s helper, and personal nanny. I’ve worked with children 10months- 5 years, but open to working with older kids as well. I’m comfortable with chores, errands, overnights, and helping the family in any way that I can as well. I have a background in health and wellness as a yoga instructor and am interested in finding a position focused on outdoor activities or where I can help children develop their curiosities and hobbies. I also have senior family members who I spend time with and would find fulfillment continuing to work as a helper.

Hi! I’m new to this platform, but not to childcare: Compassionate and reliable caregiver with 4+ years of professional cat and dog sitting experience and 3+ years caring for school-age children, plus 2+ years working with toddlers in educational settings. As a passionate undergraduate pre-law student, I bring certified babysitting credentials from Illinois, 6+ years of tutoring experience, and varying levels of fluency in three languages, plus English, to support multilingual families. My patient, attentive nature combined with my educational background allows me to provide exceptional childcare, pet care, homework assistance, meal preparation, and light household services. I believe in creating warm, structured environments where children feel safe to learn and grow, whether through organized activities, creative play, or simply providing caring supervision. Available for flexible scheduling including after-school care, evening babysitting, weekends, holidays, and emergency situations, I'm committed to supporting each family's unique needs with reliability, safety, and genuine care.
