Booked by 1 family in Olema, CA

Hi families! I’m Paula. I’ve been working in childcare since 2017 – over 9 years of experience with children ages 6 months to 16 years. I also spent 2 years as an au pair, so I’m very comfortable being a warm, reliable part of a family’s daily life. My current situation: I’m currently caring for a wonderful 2-year-old, but I previously was taking care her sibling before he started school. I’ve been with my most recent family for 5 years – but both of their children are starting to go to school full-time, so I’m respectfully transitioning to a new opportunity. Safety & reliability: . Fully vaccinated . Own car + clean driving record . References available from past families What I bring to your family: I’m loving, patient, and proactive. I love helping children, I enjoy the outdoors – parks, hiking, exploring nature – but I’m also great at indoor crafts, games, and keeping things organized. I cook, I clean up, and I show up on time. I’d love to support your family – let’s talk!

Booked by 4 families in Olema, CA

Hello dear families! My name is Daniela. FYI My middle name is Lucero :) not sure how to change my name on my profile for my first name Daniela but it’s still me! (Not available from the 27th through the 31st of January, 2025.) I’m from Colombia and I’m 25 years old. My native language is Spanish and I am fluent in English. I also completed 4 years of university in Colombia. I was studying a major in foreign languages French and English preparing to be a teacher. I am a very responsable, loving, patient, and organized person. I love spending time with children. I was an au pair for 2.5 years. I lived with a family in Novato, CA for 2 years taking care of her lovely daughter since she was 1.5 yo and I’m still in contact with them. Lmk if you’d like to talk to them as a reference. Also lived in Chicago for 6 months with a family of two kids ( toddler boy and 7yo Girl). I have a little sister, she is eleven years younger than me so I use to take care of her since she was a baby. I was able to feed her, play with her, do her laundry and change her diaper. I’ve volunteered in the past at a rural elementary school in Colombia helping children with class activities, assessment support, classroom preparation and behavior management. At university I did tutoring for 1st semester students in French and English. I was in charge of preparing a 1 hour class with activities and quizzes. That was actually fun, I felt like a real teacher. I was also part of the dance club back in high school and college, I love dancing!! My responsibilities have included: •Driving the kids to school, museums or playgrounds. •Pick up and drop off from/to school. •Making lunch or dinner for children. •Doing different activities like crafts, painting, and dancing. I Love doing art! And of course playing children’s favorite games or sports. •Help with homework occasionally. •Tidying up the children's room or playrooms. I’m very good at organizing. Looking forward to connecting with you <3 Best, Dani

Booked by 6 families in Olema, CA

I have worked in the professional nanny industry for close to fifteen years. Before that, I worked as an occasional babysitter and camp counselor. I’m certified in first aid and infant/child/adult CPR. I have an undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies (social science concentration) from The Catholic University of America. As well as a graduate certificate in human services from Wilmington University. I’m a patient and empathetic person. I think children have a contagious sense of wonder and happiness. They truly make the world a better place. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting jobs outside my regular nanny position. I look forward to hearing from you!

$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Erlinda. I live in San Rafael California. I am a NCS, I have had the privilege of working for the last family for the past 4.5 years. My primary responsibilities included childcare ( infancy through toddler years, including twins) and everything related to the babies. My last family described me: from the childcare prospective - she is proactive, hard working, creative, resourceful and patient. I t is clear that she loves our children and looks after them as though they are her own. She has gone the extra mile wen our kids have been sick or during the family emergencies wen we (the parents) have had to leave unexpectedly and we have always felt nothing but secure about the safety and well-being of our kids under her care. (if you want to hear more about my recommendation letter that my actual family described me contact me and I am happy to share and provide the contact) From the Eldercare perspective, I have an excellent recommendation too as a domestic care taker, house keeper, pet keeper, and personal aide. That family described me: As a compassionate individual, I give truly heartfelt attention to personal and house- tending needs. I am happy to provide the contact information to these references.

“I have the opportunity and privilege to work with Erlinda Esparza whom I have for 7 years. When we first met I was immediately impressed with her abilities. During our time together, she displayed such talents as Childcare, Elder Care, the best Housecleaning, Cooking, Gardening, getting Groceries, Dog Walking and she sometimes takes someone to the Hospital or any other emergency. Not too long ago, I needed a driver to take me to a hospital. Erlinda left her family dinner, took me to the hospital, stayed there for 4 hours and drove me home. When we began working together, her understanding was far more than I was expecting. She is a joy to work with because of her can-do positive attitude and valued not just by myself but by her peers who often relied on her to get the job done. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 415-472-4722. Yours truly, Carol Wells”

Booked by 1 family in Olema, CA

My name is Dorisiya, and I have extensive experience working with and caring for children. I'm a music teacher and teach privately and in groups, and I'm also a part time nanny. I earned my Masters degree from Boston Conservatory and lived there for a while before moving to the Bay Area. Currently, I teach at the Maud Powell String Institute in Novato, CA and babysit part time. Previously, I was a part-time caregiver for Care.com and College Nannies/Sitters. I work with all ages. Additionally, I am a pet sitter and offer in-home visits or walks. I have 2 years of experience as a licensed cat sitter and am currently dog sitting through the Rover app. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns, and I'll be happy to answer those. I am taking assignments both in Marin County and San Francisco as I split my time there. Thanks! Sincerely, Dorisiya

“Dori was great - took care of our two cats while my family was out of the country. She went really above and beyond when one of our cats seemed to be be sick, even offering to go back to our place multiple times to check on her. Great communication. Really nice to find someone you can trust - would love to work with her again. ”
