Diana 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child
$35 per hour for 1 child
About Me I have 5 years of experience working with children, including after-school programs where I supported students with activities, learning, and development. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and very patient when helping children or families learn new skills. I have built great relationships with the families I’ve worked with and always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. Outside of work, I love to dance, work out, ride my bike, bake, cook, and take walks with my dog.
“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! She took amazing care of our 5-year-old, handling the entire bedtime routine, putting our child to bed, and even feeding our dog. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and caring. Our child absolutely loves her and always looks forward to seeing her. Her bedtime routine is amazing: calm, organized, and comforting, which made evenings so much easier for us as parents. A huge plus for our family is that Diana speaks Spanish, which has been wonderful since our child is learning the language. We really appreciated the extra exposure and encouragement in such a natural way. We always felt confident leaving our child in her care and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and loving babysitter. We will book her again for sure. Thank so much Diana!”
Tori $35 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I’m Tori! So lovely to connect. A little about my experience: I have 4 years of nannying experience with the same family - two kids under 11 (7-11). The kids had packed schedules (a more robust social calendar than I) and I loved helping them hone their talents, taking them to and from activities, and helping with homework. I find it fun and energizing to play and listen to and create with the kids. I also have 3 nephews ages 1, 3, & 5 and I’ve babysat them their whole lives. I’m comfortable with babies, toddlers and kid age. A little about myself: I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve been living in the bay for 7 years now since graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill. I have a Bachelors degree in Biology & Psychology with a focus on child development. In my free time I like to do pottery, hike, and swim in the bay. I love pups - please let me pet your dog! I can’t wait to meet your family!
Ana Clara $35 per hour for 1 child
I am a scout master since 2024, a nanny since 2023, have been a babysitter since 2017 and I am an older sister to a girl with autism. I have experience with all ages and I love to be with kids and pets
Ella $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi families! My name is Ella and I am a fairly recent grad from Cal Poly Humboldt, who just moved back to the bay area. I have years of experience babysitting and nannying for all ages of kids and genuinely love working with children in all their unique stages. Whether it's keeping little ones entertained, helping with homework, sticking to routines, or simply being a positive and dependable presence, I strive to make every child feel safe, supported, and cared for. I truly understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their childcare, and I take that responsibility seriously. I enjoy creating fun, engaging experiences while ensuring children's needs and safety always come first. I look forward to connecting with your family!

I am a third grade teacher with fifteen years teaching experience. I work at a public school in Oakland’s Glenview neighborhood. I’m a mama of two kids, ages 17 and 20. I have the summer off and looking for some babysitting gigs!
“Erica was friendly, confident and professional, and she easily got into the swing of things with our two young kids. They had a great time with her, and she sent helpful updates as well so we had a nice evening out.”
