Hi, my name is Liz! I’m 22 years old, located in the San Pablo, Ca area. I am a mom of 1 adventurous little girl, currently 2 years old! I have experienced with newborns, toddlers, and other children up to the age of 10. I love taking kids on walks to parks, and the zoo! I have experience with both morning and evening routines, prepping and serving breakfast/snacks, bathing, administrating medicine/vitamins, setting up dinner, winding down, bath time, bedtime, and of course play time! I am more than happy to answer any questions your family might have. I work best with routine and clear instructions, but of course I understand the hectic side of routines with kids :) Id love to chat over the phone or facetime if you’re comfortable. You can reach me at five one zero seven seven six six four two two. Thank you for your time and consideration :) - Liz :)
I’m Rafika, I have five years working with children. I am a caring, patient, and dedicated teacher who enjoys supporting children growth and development. I strive to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where every child feels comfortable, secure, and valued. I enjoy helping children explore, learn, and reach their developmental milestones while building trusting relationships with families. In my personal life, I value family, love, kindness, and spending quality time with the people who matter most to me. I enjoy learning new things, growing as a person, and finding ways to bring happiness to others. I believe in being compassionate, responsible, and positive in both my personal life and my career
Hi! My name is Claire and I recently graduated from the University of San Francisco with a Bachelors in communication studies. I have been babysitting since freshman year of high school and also have four years of experience coaching kids soccer both boys and girls ages 5-10. I have loved being able to share my love for soccer while coaching and really enjoy babysitting. I have grown up with dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them as well. I studied abroad in Italy in 2023 where I interned at a local cooking school and cooking is one of my favorite things to do!
For two decades, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and creating enriching environments for children. My passion stems from witnessing their incredible growth and development. I enjoy using my creative and imaginative personality to engage children in outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and caring up to two children, ages newborn to to seven. I maintain open communication with parents, providing updated through verbal discussions or text, always respecting your preferred method. My background includes Early Childhood Education coursework, First Aid training, and CPR Training. I'm also happy to help with cooking and crafts. I hope to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family.
I’am a calm, attentive, and responsible babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I focus on creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and engaged. I’m patient and adaptable, whether that means helping with homework, organizing fun and creative activities, or simply sticking to a child’s routine so they feel secure. I pay close attention to details—like dietary needs, bedtime schedules, and house rules—and I take those seriously. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure to keep parents informed and follow their preferences closely. At the same time, I bring a warm, friendly energy so kids see me as someone they can trust and have fun with, not just someone in charge. Overall, I aim to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children feel confident with.
