Leslie $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Leslie, and I'm a warm, reliable sitter with 2-3 years of experience caring for children and pets. My goal is to ensure a safe, fun, and happy environment for everyone in your family. I specialize in caring for school-aged children and pre-teens, focusing on activities that match their energy and interests. I love encouraging creativity with arts and crafts, getting active by playing sports, and fostering imagination through reading books. I'm happy to assist with homework, manage after-school routines, and prepare simple, healthy meals. I am committed to making sure your children feel secure, engaged, and well-cared for while you're away. I have a great fondness for animals and experience caring for a variety of pets, including both big and small dogs, as well as cats. Whether your dog is a tiny terrier or a large lab, or your cat needs quiet cuddle time, I provide attentive care that meets their specific needs. This includes walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure they get plenty of affection. I'm comfortable with animals that shed and will always treat your pets with the love and respect they deserve! I look forward to meeting your family and discussing how I can provide the best support for your home!

Jermyiah $20 per hour for 1 child

I have work as an Elementary teachers assistant for the last two years. I’m currently in the process of receiving my para educator certification. I love working with kids I find that I can communicate with them very easily using not only the tools i’ve learned from past jobs but with some of the tools I’ve learned through my younger siblings who have communication disabilities. I can take small pets such as dogs and cats. I also help coach a rugby team so I think i’ve been able to master patience and understanding with anyone honestly.

Hi! My name is Lola, and I love working with kids of all ages.

I’m responsible, patient, and energetic, and I always make sure the children I watch are safe, happy, and engaged. I enjoy spending time outside, doing arts and crafts, and having dance parties! I am also happy to help out with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I love dogs and cats, and I’m also an EMT and CPR certified. I’d love the chance to support your family and provide a safe and fun environment for your kids! Best, Lola

Hi there! My name is Samantha and I am currently a 25 year old nursing student! I'm a caring and dependable sitter who truly loves spending time with kids! With babysitting experience going back to my teen years (plus lots of auntie duties with my nieces and nephews!), I bring tons of enthusiasm, patience, and creativity to every sit and have genuine love for what I do.

AnnieElizabeth $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a responsible and caring 32-year-old with over 20 years of experience in childcare, pet care, senior care, and household tidying/management. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old, and I was a nanny for about 5 years to four kids who were ages 2-9 when I started working for them. I love deep conversations and interesting facts, and have experience with neurodivergent and highly intelligent kids. I provide a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment, helping kids learn about and grow in the world in their own unique ways through outdoor exploration, dance, reading, crafts, museums, and imaginative play! I also love animals and have a lot of experience in pet care. I have a degree in psychology, including coursework in child development. I also have my 200-hr yoga teaching certification, am in a 300-hr yoga therapy training with a lot of nutrition knowledge, and am about to go back to school (in the Bay) to become a nurse. My cpr/first aid certification expired in Jan 2026, but I am happy to renew if requested.
