Hello! my name is Anahita. My birth name is Wendy, and my pops was Wendell. I started using my spiritual name, Anahita in 2000. I grew up on 500 acre farm in Sebastopol. I am an artist, family manager, and also a trained Acupuncturist. I spent a summer studying Waldorf, got my BA from Naropa and my MA from AIMC in Berkeley. I've worked as a nanny for most of my life and have gradually transitioned into doing more house management / family assistant work by helping with the overall flow of the home and less with child rearing. If you could use a second you who pitches in and can drive, look no further! Afternoons preferred, but open. Also available for on-call care.
“Wendy has such a gift for taking care of children!! Such a treat to have her sit for us! My kids loved her and did not want her to leave! ”

I have babysat as many as 5 children at one time by myself with no issues. I would love to help you with your babysitting needs and answer any questions you may have.

Hi families! I’m an experienced nanny from Brazil. I’ve been working with children in the U.S. since 2022. I spent 2 years as an au pair and have since worked with several families, caring for kids of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities and date nights. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, meal prep, playtime, homework help, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d be happy to connect!
Hello! My name is Audrey, and I’m excited to get back into babysitting! I’m a Step Down ICU Nurse and also a first time mama to our sweet baby girl. ❤️ I’ve been a nurse for over two years and have several years of previous babysitting experience. I actually used this platform to babysit while I was in nursing school, but I had to step away after moving out of the Bay Area for work. Now that my family and I are officially back to the Bay Area, I’d love to start babysitting again! Since I currently work full-time as a nurse, I’m mainly looking for occasional babysitting opportunities such as date nights, errands, appointments, or when you just need an extra helping hand. My nursing schedule varies from week to week, so I don’t have set availability, but feel free to reach out with the dates and times you need and I’d be happy to see if I can fit them into my schedule. I am comfortable caring for all ages; babies, toddlers, school aged kids.
I’m a 36, originally from Brazil, and have been working with families in the U.S. since 2014. I have over 11 years of experience caring for children from newborns through teenagers. I’m also a certified birth and postpartum doula, with extensive experience in newborn care, routines, and supporting families during the postpartum period. Alongside childcare, I genuinely enjoy keeping homes clean, organized, and running smoothly. I’m naturally organized, dependable, and attentive, and I value creating a calm, nurturing environment for both children and parents. Feel free to reach out, I’d love to connect! Laisa
