Hi! My name is Gina, and I’m from Colombia. I’m looking for extra babysitting opportunities. I’m a responsible, respectful, and loving person who truly enjoys helping families and caring for children. Currently, I take care of twin 2-year-olds and their siblings of 4 and 7 years old. I have experience caring for children of different ages — from infants to school-aged kids. In Colombia, I worked with two children, aged 8 and 1, which gave me valuable experience with different developmental stages. I enjoy doing activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and helping with routines. My daily tasks include cooking for the kids, school pick-up, laundry, organizing play areas, and assisting with nap and bedtime routines. I offer child care, and pet care. I also love animals! I have pets myself and I’m very comfortable around dogs and cats. I can help with walking, feeding, and playing with your pets if needed.

“Yinna was prompt and patient with our almost 3 year old. ”

Booked by 4 families in San Rafael, CA

Hi, I’m Quinlan and I have been enjoying babysitting for over 6 years. I moved to California from Chicago after college to pursue a career in outdoor education. Through my experience in childcare, I have worked with children of all ages including infants, and children with developmental and/or physical disabilities. In my free time, you might find me hiking, doing yoga, eating ice cream, or volunteering at the Marine Mammal Center. I am always excited to help out parents and get to know kids even if it means just for a night, morning, or even homework help! I am fully vaccinated and have a reliable car.

“Quinlan is such a rare gem! We are so grateful to have met her. She is able to connect and attune with our toddler in ways others can only dream of. We love how much our toddler has fun and engages with Quinlan and that’s because of the type of care and energy she brings to caregiving. ”

Hi, I’m Maral. I bring over a decade of experience working inside private homes in high-trust roles — supporting families, founders, and executives as a House Manager, Personal Assistant, and childcare provider. When I step into a home, I offer more than supervision. I provide a calm, steady adult presence who can confidently step in as needed — maintaining structure, setting clear expectations, helping with routines, and ensuring children feel secure and supported. My background in household management means punctuality, discretion, strong judgment, and proactive communication are second nature. I understand how much mental load families carry, and I naturally look for ways to create ease and flow within the home. I’m composed under pressure, thoughtful in my decision-making, and warm without being permissive. Parents can step away knowing their home and children are in capable hands. I’m also comfortable in pet-friendly homes and have prior experience in professional dog handling and training. Professional resume and reference sheets available for both childcare and House Manager/PA roles upon request.

“Maral was fantastic—we’d absolutely book her again. She was punctual, warm, and immediately connected with the kids, which made leaving the house feel easy. She kept them engaged with activities and handled dinner and bedtime smoothly. What stood out most was how attentive and calm she was. The kids clearly felt comfortable with her, and the house was in great shape when we got back. Highly recommend to any family looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Nasly $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic nanny with over a year of full-time childcare experience as an au pair. I’ve cared for children from ages 1 to 5, helping with daily routines, meals, playtime, bedtime, and creating a safe and fun environment. I love keeping kids active through outdoor play, sports, yoga, arts and crafts, and creative activities that help them learn while having fun. I also enjoy encouraging healthy habits, curiosity, and independence. As a native Spanish speaker, I’m happy to introduce children to Spanish through games, songs, and everyday conversations if that’s something your family is interested in. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy building meaningful connections with children while supporting their growth and development. I look forward to meeting your family.
