Natalie 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Santa Rosa, CA

Hi! My name is Natalie and I am currently attending graduate school online. I adore kids and have over 10 years of childcare experience across nannying, daycare, mentoring youth in foster care, and as a Crisis Counselor at a mental health program for teens. I truly enjoy working with any age group, with the majority of my experience being with ages 2-17. My favorite thing about working with younger kids is getting to witness their imagination and creativity, and for older kids, I love to witness them come into their true identity as they find their place in the world. While my personal approach to childcare is inspired in part by the RIE technique (which emphasizes respect, emotional attunement, independence, and allowing children space for authentic exploration and unstructured play), I have had the opportunity to work with such diverse families that I tend to begin my approach by asking the specific family I am working with what their needs are and what they are wanting from me, as I have received very different answers to those questions over the years! However, I do value time outdoors, limited screen time, and self-directed play. In addition to childcare, I also have extensive experience caring for pets, including cats and dogs, and can hold other tasks such as household chores, errands, transportation, meal prep, homework help, and organization as needed. Families I have worked with often describe me as patient, dependable, communicative, and highly intuitive with children. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful long-term relationships with both kids and parents, and creating environments where children feel safe, respected, and free to be themselves!

“Natalie kept my 2 kids (ages 2&4) entertained all day. She is warm, friendly, smart and caring. She brought some toys to immediately draw in my kids and distract from mom and dad leaving for the day. Highly recommend!”

Booked by 2 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hello- My name is Kyla. I am a young, energetic, and responsible 26-year old who loves to engage and play with kids and animals. I am currently looking for In between work as I was just laid off due to the economy! I’m looking for additional income in these hard times. I am offering senior, child care, transportation to/from school, or pet care. I am the oldest of three, with a ten year age gap between my siblings. I’ve spent many years caring for my siblings, as well as nannying for multiple families through my adolescence and my young adulthood. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition, I’ve provided drop off/pickup transportation for school, cooked meals, packed lunches, and taken children to recreational activities and social events. I am also an animal lover with a cat and dog. Growing up , my family fostered many animals which ignited my passion to rescue and care for all animals.

“Kyla was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely funny — the kind of sitter who instantly puts both kids and parents at ease. She and my 7-year-old had a full day of fun: they completed a CrunchLabs kit, built a LEGO set, headed to the playground, and even came home to do over an hour of gooey science experiments. My child was thrilled from start to finish. Kyla is truly a gem, and we can’t wait to have her back!”

Azure $28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azure and I am a Nanny from beautiful Sonoma County. With over five years of experience caring for children—primarily ages 4 and under—and three years supporting elderly clients, I bring a calm, compassionate presence to every family I work with. For the past three years, I’ve been a full-time nanny for one family, supporting their daughter’s growth from toddlerhood into preschool. My responsibilities have included meal prep, potty training, school pickup, homework help, and light housekeeping, providing dependable, all-around support for busy parents. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum and bring a patient, individualized approach to each child’s unique needs. My background in elderly care, including hospice and dementia support, has deepened my empathy and taught me the importance of making people feel seen, heard, and valued—principles I bring into every aspect of childcare. I’m dedicated, dependable, and passionate about helping children feel safe, confident, and cared for in their everyday routines.

Mikaylah $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mikaylah, I am currently a college student majoring in liberal studies striving to be an elementary teacher one day. I have about 4 years experience working with school aged children. I taught swim lessons to young kids ages 2-16. I have 2 years worth of instructional aide experience at a few different elementary schools. I also have lots of babysitting experience working with children ages 1-10. I love working with kids because they bring so much joy to the environment, I am more than happy to watch your kids on a date night for parents or just any occasion you have planned/need to get out of the house! I am very much an animal person, I love cats, dogs, turtles, most likely any kind of animal I love! I would more than happy to just be an occasional babysitter or something a little more serious if needed. I am just looking for some extra experience in childcare while I continue my education and I would love to look after with your kiddos :)
