Hello! My name is Rowan and I currently work as a behavioral specialist in special education at a public high school. I have been babysitting since my early teens and have worked with children of all ages. I am happy to do any activities that your child is most interested in and passionate about! Whether that be crafting, outdoor adventures, putting on at-home recitals, or wherever their imagination takes them. I am willing to do all parts of your child’s routine, including cooking, bathing, cleaning, homework help, or whatever is required for your child to be happy, healthy, and safe!

Hi, my name is Amy, I’m a mom to a 8 month old and I have been working with children professionally for the past 3 years. Through past work with a babysitting agency, I gained valuable experience working with a variety of age groups and family dynamics. I am very comfortable engaging with children, from newborns to toddlers and even teens! Whether you’re going out for date night, running errands or simply need some time to decompress, I’m here to provide reliable and engaging care for your family! I don’t have any professional experience providing household services, but I take direction well. I’m very open to constructive feedback. My goal is to make sure things are done to your specifications every time. I am comfortable working in homes with pets! Will renew CPR/ First Aid certification upon request *My child will not be present with me while providing any services*

“Amy was great with our child. She was patient, attentive, and very accommodating throughout the time she spent with him. She kept him engaged with activities, and by the end he didn’t want her to leave—which says a lot! We would definitely be happy to have Amy babysit for us again.”

Booked by 2 families in Alviso, CA

Hi there! My name is Janna and I just graduated from CSUEB with my BA in Sociology. I have been babysitting in a casual familial setting since I was a tween and am looking to expand my services into a more professional environment. I offer child care to children from 6 months old to tween ages (including twins). I can also provide household services including cleaning, laundry, cooking, & running errands if needed. I have a driver's license and car if children need to be picked up or dropped off from extracurriculars or any appointments. I am happy to curate interactive and creative activities for kids to enjoy such as art, games, and active time. I love caregiving as it is so fulfilling to be a part of a child's journey into the world. I'm excited to hear back from you.

“We love Janna! I hired her to be my nephew’s after school caregiver. She has completed 3 bookings with us. She is so amazing, she’s on time, a good communicator, has a great attitude and my nephew always is sad when she has to leave. She’s very engaging with young children and has a fun approach to childcare. She also is great at ensuring he completes his homework and maintains the schedule, despite his hyperactive behaviors. We’re always looking forward to a fun day with Janna!”
