Hi! My name is Liana and I’m looking for one-time and occasional babysitting jobs. I’m a Physician Assistant student at Stanford University and am looking to make some extra money while I’m in school. I have always loved working with kids. I graduated with a B.S in Neuroscience from Santa Clara University and I hope to work in pediatrics as a PA. I have past experience as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), pediatric medical assistant, daycare volunteer, and math/reading tutor.

Hi! I’m Xeriz, a 23-year-old with a passion for caring for children. I’ve worked as a nanny in different cities over the years, and now, as an ABA behavior technician, I love supporting kids, especially those with special needs. I’m friendly, patient, and adaptable, always making sure to create a fun, safe, and loving environment for children. I also enjoy meal prepping and can easily tailor meals to your family’s needs, whether it’s keto, vegan, low-carb, or protein-focused. I’ve lived with families as their nanny before, so I’m used to adjusting to different routines and can do the same for you. Music is another big part of my life and something I’m truly passionate about :) I sing and play multiple instruments, and I’m always happy to share that with the kids through fun musical activities or even teaching them to play if they’re interested. Now that I’m back in NorCal, I’m excited to focus on what I love most which is helping children grow and making a positive impact on your family’s life!
