Find a last-minute babysitter in Belmont, CA

I recently moved to San Mateo and I’m currently looking for a nanny position closer to my new location. My name is Amanda and I have over 8 years of experience caring for children of all ages.

I am currently a PhD graduate student at Stanford University, obtaining my degree in stem cell biology. I am offering services with child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I have 6 years of experience nannying and raising children 4 years of age and older (both boys and girls), with experience babysitting toddlers aged 2 and up. I love spending time with kids on activities and crafts that they love to do - everything from playing dolls to arts and crafts to playing catch. I can also provide help with homework. I have experience working with children with dyslexia, and working on reading and flashcards to help improve their reading skills. Additionally, I have several years experience providing caregiving to an elderly adult with dementia. I can help with daily tasks, appointments, meal preparation, or just being a companion. I also love animals! I have owned dogs, cats, horses, and every small animal you can think of. I can provide housework and help with organizational tasks - I love organizing! I am CPR and pediatric first aid certified. I’m learning Spanish but still a beginner conversationally.

HI! I'm a mom of three (ages 15, 20, and 23) with 9 years of professional nanny experience, plus 14 years at home raising my own kids. I've cared for every age from newborns to teenagers, and I genuinely love them all. Most of my career has been spent in long-term positions with two families, staying with each of them for several years as their kids grew. My days with kids are active and full. I'm big on outings: the park, the library, music classes, and the zoo. I like creating a home that feels fun and silly, with plenty of music and cooking. I'm also a serious animal lover, so pets in the house are a bonus. Beyond childcare, I'm hardworking and detail oriented, and cleaning and organizing are my specialties. I'm also well versed in food allergies and special diets. I have Celiac Disease myself and follow a strict gluten-free routine, so label-reading and avoiding cross-contamination are second nature to me. I speak conversational Spanish. Not fluent, but enough to hold a real conversation. One practical note: I'm highly allergic to Lavender, so I ask that Lavender scented products not be used in the home. Lavender growing outside is no problem at all. I'm available for occasional sitting. I'd love to hear about your family and whatever you might need. Currently available for occasional date nights and weekends.

I’m a warm, dependable, and upbeat caregiver with 10+ years of experience caring for children from toddlers through school age in both home and classroom settings. As an early childhood educator, I bring a mix of structure, creativity, and lots of heart to every family I work with. I love getting to know each child’s personality and creating a safe, comfortable environment where they can play, explore, learn, and just be themselves. Whether we’re heading outside for an adventure, getting creative with an activity, working on homework, or simply following their usual routine, I’m happy to meet children where they are. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, reliable, communicative, and experienced in building trusting relationships with both children and parents. My goal is always for your kids to feel cared for and for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands.

Hello! I am a Bay Area animal caregiver. I started walking and then boarding & sitting. I love bonding and delivering the best experience curated around your dog’s needs and interests. Looking forward to meeting you!
