Hi there! I'm Toni, and I’ve spent over a 20 years working with kids and families both as a social worker and a soccer coach. I absolutely love creating spaces where children feel safe, happy, and excited to explore. While I’ve got a strong background in understanding kids’ developmental needs, I also believe in the power of play and laughter. Whether we're kicking a soccer ball around or diving into a fun activity, I’m here to help your little ones grow and shine.
Hi my name is Sarala! Right now I am looking for summer babysitting jobs before I head off to college. I am mainly looking for part-time child care work, but I am also able to run errands and drive children. I am extremely organized and can do "mothers helper" tasks to make your house run smoothly. I have extensive experience with kids. My previous jobs with kids include being a babysitter, a nanny, an assistant teacher at a preschool and a camp counselor. Some of my favorite things to do with kids include art projects, baking, and going to the park. I have my own dog and am super comfortable around them. I have experience with dog walking as well.
I’ve been working with families for over 15 years, providing care that’s reliable, warm, and tailored to each household’s needs. Whether it’s senior care, pet sitting, or helping with household tasks, I approach everything with attention to detail and genuine care. I love building trust with the families I work with and creating an environment where everyone feels supported. I have a clean driving record, reliable transportation, and flexible availability for occasional or part-time work.
Hello! My name is Maya, and I am grateful for the opportunity to be considered to work with your family. I am 24 years old and have been caring for children since my teenage years, with over three years of professional experience. Since 2022, I have worked at a camp serving children with serious medical conditions, where I have developed strong caregiving, communication, and safety-focused skills. I am comfortable working with children of all ages but have a soft spot for infants and toddlers. I currently live in Marin, hold a bachelor’s degree in public health, and am working toward a career in the healthcare field. I hold a valid driver's license and own a car. Additionally, I have worked as a lifeguard for the past five years and am certified in CPR/First Aid.
With over 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, I offer a patient and friendly approach. I also have my own 13yo. I am comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. I will carefully follow your household rules. I am happy to engage in board games, puzzles, legos, pretend play and outdoor games that promote learning and physical activity. I prioritize open communication with parents, providing regular update, as requested. I am CPR and First Aid certified, formerly a Red Cross volunteer. I am an active community volunteer at my child's school and the library. I have a car and am comfortable with pets as we have a havapoo. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and passion for childcare to your family.
