Booked by 7 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi, my name is Maryanne! I’m a local college student working towards my degree in Marine Biology. I worked at the Randall Museum, I got to take care of the museum animals and also teach field trip classes! I’m currently working as a Vet Tech at Veterinary Hospital in the Marina part time! I have about 7 years of babysitting/nannying experience, I’ve worked with children from 2 months-13 years old. Caretaking and teaching is something I truly love doing. I am also CPR/First Aid Certified! I enjoy activities that include arts, crafts, nature, and music! Growing up in San Francisco has given me so much love for the arts as well as the beautiful parks in the area

“Maryanne is great! She arrived early and immediately jumped into play with my preschooler. He usually freaks out when we leave, but he was having so much fun with Maryanne already that he didn’t even want to pause to say goodbye 😂 ”

“Anabel is the best nanny that my husband and I could ask for. She’s been with us for over two years now. She’s taken care of our daughter since she was three months old and now that she’s over two years old, she’s going to start going to school to be around other kids more. We appreciate Anabel’s work ethics. As first time parents, we needed a nanny with lots of experience and Anabel has that! She has great energy and attitude and it’s very easy and pleasant to have her around. We trust her with our daughter more than anyone else. I highly recommend Anabel.”

Booked by 4 families in Brisbane, CA

I started nannying after leaving my job as a TV producer when my son was born in 2004. Since then I've cared for numerous newborns, babies, and toddlers, including several sets of twins. The last few years I've had the joy of nannying my niece's twin boys who just turned 4. As preemies, they required specialized round-the-clock care that I was privileged to be part of. Now they're healthy, happy, and enjoying preschool, so my time has freed up and I'd love to share it with other babies and little ones. Most recently I’ve cared for a new set of twin boys, in addition to two separate 4 month old girls. Because I’m not looking for full time work, my schedule is often flexible. One of my hobbies is photography, so you can expect plenty of photos of your little one throughout our time together.

“Bonita is so wonderful! She watched our daughter Olive starting from when she was just three months old—we were nervous to have someone besides us take care of her so young, but Bonita is so good with babies and made us feel comfortable immediately. She’s incredibly reliable, flexible, and just a really kind and warm person. Can’t recommend her enough!”
