Victoria $25 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting since I was a teenager. I also have a child myself. I am experienced in taking care of children in any age range. I have worked in ABA therapy and as a substitute teacher and para educator so I am also qualified to work with children with a range of disabilities. I am a psychology major and have a passion for helping others. I believe in a hands on approach when taking care of children and doing activities they enjoy to give them the best experience. I am allergic to animals so I unfortunately would not be able to help in home of pets.

Hi there! My name is Tara. I have my Bachelors in Business Administration and work in the tech field. Since childhood I’ve been passionate about helping children learn and grow.

I have extensive experience working with infants to grade school aged children and also focused my early career working at Challenger School and nannying for various families.

Booked by 2 families in Fremont, CA

Hi! My name is Emma. I’m a graduate student at Santa Clara university pursing a masters in counseling psychology. My experience with children ages 2-18+ began in 2020 as a freshman in college where I worked in the academic counseling office at my community college. From there I worked with 2nd graders in a school setting, supported teachers, was an intern at a head start school, I transitioned to work in the hospital supporting kids ages 5-9 years old with bereavement. Throughout the years my experience has extended from various settings and I look forward to providing a safe and fun environment for your children! I have my own form of transportation, I know how to make simple meals, and I can clean! I enjoy being outside and going on walks! Note: while I do live in Newark I am very used to commuting and don’t mind driving to different locations!
