Tori $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Tori! So lovely to connect. A little about my experience: I have 4 years of nannying experience with the same family - two kids under 11 (7-11). The kids had packed schedules (a more robust social calendar than I) and I loved helping them hone their talents, taking them to and from activities, and helping with homework. I find it fun and energizing to play and listen to and create with the kids. I also have 3 nephews ages 1, 3, & 5 and I’ve babysat them their whole lives. I’m comfortable with babies, toddlers and kid age. A little about myself: I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve been living in the bay for 7 years now since graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill. I have a Bachelors degree in Biology & Psychology with a focus on child development. In my free time I like to do pottery, hike, and swim in the bay. I love pups - please let me pet your dog! I can’t wait to meet your family!

Vianca $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Vianca, a warm, caring, and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and young children, and I’m comfortable helping with their daily routines, including meals, diaper changes, naps, bath time, bedtime, and keeping them engaged and entertained. I’m patient, attentive, and I always want children to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I enjoy reading, playing, doing age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, and taking trips to the park or library when appropriate. I understand that every child and family has their own routine and preferences, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and adapt to what works best for your family. My goal is for parents to feel comfortable and confident knowing their children are in good hands. I’m currently looking for occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and would love the chance to meet your family.

Laura $30 per hour for 1 child

- Looking for one time or occasional jobs. Hi! I'm Laura, 26, from Brazil. I'm new to this app but not to childcare! I've been working with children since 2020, when I started teaching (over 9, 000 hours of experience). I've cared for kids of all ages, volunteered with underprivileged children, and worked as an au pair in the U. S., caring for a toddler, a 7-year-old girl, and twin boys. I'm very organized, responsible, and energetic, kids naturally match my energy! I love keeping them active and creative through arts & crafts, story time, baking, outdoor play, and learning activities. I'm CPR & First Aid certified, a good swimmer and driver, and a confident cook who can follow any recipe. I speak Portuguese (native), English (fluent), and Spanish (conversational). I'm always punctual and communicative. I want parents to feel comfortable and know their children are in good hands.

Vitoria $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Vitória, but everyone calls me Vivi. I’m currently based in the Bay Area and I’m offering child care, pet care and householdcare. I have experience with children of various ages. In my home country, I worked in a school caring for and supporting young children in their daily routines, learning, and play. Here in the US, I have two years of daily experience caring for children, and it's something I truly love. I'm patient, responsible, and always ready to create a fun, safe, and loving environment for the little ones. I also have experience caring for pets, such as walking dogs and helping with their daily needs, always making sure that the pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I'm patient, responsible, very affectionate and always ready to create a fun, safe, and loving environment for the little ones. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and proactive, I'd love to connect!
