Hello! My name is Acacia and I’m CPR certified! I’m currently a college student. I’m attending Los Medanos College in the Fall and I’m majoring in Early Childhood Education because I’m pursuing a career in kindergarten teaching. I’m trying to gain experience for my future career as well as save up money for school! I love watching children, they tend to like me a lot due to my bright pink hair (haha) and since I’m younger than most people, I can keep up with the chaotic energy of children! My responsibilities included facilitating age-appropriate activities for children between the ages of 1-10 while maintaining safety, communicating effectively with parents, and providing information on daily activities and addressing any concerns promptly. I also have experience in working with cats, I have 3 cats of my own that I take care of when I’m not in school so I can watch cats. I have experience working with dogs, I have walked around ~7 dogs before all ranging in different sizes!
Hi! My name is Sasha, and I offer childcare, pet care, and household assistance, including cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I enjoy helping families make their everyday lives a little easier. Whether it’s keeping children entertained, caring for pets, preparing meals, or helping around the house, I’m happy to lend a hand. I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and attentive to each family’s individual needs. I understand the importance of creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment. I’m flexible with different household needs and look forward to connecting with families who could use an extra helping hand!
HII! My name is Ebany. I am 19 years old and currently a nursing student. I am open and available for a babysitting job. I gained experience working with younger and older children by working with my mom since I was 7 years old in her home daycare and from my most recent job working with a care provider company where I have been babysitting kids. I’m very gentle, patient, kind, and hardworking. I’m willing to care for any children of age. I would be more than happy to set up an interview so that way you can get to know me better , I look forward to caring for your young ones! Thank you!
Based in Sac 📍 Travel often to the Bay Area Hello there my name is Alia! I am a 30 year old communications professional. My hobbies include reading, writing, practicing my Spanish, bike riding, soccer, arts and crafts, and finding new movies to watch! I have over 4 years experience of sitting ranging from 6 months- to age 17. I have no problem coming to you. My favorite part about babysitting is getting to spend time and have fun with the amazing children. I believe every child is unique and different and it’s so fun getting to know all of them and thinking of new activities. I develop close friendships with parents and children so that we become in a way one big family. I strongly prefer cash, Zelle or Venmo. I do charge for the entire time booked, even if you arrive home earlier than the agreed end time. LATE POLICY: If you think you are going to be late or would like to stay out later, please send me a text or phone call an hour beforehand. If not notified, an overtime charge will be applied to double the time you are late. CANCELLATION POLICY: No fee for cancellation up to 48 hours notice. Under 48 hours notice will be charged a 50% cancellation fee. Under 24 hour notice will be charged full fee.
“She was great! She was great with 2 kids, and she was so helpful around the house. We’re looking forward to more opportunities to have her support us.”
I am an HR Professional with a bachelor’s degree in Business yet part of me wishes I had an educational background to work with children. So babysitting gives me the opportunity to do what I enjoy the most! I was an urbansitter nanny all throughout college in San Francisco as my one and only job for 5 years. I cared for children of all ages, from 3 months - 14 years old. My long term families were for children ages 1-5 and 11-14. In addition to my own work experience, I grew up at home with a family childcare, thus I am comfortable being around up to 8 children at once since my mother is a licensed childcare provider. I currently babysit a 4 year old once a week (Jan 2024 - today) My favorite part about babysitting is teaching children through play. It’s rewarding to see a child grow and see how much they learn along the way. I have a tight schedule but if I am available to babysit on weekends and weekday evenings. I have a car and I am also fluent in Spanish.
“Finding a babysitter you can trust implicitly is rare, and finding someone like Ale is an absolute blessing. Ale has been a vital part of our family’s life since 2023, starting when our daughter was 3 years old. Our daughter absolutely adores her, and as parents, that peace of mind is priceless. Beyond how much our daughter loves her, Ale’s professionalism and work ethic are unmatched. She is always on time and completely reliable. She is warm, wonderfully pleasant, communicative, and has an intuition for what kids need in any given moment. What also sets Ale apart is her skill and heart as we navigate being foster parents. Bringing new children into our home means dynamics can shift quickly, but we can always trust Ale. No matter what combination of personalities, emotions, or needs exist on a given day, Ale handles every situation with exceptional skill, patience, and warmth. If you have the chance to hire Ale, do not hesitate for a second. She is a true gem, and any family would be beyond lucky to have her!”
