Hi! My name is Colette, and I'm currently a graduate student at Stanford. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 16. My responsibilities have included transportation to and from school, supervised activities, cooking, and homework help. I'm an experienced tutor from elementary to high school with a specialization in writing and English. I'm passionate about helping children love learning and feel confident in their skills! I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I enjoy cooking and baking, and I am happy to aid in preparing meals or teaching cooking and baking skills.

Warm, playful, and dependable caregiver with 18+ years of experience caring for children of all ages, including infants. After recently working on a developmental milestone project, I felt called back to what I truly love most — helping children grow, learn, feel deeply cared for, and making everyday life feel lighter and more supported for parents too. I love bringing warmth, laughter, creativity, music, outdoor adventures, and calm positive energy into a home. I’m naturally very hands-on and happy to help wherever needed — whether that’s nurturing little ones through developmental milestones, engaging in playful learning, preparing simple healthy meals, tidying up child-related spaces, helping with routines, or creating a smoother flow for the whole family. Families often describe me as loving, reliable, helpful, positive and fun with their children. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified, have my own reliable car, and speak English, Spanish, and French (plus some Portuguese and Hindi). Currently looking for one more kind, respectful, communicative part-time family who values warmth, teamwork, and thoughtful childcare. P.S: While I was advised to charge $50hr. I am ok with negotiating lower for the right family who really needs it

Hi! I’m Katy. I work full-time in HR and Operations during the week, so I’m mainly available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting. I graduated from UC Davis with bachelor’s degrees in Political Science and English and have been babysitting on weekends for over 10 years. During that time, I’ve had the opportunity to care for children of different ages. I also grew up with two younger siblings and worked in an after-school program at the Boys & Girls Club of the Peninsula, where I gained even more experience creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. I’ve always enjoyed being around children and getting to know their different personalities. I believe every child is different, so I try to get to know who they are and meet them where they’re at. Whether that means playing games, reading stories, doing crafts, or helping them get ready for bed, my goal is to help them feel safe, heard, comfortable, and have a good time while you’re away. I’d describe myself as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your kids, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I also like keeping parents updated while they’re out so they can enjoy their time knowing their kids are safe and doing well. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter for a date night, weekend plans, or just an occasional event, I’d be happy to help! I look forward to meeting you and your family.
