Kaylee $25 per hour for 1 child

I have a strong caregiving background shaped by years of hands-on experience with children, seniors, and pets. I grew up helping care for my younger sister, who is now 17, as well as several younger cousins, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe, fun environment for kids of different ages. I also have experience in senior care, most meaningfully, I cared for my great-grandpa when he was 92. Supporting him with daily tasks, companionship, and mobility needs, helped me develop empathy, attentiveness, and the ability to stay calm and supportive in sensitive situations. I am also very comfortable with pets. I have two cats and a dog of my own, so I am used to feeding schedules, walks, and playtime. and managing different personalities and energy levels. Overall, I am reliable, compassionate, and easy to communicate with. I am naturally patient detail detail-oriented, and respectful of family routines. whether it is helping with kids, seniors, pets, or household tasks. I bring a positive attitude to caregiving for every role.

Nazrin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nazrin. I’m a lab manager for the Dunn Lab at UCSF Mission Bay. I love working with kids so I also work part-time at Christ Church East Bay. With a background in science, I enjoy tutoring and reading with children to support their vocabulary and development. I have experience caring for school-aged kids, pre-school, and toddlers. I’d be more than happy to look after younger children as well if given a chance/training. I’m reliable, patient, and always strive to create a safe and positive environment where kids can learn and have fun!

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Moraga, CA

Hi! My name is Shirley. I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Registered Nurse based in Berkeley, offering dependable part-time, backup, and date-night childcare. As both a nurse and a mom to a 13-month-old, I understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your child. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while following your family’s established routines and parenting preferences. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities that encourage learning through play, including library story times, outdoor adventures, sensory play, music, crafts, and trips to local parks and zoos. I believe in fostering independence, kindness, and confidence while supporting each child’s social, emotional, and developmental growth. My background as a Registered Nurse, along with my BLS, ACLS, and Neonatal Resuscitation (NRP) certifications, allows me to provide an added level of safety and confidence for families. I’m also the oldest of five siblings and have years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’m available for occasional, recurring part-time, and backup care. My standard rate is $26/hour. For day time care and families who are comfortable with my well-socialized 13-month-old joining us, I offer a discounted rate of $24/hour, providing a wonderful opportunity for age-appropriate parallel play and social interaction. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and discuss how I can best support your childcare needs. I look forward to connecting with you! — Shirley

“Shirley is incredible! Super professional and very charismatic! She knows exactly what she’s doing, would hire again!”
