Laura $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello I'm Laura. Recently returned from living abroad for several years. I am an educator and creative person by trade. I offer child care, senior care and pet care. Before becoming a teacher and trainer I babysat, took care of my elderly father and held various office jobs. Currently, between teaching jobs in public and private sector (primary , secondary and adult learners) I also help care for my elderly mother. I grew up with a dog and cats. Therefore, I'm comfortable caring for both children, seniors and pets. I also love animals. I have two cats and I'm not allergic to dogs, I love them too. When I have free time I volunteer, write, create artistic cards and try to learn something new every three -six months. I also use public transport to move around. If my profile fits your needs reach I'd love to hear from you. A presto, Laura

Gabriela $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Pittsburg, CA

Hi Families! My name is Gaby, and I’m currently offering occasional nanny/babysitting and mother’s helper support for families who need reliable, experienced extra hands. I am a stay-at-home mom and a professional nanny with over 8 years of dedicated childcare experience, specializing in infants and toddlers. Caring for children has always been a true passion of mine, and I’ve had the privilege of building long-term relationships with families who value consistency, trust, and quality care. My caregiving style is Montessori-inspired, with a strong focus on independence, creativity, and emotional security. I prioritize little to no screen time and believe in hands-on, engaging activities that support motor development, language growth, and confidence-building. Our time together often includes sensory play, music, outdoor exploration, practical life skills, and age-appropriate learning experiences. As a mom myself, I deeply understand how important it is to feel fully comfortable with the person caring for your child. I strive to create a calm, nurturing, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I am currently available for occasional care, date nights, backup care, and mother’s helper support. I work independently and am committed to providing focused, attentive care tailored to your family’s needs. I look forward to connecting and learning how I can support your family’s needs. Warmly, Gaby
