Yasmine $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have several years of experience working with kids and currently work at an after-school program with children from TK through 6th grade. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children, helping with homework, planning activities, preparing snacks/meals, and keeping kids entertained and on a routine. I’m CPR/BLS certified and also have a background in healthcare. I’m patient, responsible, outgoing, and genuinely enjoy being around kids. I’m also comfortable with pets, driving to activities or school, and helping out with light household tasks when needed. I’d love to find a family I can build a comfortable and reliable relationship with!

Booked by 1 family in Pleasant Hill, CA

Hello! My name is Yesenia. I’m a proud mom of three wonderful children and a dedicated preschool teacher with over 4 years of experience working in an early childhood education setting. I hold 12 units in Child Development and have a genuine passion for nurturing young minds through play, music, and creativity. I love engaging little ones with nursery rhymes (especially songs by Ms. Rachel!), reading picture books, and doing arts and crafts that spark imagination. Being a child at heart helps me connect naturally with kids in a fun, caring, and safe way. I’m currently available on weekends for date nights and would be happy to provide your family with loving and dependable care.

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

Hi! My name is Nayely and I am 25 years old. I recently graduated with a BA in Psychology at CSU East Bay. I also have an associate’s degree in liberal arts: math and science. I previously worked as behavior technician for autistic children and really enjoyed it. I was able to help kids develop their communication skills. I am a caring, patient and very responsible person. I take great pride in being always on time to anything I do. Growing up in a Hispanic household meant that I often cared for my 4 younger siblings. I also grew up helping my other family with their infants as well. I look forward to building connections with you and your children. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have. Thank you!

“If I could give her more than 5 stars I would. Nayely is an absolute godsend. I was drowning with work and school and she was the biggest help with cleaning. Will definitely rehire ”
