My name is Azure and I am a Nanny from beautiful Sonoma County. With over five years of experience caring for children—primarily ages 4 and under—and three years supporting elderly clients, I bring a calm, compassionate presence to every family I work with. For the past three years, I’ve been a full-time nanny for one family, supporting their daughter’s growth from toddlerhood into preschool. My responsibilities have included meal prep, potty training, school pickup, homework help, and light housekeeping, providing dependable, all-around support for busy parents. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum and bring a patient, individualized approach to each child’s unique needs. My background in elderly care, including hospice and dementia support, has deepened my empathy and taught me the importance of making people feel seen, heard, and valued—principles I bring into every aspect of childcare. I’m dedicated, dependable, and passionate about helping children feel safe, confident, and cared for in their everyday routines.
Hi, I’m Jazmine! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable childcare provider with four years of experience working with the City of Healdsburg’s Early Childhood Education (ECE) Program. I also provide babysitting services for guests staying at Hotel Healdsburg, h2hotel, Harmon Guest House, and The Madrona in Healdsburg, CA. I take pride in providing families with reliable, high-quality childcare so parents can relax and enjoy their time knowing their children are in caring hands. I truly enjoy working with children and creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for. I especially love arts and crafts, playing games, and finding fun, age appropriate activities to keep children entertained.
I’m a caring and dependable babysitter with 7 years of experience looking after children of all ages. Along with professional experience, I regularly babysit my nieces and nephews, which includes school pick-ups, homework help, and fun activities like going to the park or doing creative projects together. I love keeping kids engaged, active, and safe while also following each family’s routines and expectations. Families describe me as reliable, patient, and easy to connect with, and I always bring a positive attitude into the home. In addition to childcare, I also have experience fostering cats and volunteering at an animal shelter, so I’m comfortable with pets too. Whether it’s after-school care, evenings, or weekends, I’m flexible to meet your family’s needs. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel cared for and parents have peace of mind.
My name is Natalie, a bilingual (English and French and learning Spanish) Windsor High senior with over six years of childcare experience mentored by my nanny’s who are 30-year industry veteran. Caring for others is a gift of mine I have had since a young age! My experience in student government, serving on a school board and more makes me wise beyond my years and very responsible. As an active figure skater and dancer, I have plenty of energy to foster an environment that prioritizes outdoor play, fun quality engagement and creative crafts, though I am equally patient and calm when caring for infants and any child that needs it. I am a licensed driver and capable cook, happy to assist with school pickups, errands, and meal prep as well. As a lifelong pet owner, I have extensive experience with house and dog sitting, ensuring your furry friends and home are perfectly cared for. I also provide compassionate, non-medical senior care and am a dedicated, mature professional ready to support your household before I head to college this fall.
Hello, My name is Lauryn, I’m 26 years old, and I have been a babysitter/nanny for over 8 years now working with children of all ages! I am passionate about helping kids learn and grow while making sure to still have fun along the way. I graduated from Sonoma State University in 2020 with my Bachelor’s in Business Management. I also just completed my Multiple Subject Credential to become an elementary school teacher! My current rate is $22 per hour for one child that is *above* 3 years of age and $25 per hour for one child that is *under* 3 years of age. I have plenty of references that I can provide for you as well. A majority of my experience comes from making local connections in my community. I can't wait to meet you and your family! - Lauryn
