My name is Michele, I'm 39 years old and I live in Napa. I am looking to babysit for date nights, up coming parties, special events, families that are traveling through or I can sometimes be available for one time care (sick days) or mother's helper. I have over 15 years of experience with children, ages 2 months to 5 years old. I love reading, dancing and singing songs with kids! Most importantly, I will teach your child skills at their level including motor & cognitive, "baby" sign language, reading and writing. I can prepare meals if needed, do some light housekeeping and get your child ready for bed time. I have a current TB clearance. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I’m Kelly, and I would love to provide childcare for your family! I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including 6.5 years as a nanny for a family with two children. In that role, I supported their daily routines, helped with schoolwork, and built a warm, trusting relationship with both kids and their parents. Beyond babysitting and nannying, I've worked for 3.5 years at an after-school math and reading program, giving me experience with tutoring and working with kids in both group settings and one-on-one care. I love engaging children through hands-on crafts and games, and I'm passionate about helping kids feel secure, supported, and excited about their day. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and hold a certification from the Nanny Institute. Safety and well-being are always my top priorities, alongside creating a fun, nurturing environment for the children in my care. I look forward to meeting you and the opportunity to support your family!
Hello, my name is Layla, Im 28, and I have a 1-year-old little boy at home. I currently nanny for a family a few days a week, but am looking to make an extra income with the occasional date nights, or out of towners looking for sitters. I have plenty of references and years of experience with different families of various ages. My son is the highlight of my life and I would treat your kids no less. I could make a positive impact on somebody's family, and can also provide reliable pet care if needed. I am very animal friendly. My qualifications include CPR, and First Aid certified. Please feel free to message me for any further questions.
