Dear families, I love being around children, and started babysitting when I was in high school. I’m a warm and friendly person you can trust to take good care of your kid(s). I foster creativity with children through arts and crafts, legos, dancing, playing music and playing games. My experience in caring for children is with infants through school aged kids. I am CPR/AED and First Aid certified. I’m a non smoker with a clean driving record who lives a very healthy lifestyle I am interested in building long lasting relationships with families. My childcare expertise also lies in raising my daughter to become a successful and independent adult, and I do understand the challenges and rewards that parents face. I’m a graduate of San Francisco State University, where I majored in Business Administration with an emphasis in Marketing. I’m also available to help with homework, household chores and pet care. During my free time, I enjoy hiking, painting, reading and spending time with family and friends. Thanks for considering me! I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family soon.

Hi families! I’m Fernanda a warm, reliable, and creative nanny based in Sausalito. I currently care for two wonderful girls (ages 7 and 9) and offer occasional babysitting for other families in the Bay Area. I have a background as a pediatric nutritionist, which helps me support children’s health, learning, and routines in a fun and balanced way. I’ve also worked as a youth leader, planning educational and recreational activities so I love keeping kids active, curious, and happy! Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and full of positive energy. I always make sure children feel safe, loved, and have fun while their parents are away. I’m also comfortable driving, helping with homework, or caring for pets. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter who brings both care and creativity, I’d love to meet your family! 💛

Hi parents! I’ve been in United States since 2019. I came as an au pair and now I’m a college student. All this time I had the pleasure of taking care of kids from different ages: 8 months to 12 years. With the kids I like to read books, paint, play, take them to parks or different places if the parent is comfortable. I’m a person that is very patient, calm, respectful and trustworthy.

“Karen was very friendly and professional, our daughter really enjoyed her! We would definitely hire her again. ”

5 years experience as lead teacher at a Preschool in Fairfax. Associate Preschool Teacher degree with 12 ECE units. I can usually respond within one or two hours.. Patient, calm, ready to play and be of service! Originally from Toronto, I live in Fairfax and have been in the Bay Area for 16 years. My experience looking after children started in the 70’s with my own baby brother, babysitting throughout my teenage years, a young step-son and more recently my teaching work at a Preschool. I love being with all children and playing, helping with homework, reading, art, languages and piano. I look forward to hearing from you!
