I am A'kila [Uhh-kee-luhh]. What I love most about caregiving is having the opportunity to engage with a warm and loving family. My style of caregiving comes from a place of authenticity. Especially in regards to clients that are disabled. After caring for severely Autistic non verbal clients, I am privy to basic ABA therapy strategies and concepts. As well as navigating AAC devices. Since 2017, I have been caring for children of all ages, races and abilities from the ages of 3 months to 13 years young. Within that time, I have met hundreds of families from all walks of life. If you are hiring based on my experience, please look at my reviews for further insight. If you would like to set up an interview, I request we exchange references, so I too gain more insight as to your family dynamic with other sitters, which will give me an idea if we are a good match. What do I expect from you as a parent? Respect and open communication. It is my goal to work with, not for, a family. I give and put my time and effort into caregiving professionally. It is imperative, from the very start of our correspondence that we maintain a level of transparency , honesty and respect in an effort for us all to ultimately find a good match and waste as little of our time as possible in the process. Thank You, A'kila

My name is Margarita. I have 12+ years experience as a nanny. I have 5 younger brothers and sisters who I helped take care growing up. Now, I have 2 teenage children of my own. I have been a nanny for several babies and toddlers for years at a time. I have also done a few nanny shares with toddlers. I take the children to the park, library, and walks in the neighborhood. I am comfortable driving, doing arts and crafts, diapering, preparing meals, and getting the children on a schedule both with naps/eating. I maintain communication with the parents throughout the day. I still stay in touch with all of the families that I have worked with in the past and love to continue to watch the children grow up. I am bilingual - Spanish and English. I have taken classes in childhood development, Pediatric first aid, Child/infant CPR AED, Adult CPR AED and Asthma care course.

I have a passion for taking care of children and will care for your children as my own.

With over a decade of dedicated experience in childcare, I bring warmth, reliability, and a deep understanding of children’s needs to each family I work with. I’ve provided one-on-one care as well as support for multiples, including serving as a full-time nanny for three siblings—a newborn, a 2.5-year-old, and a 5-year-old—in New York before returning to the Bay Area. My background also includes roles as an au pair, tutor, teacher, and camp counselor, giving me a well-rounded foundation for connecting with kids of all ages. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology from Occidental College, which enriches my understanding of developmental and cultural dynamics in childcare. Many families I’ve worked with through this site have left glowing reviews, a testament to my commitment to creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children. Please feel free to book any open time on my calendar, as I keep it updated regularly. For any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message—I look forward to meeting you and your family! Booking Policies: --4-hour minimum booking --Not available for jobs that require driving kids --I’m not available for phone interviews but happy to schedule an in-person working interview if you want to meet before booking for a longer gig.

Hi! My name is Mikaela, and I’m a 30-year-old college graduate with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Child Development. I have over 15 years of experience working with children, from helping raise my siblings to serving as a summer camp supervisor for five years. While attending college in Texas, I worked in daycares and volunteered in a hospital maternity ward, which deepened my passion for supporting children and families. Since graduating, I’ve worked as a certified behavioral specialist supporting children on the autism spectrum, and I recently spent two years as a Special Education teacher before moving back to the Bay Area. Currently, I work as a behavioral specialist at a local school and babysit in my free time. Working with children isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I’ve built my career around!
