Almarah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Almarah and I just graduated from Muhlenberg College with a B.A. in Media and Communications and Theatre. I am offering child care, dog care, and household tasks. I've been working with children since 8th grade, when I began tutoring Sunday School at my synagogue for elementary schoolers. I tutored all throughout high school, where I developed a passion for caring for children, as well as gaining experience in curriculum development and planning activities for children. I've spent a few summers as a camp counselor for children ranging from kindergarten through middle school and am very comfortable with any children in this age range, though I'm willing to care for younger kids as well! I spent last summer driving 12-24 middle schoolers around the bay, so I'm happy to bring your kids to any activities or classes they've got planned! I can cook, clean, do laundry, and run errands. I have the most experience in dog care but am open to working with other pets if I seem like the right fit your family!

I have a deep passion for connecting with children and helping them explore the world. My background includes extensive experience in early childhood education, working with children from one to nine years old, with a particular focus on ages three to six. I hold certifications in First Aid and CPR and specialize in creating engaging outdoor activities, nature crafts, and customized learning experiences. As a responsible and creative caregiver, I foster a supportive environment and have a gentle approach to managing behavior, guiding children to express their emotions constructively. I am happy to provide excellent references and look forward to discussing how I can support your family.

Korinne $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am energetic, creative, mindful, and I enjoy helping others. With 17yrs of professional childcare experience, including running a large after school program at an elementary school via Hayward Public Library, I've been able to help bring siblings together, keep hundreds of Bay Area families reassured of their childcare choice, and teach kids several skills -- including chess, soccer, musical theater, dance, and Spanish. Professional roles: Camp Galileo Team Leader - 3yrs, Beechwood School PreK & Kinder aide - 1 y, Beechwood Substitute Teacher - 2 yrs, Hayward Public Library HSC Supervisor - 3 yrs, MS Spanish & Math tutor - 1 yr, Nanny -7 yrs, Kiddie Corp Childcare - 2 yrs ongoing, Mother's Helper - 1y During childcare I focus on safety, fun, opportunities to learn, outdoor play, and morality. I believe in swapping screen time for interactive activities, the importance of physical health, reflecting on our actions, and high energy fun. My favorite way to spend downtime with kids includes: going outdoors, imaginative play, and crafts -- unless your child likes karaoke!!! You will always get periodical updates if you choose, the kids will always have my full attention, and you can count on an energetic, experienced, detail-oriented, and committed childcare provider. I am open-minded, flexible, and I value communication.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
