Booked by 3 families in Albany, CA

Hi! My name is Rebecca, I am 24 years old, and a recent graduate from UC Berkeley. I currently work part time as a Partnership Coordinator for the childcare non-profit Nurture, and as a behavioral class aide to autistic elementary students. I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified. I offer child care, senior care, and household services. I believe that play-based learning in a structured and nurturing environment is the key to healthy childhood development. 🌱 I love arts and crafts, can help with homework, and can drive to/from school. I love cooking and am happy to work with animals as well! 🐾 I have extensive experience in child care as I have been a family babysitter since I was 15 years old. I have also worked through IHSS as a caregiver for a high support needs autistic woman with an intellectual disability. These experiences have taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of accommodating different learning styles. Additionally, I have experience caring for an elderly family member with dementia, which then transitioned into end-of-life care. As an undergrad, I was a dedicated member of the Sage Mentorship Project. I served as a mentor and Program Director for students at Sylvia Mendez Elementary and Fairmont Elementary. I’m excited to meet you and your family! ☺️

Hi! I’m Iliana — a caregiver from San Francisco with hands-on experience caring for twins and toddlers. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids of all ages. I also offer light housekeeping, after-school pickup’s. I have my own transportation and am comfortable navigating around the city. I’d love to support a family looking for dependable childcare with a positive attitude and strong communication.

I'm calm, positive, and responsible (and French). I like working with kids because they see the world in a way that makes it more beautiful. I love their curiosity, intelligence, and joy in little things. I'm looking for a part-time job (9 a.m. -4 p.m. ) since I have a little girl who needs her mom too, with a family where I can build a warm, trusting relationship with the children. I started working with kids when I moved to San Francisco a year ago. I picked up a 3 and a 5-year-old from school and helped with their workbooks, and looked after two girls, aged 2 and 4, with drawing, reading, and role-play. In May, I welcomed my own baby girl, my most full-time job yet! In my spare time, I like to walk, read, travel, and see friends. As a mom, I take your children's safety and well-being as seriously as you do. My skills: speaking French with kids through songs, books, and games; creative play like role-play, drawing, and baking; patience and reliability.

“Claire was amazing with our 13 month old, he absolutely loved her! Would definitely hire her again”

Cyrus $30 per hour for 1 child

Hiya!!!! My name is Ashé (Cyrus) 🤓👋🏾 I’m a calm caregiver with 2+ years of childcare experience with kiddos aged 3–14. I am certified in CPR + First Aid training for children, infants, and adults, Mandated Reporter certified, Registered Behavior Technician, and Physical Safety certified. I’ve got a background in theater so I love jumping into play! Making up stories, going with the flow, matching high energy, or calmly reading are all facets of the environments I like to create. My approach to childcare is compassion-based and neurodiversity-informed and I seek to ensure all kids under my care feel safe, understood, and engaged! Hope to talk soon and please let me know if there are any questions I could answer! 😁
