Zoya $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, CA
Hi! My name is Zoya. I’m a responsible, patient person who enjoys spending time with children and creating a safe, positive environment for them. I speak three languages and love cooking and baking, and I enjoy doing fun and creative activities with kids. I also have experience working in a senior home, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and strong caregiving skills. I’m happy to help with childcare, homework, simple meals, and light housekeeping. I currently don’t drive, but I am punctual and dependable. My goal is always to make children feel safe, comfortable, and happy.

“I’m happy to recommend Rakshya as a nanny. She has been wonderful with our child and brought such a calm, positive energy into our home. Rakshya spent time reading books, which our child really enjoyed, and it helped encourage learning and imagination. She is very patient—never annoyed, always smiling, and she speaks so politely and kindly. Our child felt comfortable and happy around her. We never asked her to do any specific things but she did everything on her own. She was also always on time and very reliable, which made things much easier for us as parents. One time, my husband didn’t wake up when she arrived, and instead of leaving, she patiently waited for 45 minutes. That really showed her dedication and responsibility. We always knew we could count on her, and we truly appreciated her caring nature. I would definitely recommend Rakshya to any family looking for a caring, dependable, and gentle nanny.”

Hi, I'm Lena! I was born and raised in San Francisco and am now a sophomore at UC Berkeley studying Political Economy and Global Studies with a minor in Business. I love getting kids moving, whether that's a walk to the park, a dance party in the living room, or time outside. I'm very comfortable in the kitchen, so I'm happy to make a healthy snack or dinner and turn cooking into a fun activity. I also love tidying and will make sure the house is in great condition before parents are home! I have a younger sister and I have spent a lot of time babysitting her and her friends. I also have 4 baby cousins that I look after. I have experience with all ages and I am looking for possible reoccurring and one time care jobs. Parents can count on me to be punctual, responsible, in close communication, and to stick to your family's routines. I'd love to meet your family and can't wait to hear from you!
“Really lovely! Punctual, good communication and engaged my son immediately.”
Bella $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I have a lot of babysitting experience, paid and unpaid, from babysitting younger siblings and cousins to neighbors and family friends. I used to tutor kids at the Mathnasium and can defintely help with homework. I’ve also been a court appointed special advocate for a foster child, so kids with challenges do not scare me. I’ve also house-sat and taken care of all types of pets (friendly pets, haha). I graduated from UC Berkeley 2 years ago and am now working as a legal assistant and saving up while I apply to law school. And I looove arts and crafts🎨🧵🧶 I think that about covers it, but let me know if you have any more questions (:
