Hello! I’m a kind, calm, reliable, and punctual teacher with a true passion for working with children. I have extensive experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children, and I bring both warmth and professionalism to every family I support. I’m also regularly booked through BPN, where I have ongoing relationships with many families. Select BPN Testimonials: 1. “Hello BPN Community - I would like to recommend Sarah who is available as an evening / weekend babysitter! We’ve had a wonderful experience with Sarah. She is incredibly engaging with our 3 year old, always coming prepared with age-appropriate activities, books, and creative ways to keep her interested. She also moves comfortably between caring for our preschooler and infant daughters, handling the transitions with ease. Her calm, steady presence makes our whole household feel more relaxed when Sarah is around. She communicates clearly with us, while she's at home with us and in between sessions if there are any logistics to align on. Most importantly, she’s been very reliable—showing up on time and ready to jump in every single visit. We’re grateful to have her support and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a thoughtful, capable, and trustworthy babysitter during evenings and weekends.” 2. “We'd love to recommend our babysitter Sarah.

She brings games and thoughtful, educational activities that keep our child engaged, learning, and having fun.” Education & Experience I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Human Development with a concentration in Early Childhood Development.

Hi, I’m Narender — “Bella” to little ones. I have several years of experience caring for infants and young children, creating warm, engaging environments where they feel safe, supported, and excited to explore. My approach is responsive and developmentally intentional. Through play, conversation, books, outdoor time, and everyday routines, I support language, motor skills, confidence, curiosity, and growing independence in ways that fit each child’s age and stage. I naturally adapt my energy to each child—whether that means imaginative play, active exploration, or a calm, reassuring presence when extra comfort is needed. I follow each family’s routines and parenting preferences so children feel secure and parents feel confident. Families appreciate my dependable communication, thoughtful follow-through, and genuine engagement with their children. I’m especially well-suited for families seeking consistent daytime, early evening, or weekend support, and I enjoy building lasting relationships with families. Serving: San Francisco • Oakland • Berkeley Additional Notes • 3-hour minimum per booking (longer bookings preferred for evenings and weekends). • Child-focused care, including light tidying of children’s play areas and items used during care.
“Narender was so extremely attentive of my little one and immediately made him feel comfortable. He usually requires a little time to open up but I could tell he immediately felt safe with her. She was a rockstar to have watch our little one and I knew he was in great hands almost immediately.”
Hi! My name is Dominique, but I go by Doma. I've been around babies and children my whole life. I grew up with my mom running her own home day care and started babysitting at 15 years old for family friends. I'm the second oldest of six children with my two youngest siblings being 9 and 11 years old, so I’m comfortable with watching multiples, doing housework and managing the occasional (or day to day) chaos. I am flexible, empathetic, and overall just really value genuine connection with those I share space with. I’ve found it important for me to be able to really partner with parents and openly communicate about how I can best care for their child and how we can support each other in the process. I look forward to hopefully doing that with you!
Hi, I'm Ananda. I have a lot of experience caring for and teaching children. I have 18 ECE units and experience in preschool, elementary school, summer camp, and art workshops. I really love working with young children. I'm patient, compassionate, and a very good listener. I love reading, doing art, playing at the park, doing puzzles, singing songs, and anything else that is fun for kids. I am currently an After School Art teacher at the elementary level. I am First Aid/ CPR certified and will mainly be looking for work during the school summer break this year and will be open to ongoing occasional work during the school year. I love spending time outdoors and the idea of taking a walk with a kid and a dog sounds like a perfect summer afternoon. I love animals and have some experience walking dogs. I have more experience with cats although I'm mildly allergic to them. Additionally, I have cared for an elderly person helping with errands, rides, and support after surgery or injury. I am very open to helping a senior person. I love art, music, nature, and good conversation. I am also a person with strong reuse, recycle and diy interests. I love to repair things, like jewelry and clothes, and even stuffies! I love to participate in our local fix it fests and repair cafes. I have been teaching kids to sew and do crafts for over 3 years now. I have experience running creative workshops, which have included making earrings, bracelets, tissue paper flowers, skewer sculptures, slime, play dough, hula hoops, and sugar skulls w/ royal icing for Day of the Dead. I also have experience teaching people to make sauerkraut and preserved lemons. Overall, being thorough with details and having clear communication is very important to me. I look forward to meeting possible families who like the sound of what I have to offer. Be well, and have a great day.
