Hi! I'm Monica — a bilingual caregiver, former preschool and elementary school teacher with over 10 years of experience working with young children. I have a degree in Human Development with a concentration in Child Development through CSU East Bay University and I’m certified in CPR and First Aid. I also have a clear background and driving record. My passion lies in supporting the early years of development, especially for children ages 0–6. I’ve spent years in the classroom nurturing young minds, and I now bring that same structure, creativity, and care into the home. I offer in-home babysitting, homework help, and healthy meal prep — always creating a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for each child. I'm fluent in both Spanish and English, and I love incorporating language development and learning through play into everyday routines. If you're looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and experienced, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
“I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Monica for 2 years, where we collaborated in the field of early childhood education. During this time, she demonstrated herself to be a dedicated, responsible professional with a strong commitment to the holistic development of young children. Ms. Monica stood out for her ability to create a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment, thoughtfully adapting activities to meet the individual needs of each child. Her pedagogical approach, combined with patience, empathy, and creativity, contributed significantly to the social, emotional, and cognitive development of her students. Her strengths include age-appropriate lesson planning, positive classroom management, effective communication with families, and strong collaboration with fellow educators. In addition to her professional skills, Ms. Monica is a reliable, well-organized individual with a consistently positive attitude—essential qualities for working in early childhood education. I highly recommend Ms. Monica for any role within the field of child development, particularly as she begins her new professional journey of opening her own child care program.”
Hi, I’m Ana! I’m a proud mother of three grown children and have dedicated the past 15 years to working in schools. Throughout my career, I’ve served as a campus monitor, instructional assistant, and currently as a paraprofessional, supporting and encouraging children ages 4–10. Outside of work, I enjoy creating art, solving puzzles. I love helping children learn and grow while bringing patience, creativity, and kindness to everything I do.
Hello! My name is Moa. I have 6+ years of professional childcare experience. I am completely comfortable working with children, from infants to teenagers. I work part time as an instructional aide, so I'm primarily available in the afternoons/evenings and weekends. I enjoy my job because I love working with children! I am first aid and CPR certified.
Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic caregiver who genuinely loves working with kids. I have experience with children of all ages and personalities, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and included. I currently work at an after-school program, which has helped me build strong skills in staying organized, keeping kids engaged, and handling different situations calmly. I also volunteer on some Sundays at a children’s ministry at church, where I usually work with toddlers—so I’m very comfortable with younger kids as well! In my free time, I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, and I like bringing that same fun, positive energy when I’m with kids—whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy. I’m reliable, easygoing, and someone parents can trust to take great care of their kids while making sure they have a good time too!
“Very professional and great w small children”
Hi families! My name is Makena, and I'm a 20-year-old student at the University of Kentucky originally from San Ramon, California and will be in San Ramon for the summer. I've always enjoyed working with kids and have experience babysitting, including caring for a 10-year-old boy over the summer, experience as a summer camp counselor, and helped as an assistant cheer coach for the summer at California high school. During my time babysitting, I helped with meals, transportation, activities, and making sure he had a fun and safe time. I'm also comfortable caring for pets and have experience with both cats and dogs. As a former Division I athlete and lifelong cheerleader, I'm energetic, patient, good under pressure, and love to stay active. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and judgement free environment where they can feel comfortable and have fun. I have my own car and am happy to help with pick-ups, drop-offs, and other tasks as needed. My goal is to be someone both kids and parents can trust, and I would love the opportunity to get to know your family!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
