I have worked in the professional nanny industry for close to fifteen years. Before that, I worked as an occasional babysitter and camp counselor. I’m certified in first aid and infant/child/adult CPR. I have an undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies (social science concentration) from The Catholic University of America. As well as a graduate certificate in human services from Wilmington University. I’m a patient and empathetic person. I think children have a contagious sense of wonder and happiness. They truly make the world a better place. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting jobs outside my regular nanny position. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello, my name is Jocelyn, and I am 26 years old. I bring extensive experience in educational settings, having worked in both elementary and middle schools over several years. I’m also dedicated and experienced with many years of working closely with infants. Over the years, I’ve gained a deep understanding of infant care, from feeding and diapering to establishing healthy sleep routines and providing nurturing, age- appropriate interaction. I am attentive, patient and always focused on creating a safe, loving environment where your little one can feel secure and thrive. Whether you’re looking for support during those early newborn months or dependable daily care, you can trust that your baby will be in capable and caring hands with me. Currently, I am employed at a middle school, where I am dedicated to fostering students' academic and social development. In addition to my educational background, I offer professional caregiving services for children and pets. I am CPR-certified and committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for those in my care. Safety is my top priority, and I am well-prepared to respond calmly and effectively to any emergency situations. Growing up in a household with dogs, I developed a deep understanding of animal care and responsibility. My commitment to the well-being of both children and pets reflects my dependable and compassionate approach to caregiving. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds. I am available throughout the summer and on weekends to assist with childcare, pet care, or other household needs. Additionally, I am happy to provide transportation to appointments or help with errands as needed, ensuring all tasks are handled with care and attentiveness. My current role at the middle school in the mornings continues until June 19th, after which I am fully available for summer opportunities. I am available now for afternoon care. I look forward to working with your family and providing the exceptional care you deserve in a safe and nurturing environment.

Booked by 1 family in Lagunitas, CA

Hi families! I’m Paula. I’ve been working in childcare since 2017 – over 9 years of experience with children ages 6 months to 16 years. I also spent 2 years as an au pair, so I’m very comfortable being a warm, reliable part of a family’s daily life. My current situation: I’m currently caring for a wonderful 2-year-old, but I previously was taking care her sibling before he started school. I’ve been with my most recent family for 5 years – but both of their children are starting to go to school full-time, so I’m respectfully transitioning to a new opportunity. Safety & reliability: . Fully vaccinated . Own car + clean driving record . References available from past families What I bring to your family: I’m loving, patient, and proactive. I love helping children, I enjoy the outdoors – parks, hiking, exploring nature – but I’m also great at indoor crafts, games, and keeping things organized. I cook, I clean up, and I show up on time. I’d love to support your family – let’s talk!

Hi my name is Erlinda. I live in San Rafael California. I am a NCS, I have had the privilege of working for the last family for the past 4.5 years. My primary responsibilities included childcare ( infancy through toddler years, including twins) and everything related to the babies. My last family described me: from the childcare prospective - she is proactive, hard working, creative, resourceful and patient. I t is clear that she loves our children and looks after them as though they are her own. She has gone the extra mile wen our kids have been sick or during the family emergencies wen we (the parents) have had to leave unexpectedly and we have always felt nothing but secure about the safety and well-being of our kids under her care. (if you want to hear more about my recommendation letter that my actual family described me contact me and I am happy to share and provide the contact) From the Eldercare perspective, I have an excellent recommendation too as a domestic care taker, house keeper, pet keeper, and personal aide. That family described me: As a compassionate individual, I give truly heartfelt attention to personal and house- tending needs. I am happy to provide the contact information to these references.

“I have the opportunity and privilege to work with Erlinda Esparza whom I have for 7 years. When we first met I was immediately impressed with her abilities. During our time together, she displayed such talents as Childcare, Elder Care, the best Housecleaning, Cooking, Gardening, getting Groceries, Dog Walking and she sometimes takes someone to the Hospital or any other emergency. Not too long ago, I needed a driver to take me to a hospital. Erlinda left her family dinner, took me to the hospital, stayed there for 4 hours and drove me home. When we began working together, her understanding was far more than I was expecting. She is a joy to work with because of her can-do positive attitude and valued not just by myself but by her peers who often relied on her to get the job done. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 415-472-4722. Yours truly, Carol Wells”
