Booked by 7 families in Menlo Park, CA

Hi! My name is Liana and I’m looking for one-time and occasional babysitting jobs. I’m a Physician Assistant student at Stanford University and am looking to make some extra money while I’m in school. I have always loved working with kids. I graduated with a B.S in Neuroscience from Santa Clara University and I hope to work in pediatrics as a PA. I have past experience as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), pediatric medical assistant, daycare volunteer, and math/reading tutor. I have my own car and am comfortable driving to/from activities. I enjoy reading, baking, spending time outside, watching tv/movies, and doing crafts!

Booked by 6 families in Menlo Park, CA

Hello! I hope you're doing well. I'm a mother of three (ages 15, 16, and 18), with lots of experience caring for multiple children. I'm patient, kind, organized, and proactive. I'm fluent in Spanish and English, CPR and First Aid certified, and I have a valid driver's license, a clean record, and my own car. I love keeping babies and kids engaged with activities like reading, arts and crafts, and trips to the park or library. I also like to help out around the house during downtime with tidying, laundry, and other chores. I'm available Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 9:00 a. m, as I work with another family in Portola Valley afterward. During that time, I can help with bathing, laundry, bottles, organizing, and drop-offs/pick-ups if needed. References are available upon request! Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat by phone or video call. Thank you so much for your time!

My daughter loved playing with Isabel. She had a wonderful time. Would definitely hire again!

Booked by 1 family in Menlo Park, CA

Hi, I’m Rick; a caring, energetic, and responsible individual with a lifelong passion for helping families thrive. I’m 37 and currently based in Redwood City. With a strong background in both child and pet care, I bring over three years experience working with all age groups from newborns and infants (1.5 years experience) to toddlers, preschoolers, school age kids, and teens (3 years’ experience each). I love playing, teaching, and learning with kids of all ages, adapting creative activities and games to keep everyone engaged. I focus on fostering a supportive, positive, and fun environment while maintaining structure and clear communication. Parents can count on me for organization, reliability, and compassion at every step. While my main focus is on child care, I also have extensive experience in animal care, behavior, and training (over 3 years). Alongside my wife, I’ve prepared healthy, natural organic treats and meals for pets, and I’ve led group outings for dogs in our local area. As a telepathic animal communicator, I genuinely understand pets as family; I currently care for three cats and have cared for several dogs and cats in the past. My core values include healthy living, mindfulness, and keeping a toxin free, caring home. I believe in living with integrity and consistency aligning words, actions, and beliefs. I love to teach and guide through games and self reflection and I'm always eager to help young minds flourish. If you’re looking for someone compassionate, honest, detail oriented, and fun, who understands the needs of both kids and family pets, let’s connect!

Recommended 100%🔥🔥, Rick is a rocket. He puts our kids down very fast, he's very nice, has a healthy style of living🍀. Loves our girls and pets which is amazing because our pets and girls love him too. I trust him and love his passion for his job.

Booked by 17 families in Menlo Park, CA

Hi! I’m Xeriz, a 23-year-old with a passion for caring for children. I’ve worked as a nanny in different cities over the years, and now, as an ABA behavior technician, I love supporting kids, especially those with special needs. I’m friendly, patient, and adaptable, always making sure to create a fun, safe, and loving environment for children. I also enjoy meal prepping and can easily tailor meals to your family’s needs, whether it’s keto, vegan, low-carb, or protein-focused. I’ve lived with families as their nanny before, so I’m used to adjusting to different routines and can do the same for you. Music is another big part of my life and something I’m truly passionate about :) I sing and play multiple instruments, and I’m always happy to share that with the kids through fun musical activities or even teaching them to play if they’re interested. Now that I’m back in NorCal, I’m excited to focus on what I love most which is helping children grow and making a positive impact on your family’s life!
