Katy $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Katy. I work full-time in HR and Operations during the week, so I’m mainly available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting. I graduated from UC Davis with bachelor’s degrees in Political Science and English and have been babysitting on weekends for over 10 years. During that time, I’ve had the opportunity to care for children of different ages. I also grew up with two younger siblings and worked in an after-school program at the Boys & Girls Club of the Peninsula, where I gained even more experience creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. I’ve always enjoyed being around children and getting to know their different personalities. I believe every child is different, so I try to get to know who they are and meet them where they’re at. Whether that means playing games, reading stories, doing crafts, or helping them get ready for bed, my goal is to help them feel safe, heard, comfortable, and have a good time while you’re away. I’d describe myself as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your kids, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I also like keeping parents updated while they’re out so they can enjoy their time knowing their kids are safe and doing well. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter for a date night, weekend plans, or just an occasional event, I’d be happy to help! I look forward to meeting you and your family.

tuce $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Tuce — a caregiver based in the Bay Area. I’m a Turkish immigrant building my career in healthcare, and caregiving is the direction I’m intentionally moving toward. I completed my CNA clinical training at Sunnyvale Post Acute and have since been working with home care agencies in the Bay Area. I’m also starting Home Health Aide training in October — so this work is something I’m committed to long-term, not just picking up on the side. I grew up in a culture where caring for children and elderly family members is something families do themselves. That’s shaped how I show up: calm, attentive, and genuinely comfortable with the rhythms of a home. Spending time with children is something I genuinely enjoy — not just a responsibility I take on. I like to play, I follow the child’s lead, and I find real pleasure in those small moments that make a kid light up. At the same time, I take safety seriously and keep a close eye on what’s happening around us. That combination — staying engaged and staying aware — is something I’m naturally comfortable with. I have CPR and First Aid training. I’m bilingual in English and Turkish. I’m reliable, I communicate openly with parents, and I’ll leave your home the way I found it. Available for one-time bookings, date nights, and weekend coverage. Happy to chat before you book — references available on request.

Colette $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Colette, and I'm currently a graduate student at Stanford. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 16. My responsibilities have included transportation to and from school, supervised activities, cooking, and homework help. I'm an experienced tutor from elementary to high school with a specialization in writing and English. I'm passionate about helping children love learning and feel confident in their skills! I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I enjoy cooking and baking, and I am happy to aid in preparing meals or teaching cooking and baking skills.

I can also help with meals and light housekeeping. Since I’m a nutritionist, your kids will always have healthy and balanced meals.
