$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Novato, CA

Hi, I’m Kelly, and I would love to provide childcare for your family! I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including 6.5 years as a nanny for a family with two children. In that role, I supported their daily routines, helped with schoolwork, and built a warm, trusting relationship with both kids and their parents. Beyond babysitting and nannying, I've worked for 3.5 years at an after-school math and reading program, giving me experience with tutoring and working with kids in both group settings and one-on-one care. I love engaging children through hands-on crafts and games, and I'm passionate about helping kids feel secure, supported, and excited about their day. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and hold a certification from the Nanny Institute. Safety and well-being are always my top priorities, alongside creating a fun, nurturing environment for the children in my care. I look forward to meeting you and the opportunity to support your family!

Juliana $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Juliana, and I’m a caring, experienced, and highly reliable childcare provider with almost 10 years of experience working with children from 2 months old to 3+ years old. I was an au pair for 2.5 years and never went through a rematch. I also have over 2 years of nanny share experience and have cared for babies starting at 4 and 5 months old, supporting them through important developmental stages into toddlerhood. At the moment, I’m looking for overnight childcare opportunities for specific situations, such as events, date nights, weekend trips, or times when parents need extra support. I’m available for weekend overnights, for example from Friday night to Sunday, as well as weekday overnights from around 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM. I also have overnight experience caring for a family with three older children, ages 16, 14, and 12, so I’m comfortable providing overnight support for both younger children and older kids. One family trusted me enough to travel to Mexico for a full week while I stayed with and cared for their baby. I would be happy to provide references upon request. I’m confident with infant and toddler routines, including feeding, naps, diapering, bedtime, play, and emotional support. Families often describe me as trustworthy, patient, calm, and genuinely devoted to the children in my care. I truly love what I do and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and deeply cared for.

Hi! My name is Ally! I’m currently looking for ideally part time consistent work. To best align hours, I just wanted to preface I work a part time, remote job Monday through Thursday; 9:00am-1:00pm. I’ve been babysitting kids around my neighborhood for years now and regularly babysat my little cousin as he grew up! My responsibilities have included driving to and from activities/school/sports, as well entertaining/keeping them busy, supervising in general, and making meals/snacks. I’m also a very active outdoorsy person, so I’d be happy to keep the kids active on walks. Even trips to any close by parks. I’m a big animal person! So I would be love to help out in a home with cats or dogs. Happy to entertain/keep pets busy as well. I have experience petsitting of cats/dogs, for those that are looking for that. I’d be open to helping around the house jobs as well. From cleaning, tidying up, running errands, and cooking.
