Hi my name is Em I’ve recently moved back to the Bay Area from traveling and am looking for a fulfilling role with either children or seniors. I have experience working in childcare in a variety of forms such as, daycare provider, mother’s helper, and personal nanny. I’ve worked with children 10months- 5 years, but open to working with older kids as well. I’m comfortable with chores, errands, overnights, and helping the family in any way that I can as well. I have a background in health and wellness as a yoga instructor and am interested in finding a position focused on outdoor activities or where I can help children develop their curiosities and hobbies. I also have senior family members who I spend time with and would find fulfillment continuing to work as a helper.
Hi! I’m a dependable and engaging caregiver with extensive hands-on experience caring for young children. I’m a mom of two children, so I’m familiar with daily routines, transitions, and the needs of infants, preschool and early elementary-aged kids. I also have experience providing care for teens and tweens. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through art projects, books, imaginative play, building activities, and outdoor time, while also maintaining a calm and fun environment. I have prior babysitting experience and bring a patient and attentive approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable managing meals, playtime, and bedtime routines, and I’m also pet-friendly with many years of experience caring for cats. I’m currently seeking occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and am happy to support families who need a reliable, caring sitter.
I had working with wonderful family taking care of their little one with love , care .
Hello! I am a Bay Area animal caregiver. I started walking and then boarding & sitting. I love bonding and delivering the best experience curated around your dog’s needs and interests. Looking forward to meeting you!
“Jordan has been walking our dog for quite a while. Roger loves her and she's consistent, friendly, and professional. Highly recommended!”
I left my unfulfilling job to reboot and find a new one. I love creativity and coming up with fun ideas and would be happy to look after your children and pets. I am responsible and follow instructions carefully. **Bookings within 24 hours: $45/hour **

"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."

"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!"
