Away from the Bay until May 27th! I'll be back and available to book again on 5/27/2026. My CV: sites.google.com/view/minervalerner/cv I'm passionate about childcare and education, and have worked in daycare, preschool, and elementary school and summer camp settings. I've taught and provided care for children ages 2-10; I've also been involved with animals since childhood as a city shelter volunteer and foster caregiver for both cats and dogs. Most recently I've been trained through In-Home Social Services (IHSS) as a live-in caregiver for an elderly adult, assisting in both medical care and daily home maintenance tasks. I'm thoroughly organized (a total neat freak!) and ready to assume a supporting role (having worked as an assistant teacher/caregiver more often than in leading positions). Your little ones' safety and well-being are my top priorities, second only to your own peace of mind – I know how hard it can be to juggle household needs, and I'll take on whatever tasks necessary with enthusiasm!

Hi❣️ I hope you are well! 💐 My name is Jessica! I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced childcare provider with a B.S. in Psychology from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, including coursework in Child Development. I have extensive experience working with children ages 0–12 in both private family and educational settings, including as a nanny, babysitter, elementary classroom aide at a private school, and K–5 Program Coordinator at Cove Elementary, a public school. At Cove Elementary, I spent a year leading enrichment activities ranging from financial literacy and sewing to gardening, circuits, and hands-on creative projects. I love working with children of all ages, with a particular passion for early childhood development! I’ve provided consistent care for toddlers and love creating warm, engaging environments that nurture children’s curiosity, independence, and confidence through outdoor adventures, imaginative play, reading, creative activities, and screen-free learning. My approach to childcare is strongly influenced by Montessori philosophy, particularly its emphasis on respecting each child’s individuality, encouraging independence, and learning through hands-on exploration. I’ve also had the opportunity to shadow an in-home Montessori preschool program, and I enjoy incorporating these principles into my private nannying through child-led activities, practical life skills, and developmentally appropriate learning opportunities. Above all, what I value most is becoming someone a family can truly rely on. I care deeply about the children I work with and find a real sense of purpose in supporting the whole family, not simply providing childcare. I’m happy to help with meal preparation, outings, errands, light household tasks, and keeping things organized! :) I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified, and I take safety, reliability, and communication seriously. I’m highly responsive to messages and believe that clear, consistent communication is essential to building trust with families. I especially love building lasting relationships with families and would be thrilled to connect with a family looking for consistent, recurring care! Hope to meet you! 💌
“Jessica is an excellent caregiver. Our family has known her for 4 years, and worked with her over the last ~6 months. She is extremely bright, college-educated, and has worked in public school and private family settings. She currently cares for our 6 month old on a regular basis, and is excellent at following our requests about care, and brings a huge smile to our daughter’s face. She is extremely organized, timely and communicative, and has a very evident love for children. She also happily engages with our 6 year old when our older daughter is home from school, and very naturally plays and speaks to children. We look forward to continuing to work with her!”
Hiya!!!! My name is Ashé (Cyrus) 🤓👋🏾 I’m a calm caregiver with 2+ years of childcare experience with kiddos aged 3–14. I am certified in CPR + First Aid training for children, infants, and adults, Mandated Reporter certified, Registered Behavior Technician, and Physical Safety certified. I’ve got a background in theater so I love jumping into play! Making up stories, going with the flow, matching high energy, or calmly reading are all facets of the environments I like to create. My approach to childcare is compassion-based and neurodiversity-informed and I seek to ensure all kids under my care feel safe, understood, and engaged! Hope to talk soon and please let me know if there are any questions I could answer! 😁
Hi! My name is Haley and I have been babysitting for about 8 years. I have experience caring for children of all ages. I enjoy spending time with kids, staying active, and making sure they feel safe, supported, and have fun!
“Haley jumped right in, playing and connecting with our 4-year-old son. They had a great time; we felt great about her care!”
Hello Families! I'm Natalia, I'm thrilled to introduce myself to you. With three children of my own, I have a deep love for working with kids and ensuring top-notch care. My interests span a wide range, from reading books, singing, and crafting, to face painting, playing ,engaging in sports, and dancing. I'm passionate about following children's lead and fostering their imaginations. In addition to nurturing children, I'm here to lend a hand to parents with household chores. With 16 years of experience working with children of various ages and a decade specializing in infants and toddlers, I'm confident in my role as a dedicated caregiver. References from families in the Bay Area can vouch for my commitment and skills. I'm bilingual, a creative spirit, and known for my positive and cheerful personality. Safety is paramount, and I hold CPR training and have received COVID-related vaccinations. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I'm excited about the opportunity to collaborate with you and build strong relationships with parents and their families for future occasions. Plus, I offer face painting services for those special moments! 😉 Once again, thank you for considering me, and I look forward to connecting with you soon!❤️
“Natalia was a fantastic sitter for my 6 year old twins. She has a lot of energy and so many ideas for games to play and crafts to make. She kept them busy all day, both at home and at the nearby playground. We will definitely hire her again! ”
