Hi! My name is Jess. I'm 31 years old and love working with kids. My mom was a kindergarten teacher growing up, so I was always a booked babysitter and carried on to be a part-time nanny to multiple families through my 20s. I've been working in tech as a UX designer in SF for the past 6+ years (Georgia Tech graduate in 2017), but I was part of a recent lay-off, so I'm looking for some part-time babysitting or nannying again! I live in North Beach and have a flexible schedule! Comfortable with multiple kids and all genders. Being around kids energizes me - I love being part of their world. I love animals, music, fashion, and travel!
Hi! My name is Tarah and I’m a young professional living in Oakland. I’m new to this app, but have been referred by several clients to join. I love being a babysitter and have been doing it for over 5 years. I’m responsible, reliable and patient and enjoy caring for kids, pets and helping households run smoothly. My priority is making kids feel safe, comfortable, and that they can have fun! I love doing activities with kids like crafts, games, reading, play, and homework help. I’m great at following routines. Such as, meals, naps, and bedtime. You can count on me to be attentive, communicative, and dependable at all times. I’m also happy to help with tasks like tidying play areas, children’s laundry, dishes and organizing.
Hi, I'm Paloma and I love working with/spending time with kids. I have my CPR certification and around 4 years of experience babysitting. During the summer I am a kids camp counselor in Orinda and during the year I babysit for different families. I am friendly, patient, and caring. I can babysit for up to 3 kids at a time. I can make simple meals and help out around the house if necessary. I am happy to work with families who have dogs and cats. I graduated high school last year and am currently taking a gap year so I have lots of extra free time to babysit.
I’m a reliable, warm and attentive 30-year-old based in the Berkeley area, currently transitioning from a career in communications into publishing and bookselling. While I get settled in the East Bay, I’m returning to nannying and babysitting, something I’ve loved and returned to throughout my life. I’ve been caring for children since my teenage years, with consistent experience babysitting and nannying over time. I’m most experienced with children ages 4–12, and I also have some hands-on experience with infants and toddlers. I love being part of a child’s day in a way that feels both fun and supportive, whether that’s imaginative play, helping with homework or creating a calm, engaging environment. I’m naturally organized, communicative and emotionally attuned. I pay close attention to what children need, physically and emotionally, and I do my best to create a space where they feel comfortable, understood and encouraged to be themselves. Families I’ve worked with would describe me as dependable, warm and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and someone kids feel at ease around. Beyond childcare, I’m happy to help keep things running smoothly at home! This can include light tidying, organizing, meal prep , etc.
Hi! I’m Gabrielle. I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely loves spending time with children. I’ve been involved in my church’s children’s ministry since I was a teenager, caring for children of all ages—from just a few months old through high school. Over the years, that experience has taught me how to connect with different personalities and age groups, keep children engaged, manage routines, and create an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and happy to help with age-appropriate activities, simple meals or snacks, and light household tasks. I’m also very comfortable around pets. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in the person caring for their children, so I take safety, communication, reliability, and trust very seriously. I truly love kids and would be happy to become someone your family can depend on.

"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."
Lila P., parent

"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!"
