Hi! My name is Payton and I'm currently working as an engineer full-time. I am looking to make some extra cash on the side and enjoy spending time with kids (and animals). I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old and worked full-time as a nanny for two summers for two awesome girls (4&6). I have also worked/volunteered as a soccer coach, in-school translator, and tutor. I can cook, help around the house and run errands where needed. I currently have cats and have previously had a dog and am more than happy to help with any animals.
Hi! I am a responsible and caring 32-year-old with over 20 years of experience in childcare, pet care, senior care, and household tidying/management. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old, and I was a nanny for about 5 years to four kids who were ages 2-9 when I started working for them. I love deep conversations and interesting facts, and have experience with neurodivergent and highly intelligent kids. I provide a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment, helping kids learn about and grow in the world in their own unique ways through outdoor exploration, dance, reading, crafts, museums, and imaginative play! I also love animals and have a lot of experience in pet care. I have a degree in psychology, including coursework in child development. I also have my 200-hr yoga teaching certification and am going back to school (in the Bay) to pursue a joint MPH/Dietetics degree. My cpr/first aid certification expired in Jan 2026, but I am happy to renew if requested!
I am a compassionate and dependable caregiver with one year of hands-on experience working with children with disabilities. As a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT), I am trained in implementing behavior intervention plans, supporting skill development, and creating structured, positive environments that help children thrive. My background has taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of individualized care. I have experience working closely with families, therapists, and other professionals to ensure consistent support and progress. Through my work, I’ve developed strong communication skills, the ability to remain calm under pressure, and a deep understanding of behavior management strategies. I am attentive, organized, and committed to maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. In addition to working with children, I am comfortable assisting with light household tasks to help families maintain a smooth daily routine. My goal as a caregiver is always to provide support that promotes independence, confidence, and overall well-being.
Hi my name is Selen and I live with my partner Joey and our dog Lulu in the Oakland Hills! We have 8 chickens and 6 quails and I love taking care of all of our animals. I have a 2 year old nephew in Oakland, and I've gained a lot of experience being an active auntie in his life (he also loves my dog Lulu). I'm currently in school for my master's in social work at Samuel Merritt University and looking for part-time work helping families in the neighborhood with their kids, pets, and any other caretaking. I'm super friendly, compassionate and would love to help out in any way I can.
Hi - my name is Keith and I'm currently a preschool teacher. I have 11 years experience working with 2 - 5-year-old children. I believe every child is capable of learning and growing in a supportive environment. I also have an educational background in English and creative writing. I'm a published author. Along with babysitting, I can also cook, tutor English writing / reading, and do household errands if needed. I'm allergic to cats but I'm happy to work with families with dogs.

"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!"
