Esly $35 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring, responsible, and patient childcare provider who truly enjoys spending time with children of all ages, from babies to older kids. I love creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, valued, and cared for. I enjoy playing with children, interacting with them, reading stories, doing age-appropriate activities, and encouraging their creativity and development. I also enjoy taking them to the park, going for walks, or simply staying home and spending quality time together.

Gabrielle $29 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I am a passionate, patient, and highly communicative caregiver who truly loves being a part of children's growth and daily milestones. I believe in creating a joyful, structured, and engaging environment for little ones. One of my favorite things is planning creative activities both indoors and outdoors. I love introducing music to children’s routines—I’ve been playing the keyboard since I was 12 years old and enjoy using music for learning and fun! I also love cooking healthy meals, diving into the magical world of Disney and cartoons, and planning special surprises or themed activities for holidays and celebratory dates to make their childhood memories extra magical. Open communication is very important to me. I love connecting with parents at the end of the day to share updates, talk about the children's daily routine, and ensure we are always aligned. I look forward to bringing safety, creativity, and lots of smiles to your home!

Aileen $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am an undergraduate student at Santa Clara University majoring in Civil Engineering. I have over six years of babysitting experience and have worked for two years at elementary schools as a paraeducator. I have experience working with children of all ages and enjoy planning activities, playing, and staying actively engaged with kids. I am very hands-on, patient, and always willing to play and interact as much as possible. I am bilingual in Spanish and English, comfortable and experienced with pets, and I am happy to help tidy up when needed. I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children.

London $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m London, a neuroscience major and student-athlete who has always loved working with children and hopes to continue doing so in the future. I have been babysitting for 6 years and have experience caring for children of different ages, including children with special needs. Being a student-athlete has taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, communication, and time management. I love creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves while also encouraging their curiosity and growth. This summer, I had the opportunity to work as a camp counselor with children ages 4–12, where I planned activities, built relationships with campers, and helped create a positive experience for every child. I absolutely loved getting to be a part of their days and watching their personalities shine. I’m passionate about making kids feel valued, supported, and excited to learn and play. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family!
