$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 11 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hello, My name is Lauryn, I’m 26 years old, and I have been a babysitter/nanny for over 8 years now working with children of all ages! I am passionate about helping kids learn and grow while making sure to still have fun along the way. I graduated from Sonoma State University in 2020 with my Bachelor’s in Business Management. I also just completed my Multiple Subject Credential to become an elementary school teacher! My current rate is $22 per hour for one child that is *above* 3 years of age and $25 per hour for one child that is *under* 3 years of age. I have plenty of references that I can provide for you as well. A majority of my experience comes from making local connections in my community. I can't wait to meet you and your family! - Lauryn

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 228 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hi, my name is Ryann! At this time, I am only looking for occasional jobs as I cannot commit to a regularly scheduled babysitting job. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in criminal justice studies from San Francisco State University, and I am planning to go back to school to obtain a master's degree sometime in the next few years. I am up-to-date on all my vaccinations and boosters (including COVID-19), and I am trained in CPR/AED/First Aid, however my certification has lapsed. While in college, I took three courses specifically related to child and adolescent psychology and development. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old, and have worked with children of various ages over the years (newborns to preteens) as a babysitter, nanny, and volunteer camp counselor. When weather permits, I like to take the kids outside, for walks or to play at the park. However, I am just as happy staying inside, playing games, doing arts and crafts, or reading to the kids. I can also speak conversational Spanish. In my spare time, I like to read, bake, and make jewelry. Regarding COVID-19: I am happy to provide proof of full vaccination, including booster shots. I ask that all household members of families that I work with receive the vaccine and boosters when possible, unless medically unable. I expect mutual transparency; I cannot babysit when someone in the household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and expect to be told as soon as possible so that the job can be canceled. Likewise, I will inform all families if I or someone in my household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and will cancel the job with as much notice as possible. I will wear a mask while babysitting if preferred, just let me know! *Please note, for liability reasons, I will not drive children in my personal vehicle; however, I am willing to drive children in a parent or guardian’s vehicle, provided that their insurance policy covers me. Similarly, I am also willing to transport children via public transportation, taxi, or Uber/Lyft.*

I am currently a student at Santa Rosa Junior College. I love playing with kids. Coming from a big family I have taken care of all my cousins. I am caring and responsible. For more information you can contact me with questions.

Eridian was excellent with our 3.5 year old. We stayed in Russian River for a wedding and the two of them had so much. I would definitely use Eridian again anytime I’m in the area.
