Emily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Em I’ve recently moved back to the Bay Area from traveling and am looking for a fulfilling role with either children or seniors. I have experience working in childcare in a variety of forms such as, daycare provider, mother’s helper, and personal nanny. I’ve worked with children 10months- 5 years, but open to working with older kids as well. I’m comfortable with chores, errands, overnights, and helping the family in any way that I can as well. I have a background in health and wellness as a yoga instructor and am interested in finding a position focused on outdoor activities or where I can help children develop their curiosities and hobbies. I also have senior family members who I spend time with and would find fulfillment continuing to work as a helper.

Lauren $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a dependable and engaging caregiver with extensive hands-on experience caring for young children. I’m a mom of two children, so I’m familiar with daily routines, transitions, and the needs of infants, preschool and early elementary-aged kids. I also have experience providing care for teens and tweens. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through art projects, books, imaginative play, building activities, and outdoor time, while also maintaining a calm and fun environment. I have prior babysitting experience and bring a patient and attentive approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable managing meals, playtime, and bedtime routines, and I’m also pet-friendly with many years of experience caring for cats. I’m currently seeking occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and am happy to support families who need a reliable, caring sitter.
