Asia G., Babysitter in Lafayette, CA 94549 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I am a 23 year old recent graduate of NYU, and have moved back to the bay. While at NYU, I worked with a family for two years weekly helping with cooking, transportation, hw help and much more. In addition to that I have worked with many families occasionally as needed. I have tutored, cooked, cleaned, and have lots of experience with bedtime routines for a wide range of ages. I also did a summer internship at a women's shelter where I worked one on one with toddlers. I am about to start a job here in the Bay Area where I will be teaching at an elementary school program. As past of the onboarding requirements I have gotten fingerprinted, as well as TB testing. I have driven a car for 5 years and have a clean record. I have my own vehicle for parents looking for help with transportation! I truly value and appreciate the time I spend with kids, and have learned so much from them. I can confidently say that I will provide a safe, reliable, and fun environment for any kid that I babysit.

My kids loved having Asia watch them! My son said the next day, "Can we have her be our babysitter next time?!" The house was clean and the dishes were done when we got home from our date. She was communicative leading up to the night and then throughout the evening. Definitely would reccomend!

Kyo R., Babysitter in Lafayette, CA 94549 with 35 years of paid experience

Hi, I am a experienced, reliable private nanny currently seeking a part-time position within 15 miles of Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill/Lafayette area. As a mom of three and a proud grandma, caring for children truly comes naturally to me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including 12 years supporting children with special needs. I'm warm, patient and engaging, and I love being a part of a child's daily life whether that's reading, spending time outdoors, or supporting routines that help them feel secure and confident. I have excellent references, a drivers licence and I can assist in light household tasks, meal prep, errands, children's laundry and helping keep daily routines running smoothly for busy families. My rate is $32-$40 an hour depending on the job and responsibilities. I prefer a private pay arrangement and I'm open to discussing guaranteed hours for the right family.

I’ve been babysitting for many years now, and I have a lot of experience with all ages. I get along great with kids and their parents, and my schedule is extremely flexible! I manage my time very well, and I respect the parents time as well so I would never be late. I am also a very clean person and was raised to clean up after myself, so I will make sure your house is in good condition as well!

I was an Infant/Toddler Lead Teacher at a Fortune 100 company in San Francisco on the Embarcadero. I have been teaching for six years and have worked as a babysitter since my early teenage years. I am moving toward working with families on a long-term basis. I enjoy working with children and supporting the development of their learning skills through nurturing care and positive experiences in new environments with new friends. I love being silly and bringing joy through smiles and laughter. I am interested in learning more about this opportunity.

Charnette has been terrific to work with. She has baby sat our son multiple times starting when he was 9mo old (He's 2yo now). She really knows kids at that age and was able to connect with him quickly and overcame any stranger-danger. They clearly had a good time together and things went super smoothly. She is always quick at communicating and getting back to us and absolutely on time. We couldn't be happier.

Marcella was wonderful with our two energetic boys! She worked with them on some fun projects (and worked with them to clean up when done), fed them, got them to bed, and straightened up the living room! Her communication was great and we were really happy!

Dania K., Babysitter in Lafayette, CA 94549 with 25 years of paid experience

Hello! I'm a dedicated childcare provider with over 25 years of paid experience, specializing in infant care and children from first grade and up. As a mother to a wonderful 20-year-old daughter, I understand firsthand the trust parents place in caregivers, and now that my own child is grown, I'm excited to share my passion for nurturing young minds. My previous family trusted me for 16 wonderful years until their children outgrew needing care, which speaks to my reliability and the meaningful relationships I build with families. I'm comfortable with all aspects of infant care including feeding, diaper changes, and sleep routines, and I love engaging elementary-age children with homework help and age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and creativity. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel secure and happy while maintaining open communication with parents about their child's day. My extensive experience means I can handle any situation with confidence and calm, and I'm committed to respecting each family's unique parenting style and household rules. I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your family's needs and would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss how I can support your childcare needs. References available upon request.
