Hello! My name is Carol and I’m so excited at the prospect of working with you and your children. A little about myself: I was born and raised in San Francisco and lived in Denver and New York before moving back last year. I have my Masters in Social Work and have held multiple positions working with children in a variety of settings and capacities. I have experience as a tutor, babysitter, after school program coordinator, school social worker, and child welfare caseworker. In my experience I’ve cared for ages ranging from infant to teenager. Working with children is a great passion of mine because I am inspired by their curiosity, joy, and sense of exploration. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with your family!

Hello! I recently graduated in December from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, with my Bachelor's of Science in Public Health last December. I lived in Tahoe for the past year, where I skied, served, & nannied for a 6 MO. I just moved back to San Rafael to focus on nursing school apps. I was born and raised in Marin and I went to San Rafael High. I am 23 YO, and have been babysitting since I was 12. I am Red Cross Cert'd and have extensive experience babysitting and nannying. I am comfortable with animals, love to ski, and get outside! I am more than happy to hop on a phone call to see if I can help your family with your needs, what you're looking for, if I am a good match for y'all, etc. I look forward to chatting!

Hi! I'm a 40-something, fully vaccinated, CPR certified, college graduate (UVM) looking for babysitting work. I'm looking to babysit because I'm amidst a career change and grad school and I need something flexible. A little about my experience: I have babysat and nannied since I was 13 years old. In Burlington, VT I nannied for 4 years for a family with 2 children, a 2-year old girl and a 7-year old boy. After college, I nannied for 2 years for a family in Fairfield, CT (where I'm from) with 2 children, a 3-year old daughter and a 6-year old son. Recently, I have babysat occasionally for a couple children and also have taken care of my 3-year old niece. In addition to those examples, I come from a big family so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages and needs. I'm flexible with duties and schedules, have my own car and am able to help with homework, sports, play dates, cooking, light housekeeping, errands, pets, etc. I've been told I'm good with kids and I certainly do love them. I wasn't able to have children myself so babysitting is the perfect way for me to connect with children and help the community out. Thanks for reading my profile. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi my name is Kylie and I am a Marin native. I graduated from Tamiscal High School in 2021 and am currently focusing on gaining more work experience and saving. As of now, I work at the front desk for a local gym. I have years of experience working with children ages newborn to pre-teen. I also have experience working at various daycares and really enjoyed interacting with the parents as they dropped their children off. I have always valued working with children, I believe watching them grow and hit new milestones is one of the most special gifts. I am open to part time and full time nanny positions along with travel childcare and housesitting opportunities. I am CPR and first aid certified, fully vaccinated - including Covid and follow all of the current Covid safety guidelines. The safety and well being of the children in my care is of utmost importance to me. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, visiting to the beach, and going to the gym. I look forward to speaking with you!

Hello! I am not your typical babysitter. I love children and have dedicated most of my life to them. I am a recently retired elementary teacher/children's librarian with 30 years of experience in the classroom. I have been caring for children since I was a teenager beginning with babysitting and as a camp counselor. In my twenties I was involved in children's and educational theater. My passion for children inspired me to get my teaching degree and I got to pursue a career that brought me much fulfillment and joy. I love reading to children and I am happy to bring books to your home specifically curated for your child as well as my special "Magic Bag" of puppets. In addition, I can act as a tutor to help your child build their reading and writing skills. I am very active and enjoy spending time in nature. I look forward to connecting with you.

Hi, my name is Robyn, and I am currently a preschool teacher in Marin. I am seeking extra work on weekends or weekday evenings. I am open to setting up a regular schedule, but I'm also interested in occasional babysitting opportunities. With my background in early childhood education and experience as a preschool teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to caregiving. I began babysitting at the age of 12 and have continued to work with children ever since. Growing up with a Waldorf education instilled a love for nature, outdoor activities, and exploration. I enjoy spending time outdoors and traveling, and I believe these experiences enrich my approach to working with children. Please feel free to reach out to me to set up a time to talk.

In my early years I was a nanny for children with special needs, twins and highly sensitive children. I taught Montessori to infants to ages 3. After receiving a MA in Management with an emphasis in child development and adapted physical education I followed a long career as a Director in Wellness. I love working with children and have three school age children including twin girls age 8 and an 11 year old boy. I spend my time with my own children and others baking, cooking, creating art, reading, playing and in nature.I enjoy being outside learning through nature and watching the eyes through a child. I hope to find a family to support as a nanny/ house assistant: personal assistant utilizing my collective expertise managing and as a nanny.

Hello! My name is Jaidy and I am 24 years old. I am a fresh and didactic mind for children. I have 9 years years of experience. I started this magnificent love for taking care of children since I was 15years old, it all started with the daughter of my neighbor doctor who had to leave me her baby since she was 3 months old and from there I began to take care of more and more children, the last time I took care of children was in October since I had to leave my family of a single mother and two girls, one 6 years old and the other 14 years old, I had to leave them because my residence came out and I had to move to this country. I AM VERY GOOD IN THE KITCHEN! I love cooking so that will not be a problem if you need me to cook for you, clean houses, wash clothes and everything that has to do with care and attention for the home. Just as I have thousands of positive attitudes, I have only one defect and that is that I currently do not speak English fluently, I know that I can manage to understand 20% but it is very difficult for me at the moment to be able to speak it. I am currently specializing in childcare, my part-time job is to be a teacher's assistant in an educational center for children, I am taking classes, I have the first aid course. I hope I can meet you soon ♥️
