I am a long-time local Sonoma County nanny caring for children for over 25+ years. I'm hoping to help parents with Date Night sitting as I'm still with my current family of 15 years. I began my current job when the oldest was only 12 weeks old she is now 15 and has a 12-year-old sister only working part-time now. I am an active Mature lady who truly enjoys caring for children as if they were a part of my own family. I'm very kind patient, and trustworthy with many years of childcare experience caring for newborns to teenage. Fully Vaccinated and have my Boosters. I'd enjoy giving you a worry-free Date Night. Thank You, Cora

I'm Stacey. I am very active and energetic. I enjoy being in the outdoors, biking, cooking, and baking. I am a school counselor. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and child development and a master’s degree in counseling. I worked as a behavior therapist for children with autism for three years. I have experience babysitting and nannying for children of all ages, including infants. I do my best to be engaged with the children while babysitting by doing crafts, playing games, and learning together. I work for a school so I’m typically available evenings, weekends, and much more during the summer.

Hello! I have enjoyed babysitting, nannying, caregiving, and mothering over the course of most of my life. I began as a teen in my neighborhood and continued caring for children part-time while in college and working other jobs, right up until I had children of my own. My husband and I have raised four children, now adults and have flown the coop. I sincerely miss children! They are such a joy, so funny, curious, authentic, and precious. Because it was always very important to me to remain available and involved, mothering/homemaking was my main job during my children's growing years (for which I have no regrets)! I also have experience with developmentally disabled children, as I formerly worked with Easter Seals and Nolan Services. Now that I'm a young "empty nester," I find myself wanting to be involved with children again. I value a healthy lifestyle, which includes cooking and eating nutritiously, exercising, gardening, spending time with friends, and learning new things. I recently ended a caregiving job with a lady with Parkinson's, but because of an injury respite from physically demanding work became necessary. Presently I care for children on a part-time basis and have room for more part-time childcare. I also have experience caring for animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and smaller creatures. I'd be honored to come alongside you to help with the most important task of caring for your greatest asset, your children. I am also willing to include light housework, cooking, organizing, caring for plants and animals, assisting with schoolwork, and errands. Sincerely, Catherine

Hey there! I'm Cristina, a college student and part-time retail worker. I used to enjoy babysitting my nieces and so I believe I'd be a perfect fit for your babysitting needs! I'm responsible, caring, and always maintain a positive attitude. My experience in retail has taught me excellent communication skills, patience, and the ability to handle different situations with ease. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a fun and safe environment for them. As a sitter, I am more than willing to help with homework and prioritize the well-being of your children. I am also happy to assist with light housekeeping tasks and any other driving needs to support your family.

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.

Hi there! My name is Khen. I first began working with children when I was 16 years old. I was a nanny for many families in my community in Southern California. I moved to Northern California 4 years ago when I got my first teaching job with the Santa Rosa City School District. I have taught first, second, and will be teaching third grade in August. I'm happy to help your children with homework and have plenty of experience with one on one tutoring. I love to spend time outdoors and would be happy to take your children outside to get those wiggles out. I'm looking for some extra few hours of work this summer, since it is my first summer not teaching summer school! I would love to meet with you and share more about my many experiences working with children (and pets too!). I look forward to hearing from you soon!

I have been a preschool teacher for 25 years. I love working with children of all ages. I have recently taken a two year class on infant/Toddler training that follows the PITC philosophy. I pride myself as being very nurturing, warm loving and caring. I enjoy doing arts and crafts with the children, as well as trips to the parks or playing in the backyard. I am also an animal lover, so pets are not a problem for me.
