Hello! My name is Kimberly, and I enjoy providing dependable, attentive care for children and families. I love being a caregiver because I believe children thrive in environments where they feel safe, supported, and encouraged. It’s rewarding to help families by creating a calm, positive space where kids can learn, play, and grow. I have experience supporting families in a variety of caregiving environments, including assisting nurses during childbirth and helping with post-delivery recovery. These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of attentive care. I am also comfortable helping children with routines such as getting ready for school, preparing meals, assisting with homework, and supporting after-school activities. I am currently pursuing nursing school, which reflects my commitment to healthcare, safety, and caring for others. My background in kinesiology and health sciences has given me a strong understanding of wellness and child development. I am fluent in English and Tagalog, which allows me to connect with families from diverse backgrounds. I am also a 1st Degree Black Belt in Karate, which reflects my discipline, responsibility, and strong sense of safety and respect. I strive to be reliable, flexible, and supportive, and I look forward to helping families feel confident that their children are in caring and capable hands.

Kimberly has come into our home and taken to our 4-year-old son almost as if he were hers. She shows up prompt and is very punctual, very kind and loving, and even after she leaves, he asks about her for days. We're so grateful to have Kimberly available to us and will continue to utilize her as our primary babysitter.

Aura is an amazing nanny. She is kind, loving, hardworking and professional. She cared for my baby full time from when he was a couple months old through 1 year, in addition to caring for my 4 year old on days school was out. She developed a deep and genuine bond with my children and they get so excited when she babysits. She also finds ways to help our family whether it is by picking up some needed supplies while on a walk with the baby, or tidying the common area so it looks better than when she found it. Any family is lucky to work with her!

Hello! My name is Britt. 😊 I grew up in WA state near Seattle and came to CA for college. I have 29 years of experience... Ever since age 13 I’ve babysat for several families at a time and also loved it! I think the best part of it all is getting to see these tiny beings change and grow, seeing their personalities come to light. Many might see babysitting as just a necessity for parents to be able to go out and have adult time, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a chance to have fun, to engage a child’s sense of wonder and their sense of self. I like to do activities with them and be outdoors when possible. I’m very respectful of parents’ preferences and like to follow their same rules set for their kids. I know that being a parent can sometimes be challenging... I can be there to help give you a much needed break or to help make daily life a little easier for you. While I have not been blessed to be a mother yet myself, I’ve learned a wide variety of things from each of the families I’ve had the pleasure to know and love. I have experience with autistic, Down syndrome, as well as behaviorally challenged individuals. I can help with homework, house work, transportation, and errands. I also am available for overnights, weekend stays (or longer if needed) and assistance on family vacations. Any other questions feel free to ask! ☺️

I love working with young children. Preschool aged children specifically. I've worked with preschoolers and toddlers for 7 months. I love to play, help, and do whatever the child wants to do. I'm good at organizing, cleaning, and providing care to a child. I also enjoy going to places where I can take the child or children to play, eat, or explore. I've only had experience working with children for 7 months. I'm still new and learning how to be someone who works with children. I did complete all Early Childhood Classes at Allan Hancock College back in December. My goal is to make sure the child or children I’m with are safe, healthy, and happy. I also want to make sure they have the best day possible. I will send you my full schedule for you once you send me a message. I’ll also ask questions as we make it work. I look forward to babysitting your child and making great memories with them!

Hi! My name is Bella and I've been babysitting for 9 years. I'm 21 years old and I'm in college at Cal Poly. I'm a very outgoing person who can talk to absolutely anyone. I'm very creative. I love to craft and make things from basically nothing. DIY and Pinterest could literally be my middle name. I have a lot of work experience with children because I work at a children's museum. I love kids because I think they bring out the good side in anyone. They make you become creative and just all around happy. Thank you for reading my bio and I hope you get back to me! :)
