Madeline G., Child Care in Larkspur, CA 94939 with 25 years of paid experience

Hello Parents! I live with passion and I share a great deal of it within the scope of my compassion when caring for children and getting the opportunity to be a part of family/families in caregiving. Youth have been a part of my life in some capacity for nearly moving into 26 years. Notably, I have cared in the private caregiving sector consistently for the past ~13 years in SF (native, Bay Area-San Mateo- SJ-East Bay-Peninsula with experience working within those areas). My experience ranges from Infants/toddlers are my specialty. Experience with share, multiples, twins, and special need care in the classroom/clincial, 1:1 in home (ASD/ABA therapy trained Behavior Technician Paraprofessional). I enjoy incorporating my love for music training/painting, health education (PH) background and incredible joy for the outdoors while working with youth. I consider myself loyal, honest, dedicated, giving, loving, consistent, confident, patient, reliable and kind. I love to laugh and smile, value healthy communication and reach far beyond my responsibilities. I view my part as a nanny/caregiver is such like a village with a family/families and I hope I can find a new family/families that would humbly know how special your children/child would be in my life, on a daily basis. I have a wealth of unconditional love to give children and as a nanny I’m honored to be able and share it amply, able to assist in as a step in parent, and part teacher as well. I practice positive parenting methods, strong subscriber to 100% limited to no-screen time which stem from my Montessori roots. I enjoy play based learning, inside and out! Individual growth is the best! I am extremely knowledgeable of amazing resources (no cost and many others across the scale) all across SF neighborhoods (including the Peninsula and South Bay extremely well) to fully provide and assist to foster children so they blossom into their own individual, special selves. “Assist in bringing out their own colors.” Warmest Regards to your family, Madeline/Maddy

Maddy worked with us as a nanny full time for eight months until we transitioned our daughter into daycare. Maddy's affection and dedication to our infant daughter was obvious, and our daughter loved spending time with her. She was also very good about suggesting toys and other age-appropriate developmental activities, introducing new foods, assisting with child-proofing, and consistently reading to her. She was also very committed to cleanliness and hygiene; we still rely on many of the cleaning products that she introduced us to.

Natalie  V., Child Care in Larkspur, CA 94939 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Natalie and am 25 years old. I'm an experienced babysitter with 10+ years of experience who has a passion for child care with a goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. received my bachelor's of science in nursing this past May at Samuel Merritt University in Oakland and am currently finding occasional babysitting jobs as I study for my state board exam. I wanted to go into nursing because I have always enjoyed helping people. I have always enjoyed working with children, which is why I chose pediatric nursing and why I have always gravitated to childcare jobs. My mom and grandmother owned a daycare for 13 years of my life and I was a big help, so I have experience taking care of newborns all the way to teenagers. I have volunteered during the summer at many camps as a youth counselor. During the pandemic I worked through zoom to provide one on one care with children that needed homework assistance or just virtual playtime. I have worked as an after school instructor at my local elementary school, where I am currently working. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and sport practices, crafts, bedtime routines, and tutoring. I can also clean, tidy up the house and run errands if needed. My main goal is to always make sure children are having fun in an educational way and providing a safe environment for them. I am a big fan of arts and crafts so I always carry crafts around me in case a fun little activity can be done. I also love pets and take care of them as well! I have had many hamsters, cats, dogs, chinchillas, etc...so I am fine with giving them my extra care. I am also bilingual and speak English and Spanish fluently, and wouldn’t mind giving a little Spanish lesson every now and then. I like to her walk my dogs, do puzzles, and watch movies in my spare time. I am fully vaccinated and CPR certified. I look forward to meeting you! 😊😊

Wendy worked full time for my family for 1 month this fall while we were in need of extra help. She is a lovely person who was eager to do a good job & was flexible to my family’s needs. Her responsibilities were: playing & watching my 3.5 year old son, feeding/burping my 4 month old daughter, changing diapers, stroller walks, washing bottles, preparing small children’s meals for my son, cleaning up toys, organizing toys, washing drying folding and putting away laundry, bathing & doing the nighttime routine for my son. Some of her strengths include: sweet & easygoing, trustworthy, energy to run around with toddler, flexible schedule, eager to do whatever is needed to make your life easier (offered to return packages for me & drive me places if needed). She has her drivers license & has a lot of experience driving + was willing to keep a car seat in her car for our son. Any family would be lucky to have her!

Melody helped us with a one-time weeknight babysitting job for our five month old baby. It was easy to coordinate with Melody, she was very clear professional, and she was also very sweet with our baby boy. My partner and I felt very confident going out for our first night out as new parents knowing that Melody was there for our baby.

Hi! I’m Katrina, and I’m a warm, dependable childcare professional with 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages. For more than 8 years, I’ve also supported autistic children, adolescents, and teens, helping them feel safe, understood, and confident in their daily routines. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and experienced in caring for children with allergies, asthma, and other medical needs. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality and interests. I love creating fun, engaging days through play, reading, crafts, and age-appropriate activities while providing a safe and nurturing environment. I’m comfortable preparing meals and helping with bath time, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping, including washing dishes, doing laundry, wiping surfaces, and vacuuming or sweeping. I’m also happy to assist with pet care. However, due to allergies, I’m unable to provide care in homes with cats. Due to my current schedule, I don’t have availability for recurring daytime childcare. However, I’m open to regular evening sitting, including date nights, late events, or general care to give parents a break, as well as occasional babysitting needs.

Katrina is nurturing, patient, and kind. She has baby sat my daughter over the course of two years. She and my daughter have such a great relationship. I love how she structures her time with my daughter; she ensures my daughter though young, follows a routine and always has activities for her to try. Katrina applies any feedback to her quickly and is always looking to ensure she provides the best quality of care. I really appreciate her help.

Charnette A., Child Care in Larkspur, CA 94939 with 7 years of paid experience

I previously served as an Infant/Toddler Lead Teacher at a Fortune 100 company on San Francisco's Embarcadero. Currently, I teach at a play-based preschool in the Piedmont/Oakland area. What I love most about my current role is being part of a program that views families as true partners; we build deep, collaborative connections with parents through daily check-ins and shared community projects to ensure a seamless home-school connection. In our vibrant classrooms and beautiful outdoor spaces, I guide children through an emergent curriculum that lets their natural curiosity and peer interactions shape their learning journey. With six years of professional teaching experience and babysitting since my early teens, I specialize in nurturing the whole child by prioritizing social-emotional development and relationship-building. I thrive on helping young learners safely navigate new environments, build confidence, and make new friends. I love being silly, spreading joy with smiles and laughter, and acting as a true "learning ally" to your child. I am eager to learn 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.

Jessica has been an absolute blessing for our family. We were initially hesitant to trust anyone with our 21-month-old daughter, but Jessica's warm and nurturing nature immediately put us at ease. Her responsible and attentive approach to childcare is remarkable. She engages our daughter in creative activities, ensuring her safety and well-being at all times. Jessica's patience and genuine love for children are evident in the way she interacts with our little one. We now have complete peace of mind knowing that our daughter is in Jessica's capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their child.
