Keisha was wonderful to work with. She was so kind to let me schedule her with notice just one day in advance. She was very good at managing two toddlers. She was patient and acclimated very quickly. I would highly recommend her and work with her again.

Hello, My name is Tyler. I'm 23 and currently have 6+ years of experience nannying+helping parents manage daily tasks to keep the household running smoothly. I’ve worked for single parents, high profile families, and moms+dads that work long hours and just need an extra hand, so I understand that every family is unique and am flexible to your needs. I also spent about 2 years working as a certified swimming instructor at la petite baleen in San Francisco which taught me developmental and safety training for children aged 2 months to 16 years old and am able to help out with any household chores. I'm enthusiastic and very helpful and would love to hear back from you if I’m the kind of sitter/nanny you’re looking for. Thanks!

I used Tyler about 2 years ago for assistance with my 3 daughters and she was great! I am a little late with a review but I came across her profile and it was needed. She was very punctual, communicative, enthusiastic, adaptable, and reliable.

I have been teaching in preschool (age 7 months to 5 years old) for over 12 years as my full time job in a Montessori school.

I can tutor in math, English and Mandarin subjects. I like to babysit and meet some new families and kiddos. I can work for the day night, weekends, and school closed for any holidays.

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!

Violet V.

Hello! My name is Violet, and I have 8 years of childcare experience. I have been a nanny exclusively for about 4 years and have cared for kids of all ages, although my "specialty" is with younger ones! I love caring for infants, as I am currently working as a Postnatal Care Specialist, where I take care of newborns and freshly postpartum families. I have future goals of becoming an ultrasound technician. I show up every day with an open mind, empathy, patience, and a smile. I love to connect with everyone in the family. I also know a lot of baby sign because I am learning ASL, which can really help those younger ones greatly with their language skills!

Violet is an absolute joy! My kids love her and are always excited to her. She is VERY punctual, well-spoken and kind. She asks questions when she is unsure and respects all of our wishes. We could not recommend her more!

Natalie V.

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! 😊😊

Charnette A.
- 7 years 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.

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.
