Joanna H.

Hello! My name is Joanna, I’m 27 years old and I’m excited to meet your little one(s). I would describe myself as attentive, caring, and very silly. I like to make arts and crafts, play board games, read, and enjoy nature. I’m able to help with homework and light house duties if needed. I’m CPR certified and I have a BLS. I have experience with children with disabilities. I’ve worked with children quite some time now, I started when I was 17 years old. I’ve worked with many different families (short term and long term). I’m very flexible with schedules and I’m comfortable with pets. I worked full time as a certified nursing assistant helping the elderly and nannying as a part time but I realized I enjoyed being a nanny more than my full time job. That is when I became a 1:1 aide at a school. I enjoy working with children because I love to see them learn and grow and they’re always such happy souls. Your children are guaranteed to be in good hands with me! :)

Linda watched over our 14 month old while she slept during our date night. She was on time, polite, and gave us peace of mind as we left. We will definitely be calling on her again!

Grizel is such a wonderful babysitter! We have a 2yo son that needed a last minute sitter and she was everything we were looking for. Her playful and nurturing demeanor made our son feel comfortable and safe, and we could tell he had a great time with her! Whether it was feeding him lunch or tidying up after playtime, she always made sure everything was taken care of. We also appreciated her punctuality and reliability. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

Violet V.
- 4 years paid experience

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!
Amaker L.
- 15 years paid experience

I have always been really gifted when it comes to working with kids. I started babysitting at ten years old, and evolved into a specialized nanny for kids with behaviorism issues, then a preschool educator, and mothers helper. I really enjoy creating community and being a part of a village when it comes to raising kids. It’s essential to be a trusted adult in vibrant transient cities to families that may not have a lot of family support near by. I have years of experience, and still really enjoy working with youth. *I DO NOT DO SPLIT SHIFTS*

Amaker has been wonderful with our family. Our son was immediately comfortable with her, which meant so much to us, and she has been incredibly engaged and attentive with him from the start. She plays with him, interacts with him thoughtfully, and genuinely seems to enjoy spending time with him. She has also gone above and beyond what we originally asked of her. She’s constantly finding ways to help around the apartment and has made a real difference in helping us keep things sane and running smoothly. She is dependable, proactive, kind, and such a helpful presence in our home. We’ve been very grateful to have her!

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! 😊😊

Leticia D.
- 8 years paid experience
- 10 miles
Hello! My name is Leticia. I am a caring and reliable babysitter with experience caring for babies 1 months and older. I help with feeding, diaper changes, bath time, playtime, and keeping children safe and happy throughout the day. I truly enjoy working with children because they bring joy, creativity, and energy. I have many years of experience babysitting for family and friends, and I also helped raise my younger siblings, including one with Down syndrome and another with autism. This has made me very patient, attentive, and understanding of different needs. I am also a young mom, which has given me even more hands-on experience with babies and daily routines. I treat every child with the same love and care as my own. I am bilingual (Spanish & English), a non-smoker, and comfortable with pets. I am happy to help with light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep, homework, and activities. I have a valid work permit and can provide references if needed. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones in a safe and loving environment.

Leticia was very kind, patient, and attentive with my 11-month-old daughter. She kept her entertained, engaged, and happy by playing with her and giving her plenty of attention. I really appreciated her caring approach and would definitely hire her again. Highly recommend!
Katrina E.

Hi! I’m Katrina, and I’m passionate about providing dependable, engaging, and compassionate childcare that helps children feel safe, supported, and confident while giving families peace of mind. I have over eight years of experience working with children and teens of various ages and developmental needs, including seven years supporting autistic children, adolescents, and young adults in home, school, and community settings. This experience has taught me how to meet each child where they are and create consistent, supportive routines tailored to their individual needs. I currently work as a mid-level supervisor for an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) company while pursuing my master’s degree in ABA. My professional experience has strengthened my skills in communication, patience, organization, safety awareness, behavior support, and remaining calm in challenging situations. I believe childcare should be both supportive and fun! I enjoy games, crafts, homework help, outings, and activities based on each child’s interests and personality. I’m also comfortable with meal preparation and cooking, light chores, and bedtime routines. I’m comfortable caring for two children at a time. For three or more children, or children requiring a higher level of support, I’m happy to discuss your family’s needs and rate in advance to ensure I can provide safe, attentive, individualized care. I value open communication with parents and am happy to learn your child’s routines, preferences, allergies, safety considerations, and any strategies that help them feel comfortable and successful. Because I may occasionally need to respond to a clinical emergency, I may bring my work phone and computer. I would only address work matters when necessary while ensuring the children in my care remain my priority. I have reliable transportation and can assist with school pick-ups/drop-offs, activities, outings, and child-related errands. I’m comfortable around dogs, including my own husky and pug. Due to a cat allergy, I’m unable to provide care in most homes with cats. I’m available for occasional babysitting, date nights, after-school care, or consistent support. I’d love to learn about your family and how I can provide safe, individualized care while making your day a little easier!

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.

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.
