Sheri did a one-day trial with us to care for our 5-month-old baby. She was very responsible in changing diapers, gently helping him fall asleep, and engaging with him during his awake time. Our baby was very comfortable with her and clearly enjoyed her company. Although our family is currently going through a major transition and we are unfortunately unable to move forward with hiring her, we highly recommend Sheri for any childcare position.

I’m a thoughtful & caring nanny who has 8 years experience. I adapt quickly into most situations. I love kids & wish I’d have had 5 instead of 2. I’ve worked with newborns, infants, babies & toddlers up to age 15; with 1 child & as many as 4 children at a time. I offer fresh & nutritionally balanced meals & snacks. I handle sleep training if needed, pick ups, drop offs & general household assistance depending on your needs. I maintain kid’s pantry, grocery shop & run errands. I bring age appropriate developmental activities, indoors & outdoors. For example: swimming, mini golf, baseball, beach time, & developmental activities like art, reading, computer, math, legos, & constructive free play. I believe in outings to the parks, museums, movies, & beaches. I’m seeking a great families who need a hand. I am Covid protocol compliant including my vaccines and booster. My varied experience, judgement, patience, energy, education, fitness, & love of play based learning is a great contribution to the right family! Thanks! Lynn - [ ]

Lynn watched our 20 month old for two evenings while we were visiting from out of town. She was attentive, kind, trustworthy, and very professional. Lynn made us feel very comfortable and we could tell right away that our daughter was in good care. We love Nanny Lynn!

I’m a warm, grounded caregiver who focuses on helping children feel truly seen, safe, and understood. My approach is rooted in mindful communication, emotional awareness, and creating a calm, consistent environment where children can explore, express themselves, and build confidence. I support early communication and independence through tools like baby sign language, offering choices, and guiding children through big feelings with patience and empathy. I value play-based learning, outdoor time, creativity, and simple daily routines that help children feel secure and engaged. As a mother, I bring a deeply attuned and intuitive presence to my work. I understand how important trust, consistency, and emotional safety are in a child’s development, and I approach each family with care and respect for their unique rhythm. I have experience caring for children from infancy through school age, including supporting siblings, managing routines, and creating engaging, screen-free days filled with play, learning, and connection. I aim to be a steady, positive presence that feels like an extension of the home. I offer a flexible rate range depending on the level of support needed and am always open to a thoughtful conversation about what feels aligned for both the family and myself.

We’re so grateful to have found Kristi, who has been nannying for us 3 days/week. Our infant had a lot of separation anxiety to begin with, and Kristi was very patient, giving her plenty of time to warm up and get used to having another caregiver around. Our daughter now loves spending time with her, and it’s such a relief to know she’s well-cared for. Kristi is happy to take our lead on care instructions but also creative in coming up with fun ways to entertain her. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kristi!

We've worked with Kelsy several days this year as a bridge toward a delayed daycare opening. She's helped us both as part of a nanny-share and then as the dedicated nanny to our 4-month-old son. Kelsy is spectacular with kids! We thought our apartment was going to explode the first day of nanny-share (with a 4-month-old and a 6-month-old), but she's very patient and has a number of tricks to soothe fussy infants. She's also great at entertaining children in general and quickly was able to use our Alexa to find a number of good songs to get him laughing. It has also been great to have our son be able to hear some real Spanish and not my broken phrases. And in general, Kelsy is easy to reach by text and email and very professional in terms of agreements, expectations, etc. Perhaps the only con (if it can be called that) is that she is very particular about COVID-19 restrictions, even more so than the CDC would recommend for vaccinated adults as of May 2021. That being said, there are plenty of other respiratory viruses out there - so great that she is so cautious about avoiding getting any of us sick and vice versa!

Alyssa is a gem! She is kind, patient, caring, and reliable. Both of my kids look forward to seeing her, and love spending time with her. I feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care, and highly recommend her as a babysitter.

Hello families my name is Annette and I am a Mom of 18 year-old teen. I've always loved working with Kids and I'm looking for some part-time work to save for my daughter for college for when she transfers I do have a part-time job in Health Care. I am CPR and first aid certified. I work with families within my job and really love that part of my job. I also have experience with some senior care as well. I do like to get kids outside and keep them active in the fresh air even with a simple walk. I can help with homework and following any sort of errands or activities they may have I have a Toyota Highlander which is a very safe car and a perfect driving record. I think one of my core values while watching your children is to make sure they feel safe and cared for above all else when you are not around if we can get homework or other things done that's great but I do think that is very important. I live on the coast and was born and raised here in half Moon Bay. my time is limited for part-time work but looking forward to seeing if we'd be a good fit for each other.

Annette is the best! She is one of the only people I trust to watch my precious babies. (4 yr old & 7 month old) She is so experienced and such a comfort to our family. She always has my 4 year old’s favorites waiting for him, play doh and coloring supplies ? We are so lucky to have her as a sitter!

Hello my name is Brenda and I am a Latina female. When it comes to being a sitter I love every part of it. Especially having the opportunity to see the personality of the child, and the amazing person they become while providing a safe, fun and caring environment where they feel safe to be themselves. All while helping them have an environment to grow while fulfilling your family’s needs. A little about me: I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am currently learning ASL (American Sign Language) and am studying to major in nursing. I previously have taken care of kids ages 4 months - 10 years old, and I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified.
