***I am only available for occasional babysitting after 5pm on weekdays and some weekends. Thank you for understanding!*** I am an administrative professional who became a nanny during the pandemic. While I am no longer nannying full time, I am hoping to babysit occasionally for a few families long-term on evenings and weekends. I have experience with kids of all ages and absolutely love pets! I am fully vaccinated and boosted for COVID and am willing to mask, etc. I grew up doing theatre and love to entertain little ones with singing, dancing, reading aloud, etc! I had many different nannies growing up and know how important they are to a child's life. My friends would describe me as very reliable, conscientious, and caring. References happily provided upon request. I look forward to hearing from you! ------------------------------------------------------------ “Nina is incredibly patient, loving and helpful with our 6 month old son. She has always been very adaptable to our developing parenting styles (first time parents over here!) and she’s been very helpful in providing recommendations or additional context based on her previous nanny experiences. She is an excellent communicator and she regularly goes above and beyond to make our son as comfortable as possible and celebrate his baby milestones. She engages with our son through many activities including singing, reading, playing, going outside, tummy time and snuggles at nap time. I wish we could continue our time with Nina, but we are moving out of the state. If you are looking for a dependable and caring nanny, Nina will be a great fit for your family!” -Katie, February-June 2021

Thank you!

Morgan watched my 10 year old son Preston and they did great. She was also nice enough to change my laundry proactively. She’s definitely very experienced and I hope to have her watch my kids on a more regular basis.

We have been beyond blessed having Erica take care of our 19-month-old son for the last 6 weeks. She reads him book after book, she plays with blocks and cars and chases him around until they are both cracking up laughing. She handles his lunch, bath time, and nap time every day (and he is not an easy one to nap for most people). What I was really amazed with was her level of engagement with him. My husband and I work from home and we could hear her talking to him and laughing with him all day. He asks for her and talks about her constantly when she's not here and we were heartbroken when our local daycare had a spot open up for him. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their child.

I hired Rhiannon twice now to take care of our almost 2-year-old, and it has been great. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and so good with our little one. From engaging activities to ensuring a safe environment, and putting our son to bed, she goes above and beyond. We feel completely at ease knowing he is in such capable hands. We highly recommend Rhiannon to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring babysitter!
Athena C.
- 6 years paid experience

Hello everyone (: Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me. My name is Athena, and I am a bay area native with about 6 years of experience in childcare. I've had the pleasure of caring for children as young as 3 months old all the way up to pre-teens! I think my combination of experience and childhood development courses make it easier for me to develop a good relationship with different age groups as well as care for multiple children at a time. During my time working with kids my role within the home has definitely been flexible for the needs of the family, and I like to consider myself fairly easy going and loving. Luckily, I have had pretty good experiences with past families and even still babysit for some on occasion. My experience ranges from setting sleep schedules and starting solids to homework help and supervising play dates. I am also an animal lover, so pets do not scare me away. Please reach out if you have any questions and have a nice day.

Athena took care of our daughter from 6mo until just after her 2nd birthday, and we are deeply impressed with (and appreciative of) the level of care and professionalism she brought to the job. She provides a calm, warm presence that our daughter immediately took to. Athena is communicative, resourceful, and always thinking of new ways to entertain a baby/toddler, which is no easy task. She always ran new ideas by us, and she was happy to take our girl out of the house on little adventures whenever possible. She also showed immense flexibility as she stuck to our ever-changing schedule perfectly, which we very much appreciated as anxious first-time parents! She does everything with a smile on her face. We truly never had to worry when Athena was with our baby, and she is still our first call when we have any babysitting needs. She cares deeply about her charges and develops such sweet relationships with them. Her thoughtful, gentle, kind personality is just the biggest bonus. TL;DR: we love her, 10/10 would recommend!

Vicky is worth her weight in gold! She started as our nanny when my daughter was 21 months old, and worked with us for a year and half until we relocated. She has also babysat our two children (most recently at 1.5 and 4.5 years old) on the occasions we’ve visited the Bay Area since. She is punctual, reliable, considerate, perceptive, warm, and incredibly talented when it comes to enriching the lives of the children under her care. She cultivated my daughter’s confidence, independence, and imagination with tailored experiences and gentle guidance that matched my daughter’s abilities, interests, and Montessori sensitive periods. Both our daughters absolutely adore Vicky and speak of her frequently, even when it’s been months since we’ve seen her. She is truly a gem, and has my enthusiastic, highest recommendation. We are forever grateful for the way she’s blessed our family, and miss her dearly!
Jaynelle T.
- 10 years paid experience

I have been a private career nanny for multiple families (for ages 7 months and up) for over 14 years now, as well as a daycare teacher assistant and an Au Pair. I connect very well with children; I enjoy working with the magical little beings because I’m inspired by their contagiously high-spirits and spontaneous creativity! I offer children an abundance of presence and play. I encourage nature-based exploration, creativity cultivation, and problem-solving. I draw inspiration from elements of alternative education philosophies, but I’m mostly interested in letting the child lead while I provide the appropriate boundaries and guidance. Each child is so unique, and my goal is to facilitate their unfolding. I would be a good fit for your family if you are looking for a responsible nanny with a good heart, an authentic appreciation for kids, and someone who will provide a positive contribution to their development.

Jaynelle has been the nanny of our four children ages 2, 6, 8, & 10 for the past two years. We could not be happier to have found such a caring, responsible, attentive, fun loving person to watch over our children. Our three boys and their younger sister absolutely adore her, as do we. We could not say enough good things about Jaynelle and her quality of care. We will dearly miss having her around as she has been such a positive influence on all of our children. She is genuinely one of the nicest most sincere people you will meet. Unfortunately for us Jaynelle will be relocating to Narragansett. Let our loss be your gain. If you are considering hiring a person for a child care / nanny position Jaynell comes very highly recommend.
