I have been a sitter and nanny since I was 15. I am very passionate about children and view my role as not only a sitter/nanny, but also a role model and someone they can trust. I am a full time online student at the University of Arkansas studying social work, sociology, and child advocacy studies. I would love to be a part of both you and your children's lives and I look forward to meeting you!

I am the older child of a single mother, and grew up acting as a built-in babysitter for my brother (six years younger). More recently, I have worked with children from the age of 24 months and up. I am comfortable changing diapers and making basic meals. I'm a very hands-on babysitter, and I love being outside, playing dress-up, drawing, reading out loud, and even making up the occasional story!

Ive been taking care of children for 18 years, as well as having raised 4 of my own. I am especially qualified for newborn to age 3. Ive been fingerprinted and know CPR. I love my job and it all comes naturally for me. I quickly become part of the families that I work for. It gives me great pleasure to read to the children , and when families tell me I've been the reason that their children love to read, it truly warms my heart. . There's no greater joy than to see a toddler pick up a book and ask me to read to them !

Jennifer watched my daughter from about 6mo to 18mo, once the pandemic hit I didn't need a sitter anymore. She watched her in my home which was convenient for me and she read her a lot of books and would take her to the park in my neighborhood and the library. She would always clean up what they used and played with, I never came home to a mess. I really liked her and would hire her again.

Hi my name is Estefany! I am from Pacific Grove, California and attend San Francisco State University! I absolutely adore kids and work with them on a daily basis. I was a previous preschool teachers aid in the Mission District & coach a 2007/8 children's soccer team. I will be home for the rest of the semester due to the coronavirus outbreak. I am also CPR/First Aid certified & bilingual in Spanish & English. I have many years of babysitting, tutoring, and coaching. If you have any questions/concerns I am more than happy to answer. Hope to hear back soon, thank you!

We hired Estefany to watch our toddler while we worked full time. She was exactly who our son needed during this time. Estefany engaged my son and spent a lot of time playing with him outdoors. She made sure he was safe at all times, applied sunscreen, put a jacket on when it was cooler out, etc. She treated my son like her own baby brother. Estefany also did little chores around the house on her own initiative. Unfortunately she had to move out of the area, but even then she looked out for Beau when she found a friend to replace her. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

Hi, I am Betsy! I'm a Nana type sitter, mature in years with a youthful enthusiasm and the energy to match. Safety is my first priority; I am certified in first aid and CPR and have a food handler's safety card. I adore little kids and am always ready for floor time, story time, soulful talks and abundant creative silliness. I would love to give your child my undivided attention, respect, and sufficient boundaries so mom and dad feel good about our time together. I enjoy putting together healthy meals and snacks, making the wholesome and well balanced look cute and taste yum. I am happy to look after your fur babies too and am especially good with the shy ones. I offer compassionate and attentive elder companion care as well.

Betsy was a wonderful nanny! She cared for our two small boys and was incredibly kind, steady, and thoughtful in all of her interactions with them. They spent their hours together outside, building, singing, and talking. She followed our routines with ease and was respectful of our wishes. Any family would be lucky to have her!

My name is Lauren and I have about seven years of experience working with kids. I currently work in children's and family ministry at my church and have worked with kids from infants- 5th grade. I have spent about a year and a half living with my cousins helping to take care of their 2 and a half-year-old triplets and their 10-year-old. I am also willing to do light house work including cleaning, dishes and laundry. I am typically available evenings and weekends for date nights and the occasional babysitting jobs.

Lauren stayed with our 10 year old daughter when we were out to dinner. She communicates well so making arrangements and getting to know her was easy. My daughter had a great time with Lauren who was very engaged and made the evening a lot of fun.

K-8 Credentialed Teacher New To Area

(2)
I am a new resident of Pacific Grove originally from Mountain View, CA. I have a decade of experience teaching in California and abroad. I enjoy tutoring because I can really get to know my students, identify their gaps in understanding, and help them move forward. I tutor ESL, reading and writing at all levels, and Math up to grade 8. I also have 15 years of experience in childcare. I adore infants and toddlers as well as older children. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kiddos and coming up with fun activities to do together (crafts, cooking, baking, science experiments, etc). I am not the kind of sitter who will plop in front of the TV or focus on my phone. I am also an excellent cook with a passion for working around food allergies and other dietary issues. I have a clean CDL and my own car. I am happy to provide professional references. Given my qualifications and experience, I charge $20-25/hr for childcare and $50/hr for tutoring.

Maytal was a wonderful help during our 4 months of at home learning! We initially hired her as a nanny mostly for our youngest daughter, but then covid hit and her role completely changed. I would hire her again for both a nanny or an at home tutor. Our children loved her!

I strongly believe in investing time in children to help them become the best they can be. I love being around children and animals. They lift my spirits and it is so fun to spend time with them.

Hi I'm McKennah! I am 20 yrs old and am originally from Austin, TX, but am currently attending college at Colorado Christian University in Lakewood, CO. I am hoping to move to California between January-March and stay until August to travel and live all over the country! I am looking for a full time nanny job or a lot of babysitting jobs to pay rent & make a car payment. I love kids and have over 8 years of experience. I am a big sister of 4, and they are my best friends. I have dozens of references and many families who I have babysat for that have become like family! I volunteered at Gateway Church in Austin for many years; working with infants, toddlers, kindergartners, and then led a small group of girls from their 3rd grade year until their 6th grade year. Babysitting has been and always will be my favorite job. I love having dance parties, doing makeovers, playing games, watching movies, doing crafts, going out to explore, etc. I'd love to be a nanny as it brings me so much joy!
