Hallelujah
Hello families! I am Hallelujah! I am 19 years old from Alameda! I have been babysitting since highschool! I have a younger sister which I have been taking care of my whole life. Taking care of kids has always been something that has been a huge part of my life. I would love to share!

Ashley
I am college student with much experience as the eldest sister and cousin. I have had many other side jobs caring and watching over littles from hours to nights. I’ve watched babies and kids from 3months old all the way into the preteens and have never had a problem doing fun and activities while mixing some education in it. I take pride and joy in being a safe/comforting person specially to such little fragile and growing humans, and seeing the world through their eyes, I believe in structure of course but also highly believe in being heard and attending to individual needs.

Alicia
Hi! My name is Alicia. I have experience caring for children and I truly enjoy working with little ones. I am a caring, patient, and responsible person. I have experience as a babysitter and nanny, and I am comfortable caring for children of different ages. I always make sure children feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

Hello, my name is Breanna, and I am an experienced nanny with a strong background caring for babies and young children. I live very close to Orinda/Lafayette, which allows me to be reliable and punctual. I have previous childcare experience from Mexico as well as in the United States, and I can provide references from my most recent family. I am responsible, loving, patient, and very dedicated to children’s safety and well-being. I enjoy creating a calm, safe, and fun environment while following daily routines such as meals, naps, and age-appropriate activities. I have my own car, my vaccinations are up to date, and I am looking for a long-term, stable position where I can give my full commitment. My first language is Spanish, and I am currently starting English classes.

My journey started with two years in a daycare setting, where I learned the "nuts and bolts" of childcare. This is where i learned patience, safety, and how to handle those unpredictable moments with a calm heart. But beyond the professional experience, I’m simply someone who truly loves kids. I believe every child deserves a babysitter who is genuinely excited to see them. I’m naturally upbeat and high energy, and I love bringing that "spark" to the families I work with. Whether we’re building the world’s tallest blanket fort, reading favorite stories for the tenth time, or just chatting about their day, I aim to be a supportive, fun, and reliable presence in your home. I know how important your little ones are to you, and I promise to care for them with the same warmth, laughter, and attention I’d want for my own family. I can't wait to meet you and your kiddos!
