I am CPR and infant sign language certified, and of course love kiddos of all ages. I attend Cal Poly Humboldt so I am only able to work part-time, but I look forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about me
Hi! I’m Zoe — a kind, creative, and reliable caregiver who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I’ve worked with children of all ages, and one of my favorite roles was with Pedalheads, where I taught young kids how to ride bikes. It gave me a deep understanding of their struggles and triumphs — from wobbly starts to proud first pedals — and I never get tired of watching those lightbulb moments when something finally clicks. I bring that same patience and encouragement into everything I do.
I’m CPR certified, safety-conscious, and always happy to keep parents in the loop. I love being outdoors, getting silly with imaginative games, and creating a calm, supportive space where kids can be themselves. When I’m not nannying, you’ll probably find me sketching , surfing (badly, but happily), or taking my cat for a walk. I believe kids deserve care that’s full of compassion, creativity, and a good dose of fun — and I’d love to be a part of your family’s village.

Hi l'm Gracie Lee and I'm actually studying at Cal Poly Humboldt from Sydney, Australia. I have had several years experience as a child care worker as I worked in a day care as an instructor. I have also had many different babysitting jobs over the years and love being around kids and pets. I'm quite sporty so I would be more than happy to get your children active or just having a fun time outside.

A little bit about me
I am non-binary and use they/them pronouns and hoping to work with a family who is queer affirming :-) Caring for kids is really special for me because I myself was raised by nannies and au pairs and truly understand how impactful they can be on a child's life. I bring playfulness, patience and compassion to the kids I work with, and absolutely love outdoor activities as well as more introspective artistic projects indoors. It is my joy to get to know kids and what sparks their interest and do my best to meet them where they are at. I've been teaching yoga for over 10 years and enjoy integrating mindfulness into the households I work in. Let's connect! :-)

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Ada. I’m currently a student living in Santa Cruz. I began babysitting at a young age, and from there began teaching dance at my local dance studio to young students (ages 5-13) for four years during high school. I connect with children due to my playful yet firm nature. Because of my history as a dance teacher, I know how to create fun and educational activities while still being able to keep children in a structured environment. I am easy-going, friendly, and love to surf, dance, make art, cook, and garden! I am great at meal-prepping, and am passionate about the benefits of a balanced and healthy diet and lifestyle. I am also always available to do the dishes/tidy up/organize/sweep/vacuum...you name it.
Look forward to meeting you!
