Hi Families!I’m a caring, dependable, and enthusiastic sitter with experience working with children across a variety of ages and developmental stages. I have babysitting experience with children as young as 6 months old and also spent about three years working in a preschool setting. Through these experiences, I have learned how important it is to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable being themselves.I graduated from Washington State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Human Development, which gave me a strong understanding of child development and the different ways children grow, learn, and interact with the world around them. I am currently continuing my education in graduate school, where I am pursuing my Doctorate in Occupational Therapy. My background in childcare, human development, and occupational therapy has strengthened my ability to be patient, attentive, adaptable, and intentional when caring for children. Most importantly, I strive to create an environment where children can have fun, feel supported, and stay safe while in my care. I look forward to getting to know your family and providing dependable, engaging care for your little ones!

Hi! My name is Paige and I live in Sausalito! I have experience with newborns-school age. A little about me: I'm an 22-year-old girl born and raised in Oregon. Growing up with 3 sisters, in a family run daycare, I've had amazing experience working with young children from day 1! I started as a nap-time babysitter at age 10, then moved to a volunteer at said daycare before I started part-time at 16. I have immense experience in babysitting for many families but my main focus in high school/college was with 2 surgeons, providing overnight and day time care along with transportation for an infant and toddler. I also helped with basic household task while parents were working long hours. For example, grocery shopping, laundry, preschool activities and many more. Additionally during my undergraduate career I was able to gain experience working with children with special needs and multiple child development classes. My internship was in adolescent nutrition doing one on one nutrition appointments along with 5-8 year old cooking classes at our local community center. My current position is with 2 families in Marin County caring for 8 month old and 4, 6, and 9 year old. I will be attending USF for a masters in School Psychology in summer of 2027!I am CPR certified, up to date on all vaccines, have a very safe mid size SUV, and have multiple years of swim lesson/life guard experience.
