I have more than 5 years of experience taking care of kids, I’m a pro-active person. I’m really good with kids. I like to play with them, let them learn and explore , also teach them good moral and values. So when they grow up they have the right tools to handle every situation. My biggest dream is to help them to develop their intellectual and emotional intelligence.

Hi! I’m Lili, a San Francisco nanny with nearly 4 years of experience caring for toddlers and school-aged children. Families I work with describe me as reliable, warm, and someone their kids genuinely look forward to seeing. I currently work with several repeat families in neighborhoods like Pacific Heights, Cole Valley, Inner Sunset, and the Marina. I recently graduated from San Francisco State University with a degree in Political Science and a minor in Business Administration. My education, combined with years of caregiving, has strengthened my communication, patience, and problem-solving skills. I love creating fun and engaging routines for kids that balance play, creativity, and structure. Whether we’re doing art projects, exploring outside, reading together, or working on homework, I try to create an environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn. I have experience with school pickups, bedtime routines, meal prep, outdoor activities, and helping kids wind down at the end of the day. I especially enjoy working with school-aged children and helping with homework, creative projects, or practicing Spanish through play and conversation. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in Spanish, and have my own car so I can help with transportation if needed. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help families with light household support such as kids’ laundry, tidying play areas, meal prep, errands, and general organization. Families I work with appreciate that I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive to each child’s needs. I do my best to follow each family’s routines and preferences so kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care.

Hello my name is Claire, an Irish girl living in San Francisco. I have 10 years experience in nannying, not including experience as a preschool teacher (ages 2-5), experience teaching elementary school kids (ages 5-12) and I have also taught ballet and speech and drama to children from the ages of 2 up to 16. I am a compassionate, reliable, and dedicated nanny who is passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. I am extremely patient, empathetic, and I take pride in building strong, positive relationships with both children and families. I like to work closely with parents to establish routines that align with family values and goals. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, organizing crafts, or helping with homework, I like to ensure that every child’s needs are met with care and attention.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
