Booked by 17 families in Brisbane, CA

Hello families! My name is Kelly and I'm so excited to meet you. I recently graduated from the Burnett School of Medicine at TCU with a Master's of Medical Science, and I am available for light part-time or occasional jobs. I graduated with a BA in English in 2015, and worked for several years in teaching: high school music and dance programs, summer camp operations, and most recently in administration for a nonprofit preschool. In addition, I spent a year at a local Children's Hospital, planning age-appropriate activities for children of all ability levels. I enjoy primarily working with infants and young children. My favorite activities to do with kids include playing in the park, reading, arts & crafts, and music. I'm proficient in basic Spanish and love to practice with little ones! I am Infant & Child CPR/First Aid certified, and enjoy creating safe and fun spaces for children to play.

Punctual, professional and fantastic with the kids. Would definitely hire again.

Current availability: Tuesday - Friday evenings after 6pm. Weekends. Hello, my name is Bobbie. I’m from a very small town in Iowa, raised on a farm. I graduated high school at 17, where I began taking community college classes until I decided to make the big leap to move to San Francisco, CA. I came to San Francisco in 2014 to study Interior Architecture and Design at the Academy of Art University where I graduated in 2017. After graduating I have proceeded to work in High-end Interior Design for some very well known firms in the city. As for childcare experience, I grew up with a lot of cousins, some of which I babysat for, and in later years watched my nieces and nephew. During my time of studying college I have helped many families in the Bay Area with their childcare needs ranging from newborn to early teens. I have many years, and lots of experience watching children, and look forward to assisting you with your childcare needs.

Very thoughtful, attentive, warm, and patient!

Booked by 8 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi, my name is Faith- I grew up in and love San Francisco. When I'm not babysitting, I'm surf instructing middle and high school age kids, baking, or singing to my cat. I'm CPR and first aid certified for infants, toddlers, and adults. I have experience working with infants and toddlers both on outings and at home, and elementary school aged children at home, sleep away camps, and surf summer camps. I love reading with kids, as well as baking, doing crafts, or leaving the house to walk or go to the park. When working with kids I think it's important to have empathy and and patience, as well as respect for their boundaries and autonomy. I like to resolve conflict by making sure everyone feels heard and allowing children to feel and have space to process big emotions. I take care of my cat, Dumpling, at home, and I have experience feeding, walking, and sitting for dogs. I'm also always open to caring for other pets and broadening my knowledge. In terms of senior care, I 've had the opportunity to intern at the VA hospital in their longer term wards and HDU. I'm happy to provide check-ins, cooking or meal prep services, or companionship. House hold services I can help with are cooking/baking, cleaning, and laundry.

Faith is super responsible and also super fun! Our son loves spending time with her. Highly recommend.
