Elizabeth $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if I can help you. (((IHSS Certified Provider))) Housekeeping is something I’ve returned to during these turbulent times. I have lifelong experience working alongside my mother, providing elderly care and home support for those in need. I’ve always appreciated the wisdom and heartfelt conversations I’ve shared with seniors—maybe I’m an old soul? I’ve also had tons of experience with babies and kids. My first niece was born when I was just 5 years old—and after that, the babies just kept on coming. It honestly felt like there was a new one every year. At one point, I stopped asking who was pregnant and just assumed someone was. 😅 Now I have over 13 nieces and nephews, and I’ve helped care for all of them. From baby duty to wild toddler years, I’ve pretty much seen it all. I also have 7 great-nieces and great-nephews—so yes, the family just keeps growing! I’m a proud “Great Aunty”—no pun intended—but I really am the fun favorite. (I think I’ve earned the title!) Outside of caregiving and home support, I’m a deeply creative, artistic person. Music plays a huge role in my life—it inspires me, grounds me, and adds rhythm to everything I do. I’m the type of person who always has a song in mind, and I love meaningful lyrics, creative expression, and all things soulful. I find joy in good conversation, humor, and connecting with people on a real level. If you think we’d be a good fit, I’d love to chat. ~ Excited for our paths to cross ~

In my free time, I love to read, go on runs, play video games, and spend time with my girlfriend and our dog, Betty. I like to have fun and keep things light. I would be happy to help you with babysitting, pet-sitting, dog-walking, house-cleaning, whatever!

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 10 families in Daly City, CA

Hi! My name is Kate and I’m 23 born and raised in San Francisco. Currently I’m taking a gap year before continuing to law school next fall and would really like to continue working with kids till than. As a caregiver I really enjoy getting to know who the child really is so that I can meet at their level to be as helpful as possible. I love to have fun and explore with the kids I work with, even if it means jumping in muddy puddles outside. I am incredibly organized, on top of schedules/assignments, and am more than happy to help with a bit of housework. My schedule is very flexible so if there is a spontaneous date night or Sunday playdate, I am happy to jump in to help ease your world. I am CPR and First Aid certified and am fully up to date on all vaccinations/health needs. I am happy to provide documentation for any of that if you would like to see it. I also have a car that I can use to get to and from work, however, I would not be able to use it to transport kids. Prior to this past summer I don’t have much formal childcare experience, however I’ve been babysitting on and off since I was in high school. Over the summer I was a camp counselor for 3-6 year olds at the Greensboro Country Club and I also worked in their drop in daycare center which took kids 6 weeks-10 years. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your family more, so feel free to reach out!

Kate communicated well, on time, and took great care of our 3 year old in Noe Valley. we would recommend Kate and definitely look forward to her help in the future! thank you!
