Deborah 3 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Deborah, and I’m an experienced nanny with over 10 years of dedicated childcare experience. I began my first nanny position at 18 and was a live-in caregiver for two years. I have since worked with children ranging from infants as young as 6 months to preteens. Over the years, I’ve provided excellent care including diaper changes, bath time, meal preparation, school pick-ups, after-school activities, pet care, and house sitting. With a bachelor’s degree in Public Health, I’m passionate about fostering nurturing, educational, and engaging environments for children. I love creating activities that encourage curiosity, creativity, and movement, helping kids burn energy in healthy, fun ways. I’m active, dependable, and deeply enjoy supporting families by providing not just care, but genuine partnership in their children’s growth and development. And as an animal lover, I’m always happy to care for pets, too (unfortunately not cats as I am allergic).

Debbie has babysat for my grandchildren. I have known her for many years since she was in her teens as she was my high school student. She is extremely good with children, fun, caring and reliable. I highly recommend her for any childcare position.

Hannah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Hannah. I grew up in Santa Rosa and moved to San Francisco in August of 2024. I have a bachelor's degree in environmental and ocean sciences from the University of San Diego and I recently started working as an office engineer in construction. I happily nannied part time for a family for the last two years while living here in San Francisco. Since taking on a new role in the office I can no longer meet their scheduling needs, though I still babysit for them occasionally and formed a very close bond with their girls. I love spending time with kids and I'm trying to make some extra money to save in addition to my office job. I'd love to take on occasional babysitting roles. Please don't hesitate to reach out to chat or with any questions :)

Sarah $35 per hour for 1 child

Hey parents! 
I’m Sarah and with over 10 years of experience babysitting and teaching, I’m here to make your life a little easier by providing awesome childcare, tutoring, and household support. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I’m confident I can be a great fit for your family. I have a master's degree am fluent in Mandarin and would be happy to teach your kids Mandarin and tutor them after school in most subjects. Background I’m a 4th Generation San Franciscan who works as a SaaS Account Executive 9-5 and would love to support you with your children in the evenings and weekends. Childcare Services As the oldest of three (with siblings three and six years younger), I basically grew up raising children. I started babysitting in 4th grade and kept at it throughout middle and high school, mostly working with kids aged 4 to 12. After college, I moved to Taiwan and taught English to Kindergarten and 1st graders and tutored high school students for three years. So whether your child is a toddler or a teen, I’ve got plenty of experience with all ages! I’m fluent in Mandarin and would love to teach your kids the language! I also have a master’s degree from the University of Bath and a bachelor’s from UC Davis, so I’m happy to help tutor in most subjects (just don’t ask me for math help, haha). I’m into sports like volleyball and tennis, so if your kids love being active, I’d be happy to play with them. Plus, I’ve got a 2017 Lexus NX200T and can assist with carpooling. I’m currently working on getting re-certified in CPR and can share references if you’d like! Pet Care Services I love animals, and I’m comfortable handling dogs, cats, and even larger pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or playtime, I’ve got it covered—even if your furry friend sheds a lot. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family soon!

Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi! I’m Iliana — a caregiver from San Francisco with hands-on experience caring for twins and toddlers. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids of all ages. I also offer light housekeeping, after-school pickup’s. I have my own transportation and am comfortable navigating around the city. I’d love to support a family looking for dependable childcare with a positive attitude and strong communication.

Get along super well with our 5 year old girl. She is warm, cheerful, reliable, and excellent with communications. Also she is very open to helping out with light cleaning around the house and other household or personal assistant type of tasks. Highly recommend!
