Zayne 3 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Daly City, CA

Hi families! I’m Zayne, a babysitter with over 5 years of hands-on experience with children from newborns to school-age, supporting their social and educational development. I love spending time with kids at parks, playgrounds, and craft spaces — creating structured, playful routines from arts & crafts to imaginative games. I observe each child’s behavior to find the best approach for them, always respecting their pace so they feel safe and comfortable. Currently available mostly on weekends and open to occasional dates. Feel free to reach out — whether it’s making your routine smoother or giving you a well-deserved date night!

Booked by 3 families in Daly City, CA

Hi! My name is Melissa and I’m a full-time healthcare professional working in San Francisco. I offer evening and weekend babysitting for families who need reliable care for date nights or occasional help. I have several years of babysitting experience and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with dinner, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines, and I always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment while parents are away. Families describe me as responsible, patient, and dependable. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children with someone they trust, and I always strive to make evenings smooth and stress-free for everyone. I’m based in Mission Bay and happy to help families in nearby neighborhoods such as Dogpatch, Potrero Hill, SoMa, and surrounding areas. I’m also comfortable with pets and light tidying after activities. Looking forward to helping families enjoy a worry-free night out!

She is simply the best! My toddler daughter loved every second she spent with Melissa!

Azul 4 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 8 families in Daly City, CA

Hi, my name is Azul, I have a degree in Social Communication. I have 6 years of experience in taking care of babies, toddlers + kids. Have CPR and First Aid certifications. Bilingual: English and Spanish. California DL with a clean record (experience driving kids).

Azul filled in for us when our nanny was out of town. She was absolutely amazing with our 1-year old daughter. She communicated so well with her and really helped her feel comfortable almost immediately. She played so well with our daughter and at the end of each day, our daughter was so happy. We couldn't have asked for a better short-term caretaker. We would feel incredibly comfortable using Azul for the long-term, and we can't wait to use Azul again in the future!
