Hi! I’m Melissa, a reliable and caring sitter based in Pacifica. I’ve spent several years nannying and babysitting throughout college and beyond, working with children from newborns to pre-teens. I’ve cared for infants as young as three weeks old (including overnight support), as well as toddlers and older kids. I really enjoy creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment whether that’s helping with routines, playtime, or simply being a steady and positive presence. I also bring a strong background in supporting families through my professional experience, which has helped me develop patience, organization, and clear communication. I understand how important it is for parents to feel at ease and informed. I’m happy to help with light household tasks, meal prep, or homework support. Looking forward to connecting!
“Melissa is a really sweet and responsible babysitter. She helped us with our twins (21 mos) and 4.5 year old last summer on the weekends. She is playful and kind and extremely helpful around the house. ”
Hi, I'm Michelle! I've been working with young children for over 10 years, from summer camps, to babysitting, to working in preschools. I have two years of formal full-time teaching experience, plus many years of volunteer experience in Extended School Year programs for children with disabilities. I have also taught drama and musical theatre to young children. My first priority is making sure children feel safe and supported, and I look to strike a balance between fun activities, and calm moments to decompress. My background in preschool classroom environments helps me to stay calm in moments of transition, and has provided me many positive guidance tools to help children regulate their emotions and express their needs. I am also happy to provide pet care and household cleaning/assistance as needed. I'm originally from New York, grew up in New Jersey, and now live in San Francisco's beautiful Inner Richmond with my partner and our rambunctious dog, Maisy. I speak conversational Italian, love to sing, and have a degree in Theatre. In my spare time, I can be found outdoors with my dog, cooking, doing yoga, and playing ice hockey recreationally. I look forward to meeting you!
“Michelle saved us with a last-minute booking when another sitter cancelled. She was very prompt, responsive, and clear with her communication. She was kind and engaging immediately with the kids (ages 2 & 4); very thoughtful and helpful. Did a great job keeping it fun while redirecting some rowdier kid energy. Would love to have her another time!”
I am a CMU developmental psychology student with experience in a children’s lab, preschool, and ABA center. I have also volunteered at a children’s hospital and daycare, developing patience, empathy, and strong caregiving skills.
About Me Hello! I am a caring, dependable, patient, and energetic childcare professional with many years of experience working with children of different ages, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. I currently work as a Head Teacher in early childhood education and an after-school program, where I provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children to learn and grow. I truly enjoy working with children and love planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, educational games, and hands-on learning experiences. I understand that every child is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, interests, routines, and individual needs. Safety, patience, communication, and building trusting relationships with children and families are very important to me. I am responsible, friendly, outgoing, and someone parents can feel comfortable having in their home and caring for their children. I believe children should feel safe, supported, respected, and encouraged while also having fun. I am looking forward to connecting with families who need a reliable and experienced nanny or babysitter. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family and children can trust and depend on. Looking For I am looking for part-time, occasional, weekend, evening, or date-night nanny and babysitting opportunities. I am comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. I am happy to help with children's activities, playtime, reading, arts and crafts, homework support, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, and keeping children's areas organized. I am looking for a family that values a caring, dependable, patient, and experienced caregiver.
Hi, I’m Shelby! I have a bachelor’s degree in Music Education and three years of experience teaching in public elementary schools. I have been babysitting for 15+ years and also have two and a half years of experience as a full-time nanny. I have worked with infants, toddlers, and school-age children. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and activities, tutoring, preparing meals, pet care, help with household chores, running errands, overnight care, and planning age-appropriate outings and activities. As a public school teacher, I worked with students with varying abilities and needs. I taught in both breakout special needs classes and integrated classrooms. I’ve also nannied for a child with autism. I’m a lover of all outdoor activities and enjoy active supervision and getting involved in play rather than just sitting and watching the kids. I also enjoy puzzles, arts and crafts, board games, music, books - anything that sparks a bit of creativity.
