Hello, I’m Rosie. I’m CPR-certified and provide reliable, thoughtful care for the people you love. I’ve taken Early Childhood Development courses, which allowed me to work as a teacher’s assistant and gain gain hands-on experience supporting children in structured, nurturing environments. I’ve also spent years caring for younger family members and supporting my sister, who is on the autism spectrum. These experiences have taught me patience, flexibility, and the importance of meeting people where they are. I’m attentive, dependable, and enjoy supporting children with routines, learning, and play. I also offer senior care, pet care, and light household help, and I take pride in being someone families can trust and feel comfortable relying on.

We had the pleasure of working with Diana as the nanny for our 2½-year-old daughter, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Diana is extremely professional, dependable, and always on time. She consistently went above and beyond to support our family in every way possible. Diana cared for our daughter in our home with warmth, patience, and genuine attention. In addition to providing excellent childcare, she helped with light household responsibilities such as folding and organizing laundry, making beds, and keeping our daughter’s space neat and well organized. She also prepared healthy meals for our daughter and made sure her daily routine was followed. Diana regularly picked up our daughter from daycare and took her to the park or library, creating engaging and fun learning experiences. She supported our child’s development through reading, play, and age-appropriate activities, and she also helped with bath time and bedtime routines. Most importantly, Diana created a safe, loving, and structured environment where our daughter thrived. Any family would be fortunate to have her as their nanny, and we would gladly hire her again.

Emma 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 8 families in Daly City, CA

I recently graduated from CU Boulder with a degree in Business Marketing and moved to San Francisco. I'm excited to meet families in the area who could use some extra help with childcare, pets, or around the house. I'm a very organized and hands-on person — I love staying busy, planning fun activities and keeping things running smoothly. I enjoy cooking, baking, crafts and anything creative! I'm also always happy to help with light chores or meal prep if needed. Childcare Experience: - Worked at a local country club’s childcare center from July 2019–March 2020, and again the following summer. I cared for kids from 3 months to 12 years old, planned games and crafts, and got to know many families well. - Babysat regularly throughout high school for children ages 6 months to 13 years, gaining experience with a wide range of ages, routines, and personalities. - Since graduating, I’ve worked with several families caring for infants (around 4 months to 1 year), which has given me even more hands-on experience with feeding, naps, and early development. - Comfortable helping with homework (especially math) and school projects. - Happy to drive kids to activities or school if needed. Pet Care:
- I’m an animal lover and have experience pet sitting with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to feed, walk, or just hang out and give them some extra love and attention! If you’re looking for someone responsible, organized, and great with kids and pets, I’d love to chat! I’m happy to help as a regular babysitter, occasional sitter, or even assist with house sitting and other household needs.

Emma was great! Punctual, very sweet with our son, and super responsive. Will definitely book again!
