Felicity $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Felicity, and I am an 18-year-old college student majoring in Jazz Studies at SJSU. I offer child care, pet care, and household assistance services. I love working with children and have been babysitting kids ages 1–6 for the past six years . I have gained valuable experience caring for my many nieces, nephews, and family friends’ children of various ages. My responsibilities have included supervising playtime, preparing meals and snacks, helping with routines, keeping children entertained, and ensuring a safe and positive environment. As a musician, I enjoy sharing music with others and can even bring my electronic vibraphone to introduce children to music through fun activities, simple lessons, and creative play! I am also a vocalist and can sing lullabies, kids’ songs, and other simple songs for children! In addition to childcare, I am comfortable caring for pets, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I can also assist with light housekeeping, organizing, meal preparation, and other household tasks as needed. My community describes me as responsible, patient, trustworthy, communicative, reliable, and positive. My goal is to provide dependable care and peace of mind while creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for children and pets.

Sohyung Gabriella $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi! My name is Sohyung, and I’m an international medical graduate currently living in San Francisco. I moved here with my husband and am currently studying for my U.S. medical board exams while looking for a meaningful part-time position. I was born in Korea, grew up in Canada, and have lived in several countries including Hungary, where I completed medical school. Growing up with a younger sister who was born when I was 13, I naturally took on a caregiving role from a young age. I’ve also worked part-time as an English teacher for children during university, which strengthened my love for working with kids. I am calm, responsible, and attentive, with a strong understanding of child development and safety due to my medical training. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through creative play, reading, and educational activities. I would love to support your family in a reliable and caring way. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Jennifer $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm a full-time professional and mom to a wonderful 22-year-old daughter, with years of hands-on experience supporting others—whether through parenting, helping aging relatives, or caring for pets. I'm now looking to give back to my community by offering caregiving and household help in my free time. I’m known for being reliable, warm, and thoughtful. I bring both energy and empathy to everything I do, and genuinely enjoy connecting with people of all ages. Whether it’s assisting with errands, offering companionship to seniors, or helping maintain a calm and organized home, I take pride in being dependable and attentive. I also bring a set of professional skills that translate well into caregiving: I’m highly organized, detail-oriented, and analytical. I listen closely, anticipate needs, and follow through with care. When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, exploring the city, and finding new ways to support and connect with my community.

Edith $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Edith, and I’m a mom of three children (ages 6, 4, and 1). I’m offering child care, senior care, and pet care. I love working with children and have hands-on experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids through raising my own children and supporting other families. My experience includes feeding, diapering, naps, school routines, homework help, and engaging kids in reading, crafts, painting, dancing, and imaginative play. I encourage and uplift kids so they feel confident in who they are and what they love. I also have experience providing companion care for seniors, including helping with daily routines, meal preparation, errands, and offering meaningful companionship. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful, and I enjoy building genuine connections. In addition, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments. I can help with feeding, walking, playtime, and following specific care instructions. I’m comfortable with larger pets and those that shed.
