Neha $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Neha and I just moved to the area from Washington, DC! In DC, I served as a part time nanny of 2 children (ages 6 and 9) for 4 years. I also was the part time nanny of a 2 year old girl for 2 years. Additionally I have done many occasional babysitting gigs for a range of ages from infants to 14 year olds. I am passionate about childcare and am a very caring and kind nanny. I am willing to help with homework and am conscious of any rules that need to be maintained. I love to play and am always suggesting playing with toys, or playing outside to keep kids off screens! I have played everything from barbie to hide and seek to legos with kids and truly love it. I prioritize the safety of your children and am always available for communication on my phone. I like to keep parents updated with check-ins. I have a valid drivers license and am happy to drive but do not have a car. Overall, I truly love taking care of children and have extensive experience!

Tyler $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Tyler, and I was born and raised in Burlingame and recently moved to San Francisco! I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder and moved back home to start my career. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m excited to offer childcare, senior care, pet care, and household services to local families. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, caring for infants, toddlers, and kids of all ages. My responsibilities have included driving to activities, organizing crafts, lifeguarding, tutoring, and more. In addition to childcare, I’m experienced as a household assistant and can help with cooking, organizing, running errands, and managing household tasks. I’ve also cared for my own grandparents, so I’m comfortable providing senior care, whether it’s cooking meals, driving to appointments, assisting with daily tasks, or simply offering companionship. I pride myself on being responsible, trustworthy, and great with kids—always ensuring their safety while making sure they have fun. I look forward to supporting your family!

Julia Caroline $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Julia! I’m originally from Brazil, and I’ve always loved working with children. Back home, I was an English teacher for both kids and adults, and now I’m living in the U.S. as an au pair. These experiences have given me the chance to care for children of different ages, from babies to teenagers, and also to connect with them through both learning and play. I really enjoy spending time with kids in creative ways! Reading stories, painting, dancing around the living room, or just playing games that make them laugh. I’m also happy to help with homework, especially when it comes to English. For me, it’s important to make every activity both fun and meaningful. Besides childcare, I’m also very comfortable with pets. I grew up around animals and I love giving them attention, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just making sure they feel loved and cared for. At home, I can help with everyday tasks like light cleaning, laundry, organizing, meal prep, or errands. I like keeping things organized and cozy, so families can feel more at ease.
