Booked by 10 families in Greenbrae, CA

Hi! My name is Bella and I am a freshman at Dominican University of California. I was born and raised in San Francisco! I am fluent in Spanish and can understand/speak basic Korean! I am offering childcare, senior care, and household assistance. I love working with children and have helped care for my two younger sisters since I was very young. I am also a trained babysitter through the American Red Cross! I am active, responsible, and can also help with tutoring or homework support! I love to play sports and run around, but I also love a nice day in with calm activities! I have experience in taking care of young children in my family and keeping them entertained! I really hope to gain new experience in babysitting while providing a safe and fun environment! I can also provide household support. I can cook, clean, run errands, and organize. Whatever you need to make your home life easier and more comfortable! I am hoping to learn new skills, gain work experience, meet new people, and provide dependable support to families. I look forward to the opportunity to help your family out!

I’m delighted to recommend Bella! Our 8 month old baby took to her immediately. He is going thru a lot of pain with teething right now and I was concerned about bringing in someone, but her calm and warm energy was exactly what baby needed. She also sent great updates and pictures throughout her time with him, and provided the most detailed notes of their time together that I’ve received from any sitter, which is especially helpful given that our little guy isn’t feeling well. She also cared for our and left the kitchen and play area clean and tidy! We are so grateful, big thank you Bella. We loo forward to your next visit!

Booked by 8 families in Greenbrae, CA

Hi there! My name is Leticia. I’m 26 years old and originally from Brazil. I’ve been working as a nanny for 7 years and have experience with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and known for being caring, responsible, patient, and creative. Throughout the years, I’ve worked in different settings, including nanny share with infants and caring for +3 children at once, which made me comfortable managing routines, multitasking, and adapting to each child’s needs. I enjoy exploring outdoors with kids, and when we’re inside, getting creative with arts and crafts and engaging activities. I’m available for occasional babysitting and date nights, primarily in Marin County, but I’m also open to San Francisco. I have my own car, a clean driving record, and I speak fluent English and Portuguese. Strong references are available upon request. I’d love to help out! 🌻💕
