Gloria 2 reviews
San Francisco
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Gloria, I’m currently in school studying to become a Medical Assistant, and I’m offering reliable childcare and household support. I’ve been babysitting for about six years. I started by caring for my nephews and soon began helping other families with babies, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I love spending time with children playing, helping with homework, reading, and keeping them engaged in fun, safe activities. I’m also comfortable with pets and can easily follow any family rules or routines. I’m happy to help with light cleaning, laundry, and simple meal prep as part of my care. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and very easygoing. I truly enjoy helping households run smoothly and giving kids a positive, caring environment. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!

We couldn’t have asked for a better babysitter for our infant! She was incredibly attentive, caring, and patient, always making sure our little one felt safe, happy, and loved. From gentle snuggles to playful moments that brought out the biggest smiles, she made every minute fun while still being so responsible. It was such a relief knowing our baby was in such capable and warm hands—and now our kiddo can’t wait to see her again. We’re so grateful for her and would trust her again in a heartbeat!

Booked by 1 family in Millbrae, CA

Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a student at UC Irvine with experience working with children in a variety of settings. As a former swim instructor, I’ve worked with kids of all ages, helping them build confidence while always putting safety first. Through that role, I received CPR training and was previously CPR certified, giving me a strong foundation in emergency response. I’ve also volunteered at an elementary school, where I supervised and supported children in a positive and encouraging environment, and participated in youth programs that strengthened my leadership and communication skills. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors, I strive to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and someone families can count on. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children!

We hired Jocelyn for a one-day sitting job and she was wonderful. She arrived right on time, was polite and respectful with us, and was genuinely sweet and caring with our son. He had so much fun with her, which says everything. We'd happily have her back and recommend her to any family looking for someone kind and reliable.

$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Samara, fully vaccinated, CPR and First-Aid Certified nanny. Experienced with infant sleep routines and sleep training methods. I have more than 10 years of experience working with kids of all ages. I also have 18 months experience with special needs. I love spending time with children supporting them to grow in a fun, safe, caring and stimulating environment. I'm very responsible, dedicated, patient and reliable. I always like to work as a team and have good communication with the parents, so we both can feel comfortable to talk about the children's development, their behavior and also about adjustments that we might need to do while we work together. I'm a safe driver who loves to drive, clean DL records and a reliable car that I can use in case the family needs it. Feel free to reach me out if you'd like to know more about me or my experience. I'll be happy to answer you.

Sam is a fantastic caregiver! She occasionally cares for my 9 month old and 3 year old. She’s always on time, very sharp and professional, and genuinely engages with the kids. I appreciate that she asks great questions to ensure she’s following our routines and preferences. I always have peace of mind when she’s watching my kids. I highly recommend Sam!

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Neidy Lopez, but everyone calls me Sucely, you’re welcome to call me whichever you feel most comfortable with. I’m 23 years old and bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. This is my first time using this app. I have over five years of babysitting experience working with a private family, which is why I don’t have reviews here yet but I bring reliable hands on experience and strong references upon request. I’m excited to connect with new families and provide the same loving and reliable care. I have completed high school, took a child development class on CCSF, and hold a CPR, First Aid and babysitting certification from Redcross. I have experience providing childcare care, I’m known for being patient, responsible, and attentive. I’m very flexible and adaptable, and I feel comfortable working in different environments and with diverse family needs. I enjoy helping with daily routines, playtime, and creating a safe, nurturing space. I value trust, communication, and kindness, and I take pride in providing dependable care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be someone you can rely on.

I loudly recommend Neidy (Sucely) as a babysitter and caregiver. She has been an incredible part of our family for the past five years, helping us raise our son from the time he was a newborn. Neidy is loving, responsible, patient, and truly invested in a child’s development. Thanks to her care and dedication, our son has grown into a happy, confident child and even speaks some Spanish. Neidy is no longer working with us only because we are moving out of state, but she will always be part of our family. Any family would be extremely lucky to have her.

Booked by 3 families in Millbrae, CA

Hi, I’m Lisa! I have over six years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I’ve worked as a preschool teacher, a special education aide, and a babysitter for many families. My experience includes preparing meals, driving to appointments and extracurriculars, helping with homework, bedtime routines, and providing support with daily needs like feeding, bathing, and toileting. I value compassion, patience, and play in every interaction. I love pretend play, building, dolls, reading stories, arts and crafts, and exploring nature with kids. I’m not afraid to get silly and believe children thrive when they feel safe, seen, and joyful. I’m also experienced with pet care! I currently help care for two cats and an elderly dog by giving medication, going for walks, and providing lots of affection. I grew up with both large and small dogs, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes. Families can count on me to be dependable, nurturing, and fun while keeping your little ones safe and happy.
