Booked by 60 families in Pacifica, CA

My name is Nicole and I would love to assist you and your family! I have my Bachelors degree from San Francisco State as well as my teaching credential and Masters in Education from Notre Dame de Namur University. I am a full-time middle school teacher in the Peninsula. I work closely with children from 5th - 8th grade. In my other past experience working with kids, my duties included preparing snack time and activities such as arts and crafts, science, and music. I also love to spend time outdoors and play games with younger children! I have a handful of nieces and nephews, so I am very comfortable with looking after the younger ones. I am currently in the middle of my school year so I am not available for regular positions, but would love to babysit for you during occasional weeknights or weekends. Thank you so much! And I hope to hear from you soon.

Hi, I’m Samara! I’m an experienced and caring nanny with a true passion for childcare. I volunteered for 8 years in a daycare in Brazil, caring for kids from 6 months to 7 years old, and I’ve been babysitting in the U.S. since 2016, including 2 years as an au pair. Families describe me as responsible, trustworthy, and always on time. I love helping children learn, develop, and have fun! I look forward to meeting you and your family! Sincerely, Samara

Samara was on time and adapted well to the two new kids she was looking after like a professional. You could immediately tell she was experienced and comfortable taking are of the young ones and keeping them engaged and learning. Highly recommend!

Booked by 13 families in Pacifica, CA

Hello, my name is Michelle. I am a mother of adult children and a proud grandmother of eight. I have been caring for children for many years, including helping raise my grandchildren from newborn through school age. My oldest grandchild is now 28, and my youngest is 9. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. Most recently, I cared for a baby boy for a year until the family relocated. In February, I also helped a family by caring for their 3-year-old and assisting as a mother’s helper after they welcomed a newborn. In addition to childcare, I have experience with school drop-offs and pick-ups, and I am comfortable with flexible, changing schedules. I provide household support services during the evening hours. My responsibilities include folding laundry, meal preparation, cooking dinner, cleaning up after meals, loading and unloading the dishwasher, and vacuuming kitchen and dining areas. I worked with a family in San Francisco for over three years, both before and after COVID. During that time, I assisted with laundry, organizing kitchen cabinets, closets, and children's wardrobes, maintaining kitchen cleanliness, and preparing vegetables and ingredients for the week. I am flexible and dependable, and I am happy to take on whatever household tasks are needed to help keep a home running smoothly and efficiently. I also provide pet care and dog sitting, as I truly love animals. I am reliable, nurturing, and experienced, and I would be happy to support your family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. ⸻

Michelle was very punctual and communicative! Thank you Michelle!

I am a mother of two amazing girls. When they were toddlers I had them in a co op preschool where the parents worked a few days a week. I really enjoyed it and my girls did as well. That was definitely my calling for working with children. I am presently a nanny for a six month old three days a week and I am comfortable with multiple children at one time. I love babies, toddlers and kids of all ages. Some of my favorite activities are reading books, playing games and exploring the outdoors.
