Lily San Francisco
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lily and I recently graduated from UC Berkeley with a B.A. in Molecular and Cell Biology. I am looking for part time work while I finish up a few prerequisite classes this year. I babysat for several families consistently throughout high school, so I feel confident caring for children all ages. I was also a youth gymnastics coach for three years at UC Berkeley, so have experience creating a fun and positive environment while also prioritizing safety. I became EMT and BLS certified in 2022, so I am also able to respond to any health emergencies. Aside from childcare experience, I grew up with pets and have also house-sat for family and friends on many occasions, so am happy to help out with any of these tasks as well!

San Francisco
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Kira. I'm excited to meet you! I'm offering childcare and pet care for cats and dogs. I am a bay area native and have a certificate in Early Childhood Education. I was the lead teacher for a before and after school program in the San Mateo Foster City School District for years. Additionally, I have worked as a supervisor for K-6th grade summer camp as well as an assistant teacher in pre-school. I love arts and crafts, reading, being active outside, and making sure your little ones and fur babies are safe and happy. I've had both cats and dogs my whole life an love both! If you are looking for before school assistance, or a reliable sitter for your date night - I am here to help!

Kira was great with our 2yo daughter; she jumped in last minute (hired in the morning for an evening out) and was happy to get on the phone with us to get to know each other. Our daughter is a good little judge of character and really likes friendly, warm, attuned people, and she was having fun with Kira right away as we were leaving! We'd definitely hire Kira again.
