$20 per hour for 1 child

I have work as an Elementary teachers assistant for the last two years. I’m currently in the process of receiving my para educator certification. I love working with kids I find that I can communicate with them very easily using not only the tools i’ve learned from past jobs but with some of the tools I’ve learned through my younger siblings who have communication disabilities. I can take small pets such as dogs and cats. I also help coach a rugby team so I think i’ve been able to master patience and understanding with anyone honestly.

Booked by 1 family in Pacifica, CA

Hi families! For over 5 years, I have experience taking care of children of all ages. My love and dedication for children led me to do social work in the interior of São Paulo in indigenous villages and orphanages, where I had the opportunity to care for and interact with children of different ages and cultures. I have references from some mothers and fathers who have entrusted their children to me, and I can provide their contact details so that you can check my skills and competence as a babysitter. I have a driver's license, first aid and firefighter training, and I can help children with their homework, including in English. Regarding activities with children, I love telling stories that take them to a magical world of their own and develop linguistic and cognitive skills, or playing games that stimulate logical reasoning, memory, cooperation and problem solving. Oh, and I also feel comfortable and love any type of pet. I appreciate your attention and consideration.

Booked by 2 families in Pacifica, CA

Hi! My name is Pamela, and I am currently a student at City College of San Francisco (CCSF) studying Child Development. I am a friendly, bubbly, and caring person who loves working with children, helping families, and creating positive experiences for those around me. I have hands-on experience working with children as a Teacher Aide at a preschool, where I assist with classroom activities, supervise children, support their social and emotional development, and help create a safe, fun, and engaging learning environment. I also have volunteer experience working with children through summer programs, organizing activities such as arts and crafts, cooking projects, games, outdoor adventures, and field trips. Watching children learn, grow, and have fun is something I truly enjoy. In addition to my childcare experience, I have over five years of customer service experience, which has helped me develop strong communication skills, patience, reliability, and the ability to adapt quickly to different situations. I am comfortable interacting with people of all ages and pride myself on being dependable, organized, and trustworthy. I am available to provide childcare services, including babysitting, homework help, playtime activities, meal preparation, bedtime routines, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to meet each family's individual needs. I also offer pet care services. As a cat owner myself, I understand the importance of ensuring pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. Whether it's feeding, playtime, companionship, cleaning litter boxes, walks, or general pet care, I am happy to help keep your furry family members happy and safe. In addition, I provide household services to help busy families manage their daily routines. These services can include light housekeeping, tidying up play areas, organizing, laundry, meal preparation, washing dishes, running errands, and helping maintain a clean and comfortable home environment. My goal is to provide families with peace of mind by being a reliable, caring, and responsible helping hand. Whether you need childcare, pet care, or household assistance, I am committed to creating a positive experience and supporting your family's needs. I look forward to connecting with you and helping however I can!

Booked by 1 family in Pacifica, CA

Hi! I’m a responsible, patient, and reliable caregiver with 4+ years of childcare experience. I spent 3 years working in an after-school program with children ages 6–12, and for the past 1.5 years I’ve been caring for two wonderful children who are now 2.5 and 5 years old. I’ve also cared for infants (4–9 months old) through occasional babysitting jobs, so I’m comfortable with bottle feeding, diaper changes, naps, and bedtime routines. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Nursing, which gave me a foundation in child safety, health, and development. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, have reliable transportation, and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can thrive. Whether we’re reading stories, doing crafts, playing outside, or winding down with a bedtime routine, I love keeping kids engaged while making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Paulina arrived on time and was sweet and professional! She took great care of my 4-month old baby, played with her, fed her, and rocked her to sleep
