Warm, attentive caregiver specializing in infants and young children Serving: San Francisco • Oakland • Berkeley Hi, I’m Narender — “Bella” to little ones. I provide warm, attentive care for infants and young children, staying attuned to each child’s cues, developmental stage, and natural rhythm while following the routines families already have in place. I help create a calm, predictable flow to the day—from playtime and feedings to naps and early evening routines—so children feel comfortable, supported, and settled. I also enjoy taking children on neighborhood walks, visiting nearby parks, and encouraging safe, age-appropriate exploration through play. Families appreciate my calm presence, thoughtful communication, and dependable follow-through. My goal is to provide care that feels steady and reassuring while respecting each family’s preferences and expectations. I’m especially well-suited for families seeking dependable daytime or evening support and enjoy building ongoing relationships with families over time. Additional Notes • 3-hour minimum per booking (longer bookings preferred for evenings and weekends). • Child-focused care, with light tidying of the child’s play area and items used during care.

Narender was so extremely attentive of my little one and immediately made him feel comfortable. He usually requires a little time to open up but I could tell he immediately felt safe with her. She was a rockstar to have watch our little one and I knew he was in great hands almost immediately.

Booked by 172 families in Piedmont, CA

Hi! My name is Phia and I would be happy to work with you. I have been working with children professionally since I was 16 but babysat before then. I have worked with children of varying ages, from infants 3 months and older, toddlers, elementary age, all the way up to young teenagers preparing for high school. I graduated from the University of San Francisco with a BA in sociology in May 2022. I now work as a project coordinator supervising youth development and policy at a local non-profit. I still work with babysitting families 1-2 times a week. In the Bay Area, I have worked as an after-school program leader for the YMCA in SFUSD, as well as a classroom aid. Beyond this, I have worked as an interim babysitter and nanny for various families before and during the pandemic. Through my time with the YMCA and other organizations, I have been trained in childhood development and creative education. I enjoy working with kids because it helps me keep in tune with my ability to empathize and stay creative. Children are the expression of a community, so staying in tune with the needs and experiences of youth is better for the community as a whole. Booking and payment policy: Same day cancellation, if you cancel within 4 hours of the booking start time, you are agreeing to pay me 1/2 of lost wages.

Phia is so great with my kids! She and my toddler especially get along great, and she does an awesome job playing with him. Highly recommend.

Booked by 17 families in Piedmont, CA

Hi, I’m Summer! I’m a preschool teacher and artist who absolutely loves working with kids. I’ve been caring for little ones since I was 15, from tiny babies to big kids, and I’m CPR, First Aid, and TrustLine certified. When I’m not in the classroom, I bring the fun to birthday parties as a face painter and balloon artist — so you can count on me to keep kids entertained with creativity, play, and lots of laughs. I love painting, singing, dancing, and exploring nature, and I enjoy sharing that joy with the children I care for.

After Sky left my son lovingly said about 10 minutes later I wonder how she is doing...that shows you how much fun they had.

Booked by 31 families in Piedmont, CA

Hello, my name is Ky’Aira and I think I am a great fit for your family! I am 28 and went to Northridge State and moved to Sacramento to get more teaching experience. While I was a teacher there, I taught infants up to 5 year olds. Many families that I bonded with became family and would contact me for watching their child. I became apart of these families and would come to birthdays or just come over on weekends to hang. I thing it’s important to stimulate their minds and bodies. I enjoy creating art and sensory activities for younger children and also anything in a kitchen! Going outside and playing is something that will never be missed because I enjoy outside play and exploring the world around us! I do have teaching background so their will be something to learn throughout basic activities during the day. Putting children to sleep I’ve been told I’m a pro since I am very observant of the body language and needs that child may need to help them sleep. I am more of an academic nanny in the sense of everything we do has a learning component and enjoying independent play to explore their imagination and creativity. I also am very organized and cleaning meaning if you need me to help with anything extra I probably already have done it or would love to help! I have worked with multiple families as a full time nanny and am most knowledgeable with infants up until 3. If you hire me, whether it’s full time or sometimes your child will have an amazing time and you’ll receive pictures and videos during that time so you can see what your loved one is doing. Hoping to hear from you soon!

Kyaira was so great with my 2 year old! So friendly, so professional! IMO the perfect babysitter!
