Christiana $25 per hour for 1 child

I have a thorough background in childcare and working with children. I was a camp counselor at the Burlingame Parks and Recreation Adventure camp for 5 years and have been CPR certified twice. I am passionate and love to see children learn and grow throughout my time with them. I like to create a fun environment with the potential to ask questions, be curious and have fun as all children should. I am studying Biology so I love to expose children to the outdoor, information about our environment and other fun animal facts to further enrich their experience. I can’t wait to meet you all and share my kindness, passion and enthusiasm with you!

Abbie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Abbie and I am in my junior year at San Francisco State University and I am majoring in Liberal Studies with a concentration in Elementary School Teaching and minoring in Special Education. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I have worked at an after school day care (ages 5-12) for 2 years while I was in high school and at an early childhood education center (ages 2-3) while I am at school. I am also currently working at an after school program with students from TK to 8th grade. I have also babysat children of all ages numerous times since I was 14. I enjoy doing many activities with children like crafts, playing outside, reading books, playing games, etc. I have also pet sit animals including dogs, cats, and goats and I am able to walk, feed, and play with any animal. I have a standard poodle at home named Charley and petsitting might help me miss him a little less. I have housesit many times and I can clean, run errands, do laundry, organize, etc. I am CPR certified and have a valid drivers license. I am a very caring and empathetic person and I have always believed my duty in life is to help others.

Renad $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Renad, and I’m excited to apply for a babysitting position! I have several years of experience working with children of various age groups, from toddlers to pre-teens. I've spent time helping kids with their homework, especially in math and geometry, and I love seeing them gain confidence in subjects they once found difficult. In terms of child care, I provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I enjoy doing creative and engaging activities like arts and crafts, story time, and indoor games. I’m especially good at helping with schoolwork and can provide tutoring in math if needed. I’m dependable, patient, and always keep communication open with parents. I’m also trained in basic child safety and have experience following routines, managing mealtimes, and handling bedtime routines. If you're looking for someone who’s caring, reliable, and can offer both childcare and academic support, I’d love to be considered! Although I’m a bit scared of dogs, I’m completely fine around cats.
