Hi, I'm Shak! As the eldest in a large family, childcare has been a part of my life from a young age, and over the past 15 years I've worked primarily with newborns and toddlers, though I genuinely love kids of all ages. I bring an empathy-first approach to every family I work with. For infants, I specialize in sleep training and mother's helper support, and I'm happy to work alongside new parents through that journey every step of the way. I also focus on early language development through textures, sounds, rhythm, and music. With toddlers, I lean into interest-led play — imagination building, curiosity about the world, early reading and counting. For school-age kids and teens, I emphasize active listening, healthy boundaries, and creating safe spaces for authentic expression. I also have meaningful experience with neurodiverse children who benefit from a different level of engagement and care. And since I studied classical text and diction, I love putting that to use — making up plays, collaborative storytelling, theatre games, you name it. But I'm just as happy getting active: bike rides, fort building, kite flying at the beach, little hikes, and whatever else sparks joy. I have a very low cancellation rate. If I accept a booking I am committed and will be there. I also have a reliable vehicle. I'd love to be a part of your family's village. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi, my name is Selina, I am a mom/babysitter. I am double vaccinated and all shots are up to date, recent Tdap updated . I drive and I have Trustline certificate, also on HopSkipDrive platform. I drive kids to various activities all the time. I am fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin, read/write/speak, I can help if you want your children to have more exposure to these languages. I had a BS degree in health education and over 14 years of work experiences with SFUSD Gen Ed and SDC/autism focused classes. I have a lot of experience working with kids of all kinds/ages, also PT, OT, Speech experiences. All those years I work, I have become a person with a lot of patience, know how to de-escalated tantrums. Also, I worked with kids in after school hours and tutored kids from AFY/PKS/CAIS. I’m also a mom of 2 kids 7 & 9 yrs old. We often take kids outings like Zoo, Cal Academy, playgrounds to explore. Children’s safety/mental wellness is my top priority! I am very familiar with all the babies routines from changing diapers to potty training, and I know how crazy the house can be! Sometimes, parents just need a break or an extra pair of hands! I’m a non smoker, no drugs and clean driving record, CPR&First Aid trained. I would love to work with your family! Feel free to message me if you have any questions!

Dear Parents, My name is Selena (Yang). I have over 8 years of childcare experience, with more than 8,000 hours working with infants as well as children of different ages up to teenagers. I am fluent in English and Mandarin. I volunteered for half a year in an orphanage in china in 2016, taking care of six disabled infants daily, and also worked as a preschool summer teacher. I once cared for a newborn boy with surgery from 9 days old until he was 5 months, which deepened my love for children and appreciation for life. I am CPR certified for infants and children, responsible, patient, and always on time. I believe babysitting is not only about care, but also about giving love and helping kids grow. I am also comfortable with pets (I’ve raised dogs for more than 10 years) and can assist with light housework if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your family. Thank you for your time.
