Find a babysitter in San Francisco, CA

My name is Lilian but everyone calls me Lily. I’m from Mexico City. I was an au pair for two years and been working as a nanny for more than four years now. I have over 1000 hours of experience with kids from 4 months old to 13 years old. I’m responsible, open minded, outgoing and flexible. I love to do any kind of activities, outdoors and indoors! Being an au pair during the pandemic gave me a lot of personal and professional resources to make the children have a good time and learn. I have a BA in Developmental Psychology, an MA in Sociology and currently doing a PhD in Education. I’m bilingual, so I can help with Spanish/English homework or assignments or just to practice both languages. The most important thing for me will always be the security of your kids so I'll make sure that they are safe in every place we are. That being said, I’m fully vaccinated, boostered and COVID cautious. I don’t have a car but I do have driver’s license and clean record, so driving in parents car won’t be a problem. And my main means of transportation is my e-bike that takes me everywhere! I have excellent references from all the families I have worked with if they are needed!

*Note* Mainly accepting evenings or date nights. I would love to add more families to my roster of regulars; please feel free to text me if you are interested in a particular date that may not be listed. Hello parents! My name is Idallis (eyed-al-is). I’m a 27 year old Bay Area native with 9 years of experience as a member of Urbansitter. I have a background check, up to date vaccinations (including COVID booster and flu shot), 170+ positive reviews, and almost 700 bookings via this website. As a member of UrbanSitter, I’ve had full-time and part-time positions as well as one live-in position in 2020 with many wonderful families; additionally, I’ve been fortunate enough to have long-term relationships with some who have booked me regularly for date-nights for years. I use positive reinforcement as a form of discipline, and approach every situation with empathy and patience. What sets me apart is that I love my job, and most of the time - it doesn’t feel like one! I love working with children and encourage them to embrace their independence and explore their interests. While I work with a variety of age ranges, cumulatively I have the most experience with 1 to 2 year olds. However, I have gained a ton of experience with infants in the past three years (and I’m currently working with one!). I'm kind, charismatic, patient, and responsible. I studied art history for two years. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, baking, crocheting, and hanging out with my very affectionate cats or discovering locally owned restaurants with friends. Personal Policies/Requests: - I have a $120 minimum for each booking. Thank you! - I don’t drive so an Uber home or compensation is appreciated for evening bookings but of course, not required. - Please book alternative childcare if your child(ren) have symptoms of or have been diagnosed with COVID-19, flu, HFM, pink eye, and other highly contagious illnesses. I will also notify you if I have symptoms of anything contagious so that we can plan together accordingly.

Hello, I’m Nancy and I love kids! I am a very reliable, safe, fun former high school teacher (20 + yrs) have also taught preschool and middle school. I’m excellent at caring for children of any age, and I have experience working with children who are neurodivergent. My own lovely daughter is now 23! I most enjoy being a babysitter so I can focus on one or two (or 3) children. I love doing fun and creative things with kids -art, building, dancing, playing games, reading etc. I bring optional art projects and books based on the interests of your child, but I like to follow their inclinations. They always come up with something so interesting. I like to nurture their inner creativity, imagination & sense of self sufficiency. I will follow the routine you set. I continue to work with the families who hired me on Urban Sitter offsite. I am always happy to FaceTime in advance. Thank you for your consideration.
