Hi! My name is Jamie, and I am a clinical psychologist. I love working with kids and can provide tutoring, babysitting, pet sitting, and help with household tasks! I am available on weekday evenings and weekends. I have experience babysitting and tutoring elementary through middle school-aged students over the past 8 years. I have worked at several educational summer camps, a summer school, and a program that taught social-emotional skills to elementary-aged students. I also have experience providing one-on-one tutoring and babysitting for kids ages 4-13. I can provide tutoring for homework help or for educational enrichment. I also have experience teaching executive functioning strategies for organizing, prioritizing, and scheduling tasks, improving attention span, and managing distractibility. I love connecting with kids and finding creative ways to make learning fun and engaging. I enjoy helping kids explore their passions and express their creativity. I love creative writing, storytelling, playing sports and outdoor games, enjoying nature, and being silly with children. I also have 2 years of experience as a household assistant and enjoy completing household tasks to make things run smoothly. Through my graduate training, I have learned to be very reliable and organized and to communicate effectively. Please reach out if you are interested in tutoring or babysitting for your children or a household assistant!
“Jamie was on time, thorough with the job, and communicative, leaving the condo spotless. I would highly recommend her service.”
My name is Leah, and I’d be happy to help out with your kiddos! A little about me — I’m a graduate of Pomona College in Claremont, California, and recently moved to San Francisco. I’ve worked with children for many years as a camp counselor, tutor, and behavior interventionist for children with special needs. I also have several years of experience as a medical assistant, so I’m CPR-certified and have strong medical knowledge. I’ve been babysitting for about three years and have worked with kids of all ages. I’m happy to help with homework, school projects, or extracurricular activities. I love being outdoors and doing creative projects like arts and crafts. My schedule is very flexible, and I have a car for any transportation needs. I’d be glad to provide additional information or references — I look forward to meeting you and your family!
Hi! My name is Jhennifer, I’m Brazilian, and I'm currently living in San Francisco, California. I am offering child care services. I have more than 12 years of experience caring for children of different ages, from babies to teenagers. In Brazil, I worked at a preschool as an assistant teacher and cared for several children across different age groups. Currently, in San Francisco, I work as a caregiver for an 8-month-old baby and his siblings (4 and 5 years old), handling routines like feeding, baths, bedtime, and engaging activities. I’m responsible, patient, and truly enjoy creating fun, age-and-development-appropriate activities. I also love cooking and keeping kids safe and entertained. I speak Portuguese natively and am currently improving my English. I am excited to help local families who need a reliable and experienced babysitter!
