Find a babysitter in San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Laure, and I'm a UC Berkeley graduate (Go Bears!) with a B.A. in Public Health and minors in Data Science and Forestry & Natural Resources. I'm currently based in San Francisco and will be starting graduate school at UCSF this fall. In the meantime, I have a very flexible schedule and am actively seeking babysitting opportunities. I'm a dedicated childcare provider with a passion for working with children of all ages. With over 13 years of experience in the Girl Scouts, where I earned the prestigious Gold Award, I've developed a strong sense of leadership and responsibility. My professional background includes teaching gymnastics to children at The Little Gym, where I combined fun with physical activity, volunteering at the Saratoga Library, hosting storybook hours and helping children develop a love for reading, and babysitting for 3+ years during my time as an undergraduate student at UC Berkeley. I am dedicated to creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for every child in my care. As a CPR-certified caregiver, I prioritize safety and preparedness in every childcare situation. I obtained my certification through my role as a student course instructor, where I was trained in emergency response and first aid. This experience has equipped me with the skills to handle unexpected situations calmly and effectively, ensuring the well-being of the children under my care. I am strong and capable, easily lifting over 50 pounds, making it effortless for me to assist with carrying children, strollers, or any necessary gear. Please note that I do not have a car, so I am best suited for families who can arrange drop-off/pick-up or are accessible by public transit. I prioritize safety, punctuality, and creating a positive, nurturing environment. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, making sure both parents and children feel at ease. I have babysat regularly for Bay Area families throughout my time at Cal. With the kids I babysit, I love getting them outdoors and exploring—whether it's running together along the waterfront (I've done 5+ mile runs with some kiddos, connecting my Cal Triathlon background with childcare—it's a win-win!), tasting our way through the city's best ice cream shops, or turning local parks into a jungle full of imagination.

Hello! My name is Rosie. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including roles as a babysitter, nanny, and camp counselor. I have my Bachelor's degree in Stage Management, and work full-time with a theatre coordinating the logistics of child performers. I'm first aid and CPR certified, as well as have my own car and feel comfortable driving children if needed. I can help with light child-related housework, meal preparation, and schoolwork. I have experience with children from infants to middle schoolers and love spending time with all ages. While with the children I’m watching, I enjoy doing crafts, puzzles, playing outside, reading, and having dance parties! I'm currently available for date nights and occasional mornings throughout the week. I'm excited to get to know you and your family!

Hello, my name is Madison. I'm originally from the state of Michigan and moved to San Francisco for work after graduating from The University of Michigan where I majored in psychology with a focus in child and adolescent development. Im currently pursuing my doctoral in clinical psychology in the Bay Area. Im looking to for a reoccurring childcare opportunity on Mondays as well as to serve as a go to date night babysitter! I have 8 years of paid child care experience, working with children from newborns to middle schoolers! I am a very active individual and love to spend time outside especially when caring for children. I also enjoy reading, playing games or doing arts and crafts, really any active that sparks children's imagination! I love to cook/bake and (if age appropriate) to involve children in those activities as well. I am willing to help out with light house keeping, meal preparation and pick up/drop off. I also have experience with pet care, tending to both dogs and cats. Thank you for considering me for your child or pet care needs :)

Hi! My name is Kate and I’m 23 born and raised in San Francisco. Currently I’m taking a gap year before continuing to law school next fall and would really like to continue working with kids till than. As a caregiver I really enjoy getting to know who the child really is so that I can meet at their level to be as helpful as possible. I love to have fun and explore with the kids I work with, even if it means jumping in muddy puddles outside. I am incredibly organized, on top of schedules/assignments, and am more than happy to help with a bit of housework. My schedule is very flexible so if there is a spontaneous date night or Sunday playdate, I am happy to jump in to help ease your world. I am CPR and First Aid certified and am fully up to date on all vaccinations/health needs. I am happy to provide documentation for any of that if you would like to see it. I also have a car that I can use to get to and from work, however, I would not be able to use it to transport kids. Prior to this past summer I don’t have much formal childcare experience, however I’ve been babysitting on and off since I was in high school. Over the summer I was a camp counselor for 3-6 year olds at the Greensboro Country Club and I also worked in their drop in daycare center which took kids 6 weeks-10 years. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your family more, so feel free to reach out!

Grew up taking care of my younger sister while both my parents worked long hours. Worked for healthcare system backoffice software for the last decade. Looking to make a bigger community impact and help real people outside the healthcare system. I'm extremely patient and work well with all sorts of personalities, albeit I can be a little bit awkward sometimes. I love fixing things and getting into the details. Always happy to listen to people's stories.
