Find a babysitter in San Francisco, CA

I am A'kila [Uhh-kee-luhh]. What I love most about caregiving is having the opportunity to engage with a warm and loving family. My style of caregiving comes from a place of authenticity. Especially in regards to clients that are disabled. After caring for severely Autistic non verbal clients, I am privy to basic ABA therapy strategies and concepts. As well as navigating AAC devices. Since 2017, I have been caring for children of all ages, races and abilities from the ages of 3 months to 13 years young. Within that time, I have met hundreds of families from all walks of life. If you are hiring based on my experience, please look at my reviews for further insight. If you would like to set up an interview, I request we exchange references, so I too gain more insight as to your family dynamic with other sitters, which will give me an idea if we are a good match. What do I expect from you as a parent? Respect and open communication. It is my goal to work with, not for, a family. I give and put my time and effort into caregiving professionally. It is imperative, from the very start of our correspondence that we maintain a level of transparency , honesty and respect in an effort for us all to ultimately find a good match and waste as little of our time as possible in the process. Thank You, A'kila

Hello, my name is Yasmin. I have been babysitting pretty frequently for the past few years, specifically before the pandemic. I have worked with all age groups from newborns to high school students. I’m currently working at a high a school as a therapist and I have worked with kids with autism before so I am equipped to work with kids of all education levels and developmental levels. I’m looking forward to meeting new families and continuing to be a great sitter!

***Update: Please message me for availability- the calendar on here is rarely updated. Thank you! :-) ************************************************************** Hello! I'm a Bay Area native and I was a childcare provider and nanny for over 10 years in San Francisco before I began my teaching certification program. I really enjoy working with families and still keep in close contact with the last family I worked with. In the past, I've also worked for the Y.M.C.A. as a coach and teacher for children in their camp program. I love doing arts and crafts activities, and going on outside adventures with kids to parks, museums (California Academy of Sciences is a great one!), and libraries. Most of my past jobs working with families were referrals from other families I worked with, so this is my first time using an online site to apply for positions. My certifications are in Special Education EC-12th grade, E.S.L. EC-12th grade, English Language Arts and Reading 7th-12th grade, and General Education EC-6th grade. While working on my credential I completed internship hours in an elementary school classroom working with children on the Autism Spectrum. My experience in the internship was so inspiring that I decided to make Special Education a focus in teaching. I'm taking this semester off from teaching so I’m mostly tutoring, but also available for occasional babysitting. I really enjoy babysitting because it gives me the opportunity to be creative, no matter what age the child is, with play and learning activities. As an Educator, I am passionate about incorporating play into education to make learning accessible for every child. My schedule isn’t usually updated on the app, so please feel free to send me a message inquiring about a date. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you! Sincerely, Reese
