Hi! My name is Karina, I am a part time nanny, part time elementary school art teacher, and a part time musician. I’ve been nannying the same kids for 6 years now, and it’s my biggest joy. However; I’m looking for some occasional extra hours. Would love to help your family out and watch your kids so you can go out and enjoy a date night, or even give you just sometime to yourself. I have been babysitting and nannying kids for 15 years now, and nothing really makes me happier.

“Karina took care of our 4-month old on short notice, and as our first non-family sitter. She was super responsive, friendly, confident, and was great with our son and our dog. We are very grateful that she helped us feel comfortable taking a night for ourselves! Would 100% work with her again.”

Booked by 10 families in Sausalito, CA

Hello there! I’ve been working as a teacher for children for the past 10 years or so, and I’ve worked as a babysitter/nanny several times as well. I love at home activities like arts & crafts, cooking, or reading/writing, but I also enjoy field trips away from home to get kids running around. I’ve worked with all kinds of kids and students so I’m pretty adaptable to most settings. I’ve worked abroad in the past as well , so I have many cultural experiences to share. 广东话没事 国语还可以 日本語も少し話せます I have a bit of a fur allergy though, so unfortunately I’m not great with pets. Mainly looking for part time work. Thanks so much for your consideration!

“Michelle was great! She quickly got Gia to calm down and read her books before bedtime. Will happily hire again!”

🌁 Hi! I’m a native San Franciscan back after twenty years in Hawaii. I began my nannying career in Y2K, and have cared for little ones (newborns- 5 years) since then in San Francisco, Marin, and Maui. 🐣 Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of nurturing children from infancy through adolescence, including my goddaughter, who is aspirationally kind and thoughtful. 🩵 I bring an empathetic, warm, and grounded presence into the home, and always try to grow the giggles! I aim to create a safe, loving environment for children to feel confident, secure, and seen. 🎨 Trained in ballet, hula, acting, and visual arts, I love to encourage imagination and creative self-expression. 💬 With a background in public relations, I’m highly communicative, discreet, organized, and dependable. 🦺 My driver license, vaccination records (COVID x2/ MMR/ Tdap), and background checks (LiveScan, Checkr) are available upon request. ✈️ I'm able to travel with your family (USA Passport/ CLEAR/ TSA Pre-Check), and am available for overnights. 🌸 Please feel free to message me about availability, rates, or anything else; I can usually reply immediately. I look forward to connecting with your family! Aloha! **For the health and safety of all the children and families I work with, I’m unable to care for those actively sick with highly contagious illnesses such as HF&M, RSV, flu, pink eye, COVID, etc. Thank you for understanding.

Booked by 80 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi! I'm a graduate of the University of San Francisco. I'm originally from Georgia, but I have been living in the city for 8 years now. I’ve been babysitting children since I was 14 and have volunteered at several children camps over the years. I have experience with children from 4 months to 13 years old. I’ve been working full-time in childcare for the past four years. Along with childcare, I have experience in management, retail, assistant, and food service work. I have also been driving for 9+ years with a clean record. I love children because they're full of energy and always have fun/unique perspectives on everything. I consider myself an active, caring, and energetic person. In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and art!

“Mauri was so kind and thoughtful with my toddler, navigating his opinions and routines smoothly - would recommend!”
