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!

Hello, I'm Mallu! I have +9 years of childcare experience, having cared for kids aged 2 months to 14 years. My expertise covers childcare, household management, and pet care. Over the past years, I've worked as a full-time caregiver for several families in the Bay area. Additionally, I've provided babysitting services to many families with children of different ages. During my educational journey, I also took child development classes, which added an extra layer of understanding to my practical experience. I'm genuinely enthusiastic about helping children grow, achieve milestones, and develop important skills. Whether it's organizing outdoor activities or engaging in indoor play, I take joy in providing engaging experiences for children of all ages. Beyond childcare, I like cooking, staying active through exercise, and immersing myself in good reads. If you're seeking an extra hand to make things easier, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you for considering me. Mallu

Experienced, reliable, and would definitely book again.

Hello families! My name is Galen and I’m looking forward to supporting your family’s child and other care needs. I’m a therapist by training and by day with a masters degree in social work, but I’m looking to build community and supplement my income by caring for children on nights and weekends. I have 15+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages as well as tutoring, pet care, cooking, and light housework. I took a few years away from this app to focus on grad school, but I’m excited to get back to childcare. I maintain CPR certification through work and am up-to-date on all vaccines. Looking forward to meeting you!

Galen was fantastic. Not only was she kind and engaging with our 2yo but she was also very proactive in helping to tidy up toys and helping me out with my todo list in the kitchen while my daughter was napping. She was delightful and we’ll be having her back!

Hello ! My name is Ariana. I recently graduated from SFSU with a bachelors in nursing and currently working on my Masters. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have volunteered at Think Together after school program for about five years assisting and tutoring students. I helped raise and watch my three siblings and many cousins when I was ten. Ever since I just love taking care of children. I have so much patience and passion for the little ones and teens! I love creating activities or arts and crafts, reading, making towers with legos, and dancing. * I did take a long break from babysitting due to the outbreak. Then once I decided to resume I focused on my school and joined a beautiful nanny share.

Ariana is great and our daughter loves playing with her. She's always super friendly, energetic and very professional.
