Booked by 26 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi families! 👋 My name is Nayla. I’m 29 years old and my childcare journey began in high school, where I completed internships in kindergartens. Since then, I’ve gained over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education, which allows me to continue learning about child development and bring new knowledge and ideas into my work every day. I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I’m responsible, reliable, clean, and organized. I love spending time outdoors, going to parks, taking walks, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I’m also pet-friendly, fully vaccinated and boosted, and CPR & First Aid certified. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family! Warm regards, Nayla

Nayla has worked full time as my 2-year old son's nanny for the past 13 months. She is caring, reliable, and a joy to be around. When she started, he was just beginning to walk, and she helped him gain in strength and confidence with his gross motor skills. She talks and sings with him, encouraging him to express himself and speak in full sentences. Her style is very caring and affectionate, but she encourages him to be independent. She has also built his social emotional skills by introducing him to other friends. Her communication style is open and direct; I can always rely on her to raise an issue or concern, without leaving things unsaid. And my son absolutely adores her! I couldn't recommend her more, and we are so sorry to see her go when he starts preschool in the fall.

Booked by 57 families in Sausalito, CA

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!

Booked by 68 families in Sausalito, CA

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.

Booked by 84 families in Sausalito, CA

Hello! My name is Shaden. I’m 29 years old, a Culinary Arts student, and I speak both Spanish and English. I would describe myself as an honest, responsible, and caring person. I have several years of childcare experience, including over 4 years working with the same family here in San Francisco, plus many years of babysitting experience back in my hometown. I started caring for their youngest when he was just 4 months old, while also helping with his older brother and sister, who were 6 and 8 at the time. Today they are 4, 10, and 12, and it has been such a special experience growing alongside them through every stage. I originally came to San Francisco as an au pair in 2022, and after completing my program, I continued working with the same family as their nanny while studying. In my free time, I’ve also completed many babysitting jobs with local families, building strong connections in the community with 100+ bookings and 50+ positive reviews. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I love creating a safe, fun, and loving environment. I can help with school drop-offs, activities, homework, meal prep, bath and bedtime routines, outdoor play, and engaging creative activities. I’m warm, responsible, patient, and energetic, and I truly enjoy helping children grow while making parents feel supported and at ease

I highly recommend Shaden! We had a brief call to meet her the night before the booking. She arrived on time (actually a little early and she waited for the extacr time) for a very early morning booking, she was kind and professional. I immediately felt at ease with her, especially since my son was still sleeping. She drove him in her car to his camp and everything went very smoothly. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks Shaden!
