Find a babysitter in South San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Erica 👋 I provide reliable in home childcare with the experience and skill of a preschool teacher. I am currently seeking a part-time morning nanny position while in school to become a kindergarten teacher. I have 4 years of experience working for private families, including two long-term nannying arrangements that lasted more than a year. I taught preschool for 2 years as a lead teacher with a class of students aged 18mo- 5 years old. I am available to start on or after August 24th. My childcare philosophy centers around patience, relationship, and silliness. While caring for children, I am constantly singing, dancing, and finding ways to make a mundane task fun. I view challenging behavior as an opportunity to teach emotional regulation and communication. I believe it's our job to teach children boundaries, so I lead with a firm but kind approach, always shame-free. I enjoy engaging children in intentional activities that work to improve developmental skills. My goal is to get the kids I care for out and about at least once a day, so walks and driving to fun activities (I have a car and am happy to use it!) are a must. I love finding out about the local parks, libraries, rec centers, museums, and music and art classes! Early childhood education is my passion and career focus. I’m currently in school at SFSU, finishing my bachelor's degree and teaching credential.

🌁 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.

I’m an creative babysitter, I love make art projects with my kids and teach them how to clean up at the end, I enjoy playing with their toys and take them to the playground if the weather permit.

Hi, I'm Wendi--a really fun sitter who has worked with kids of all ages for over twenty years. I'm also a mom who has had a fantastic time raising four kids in SF. I love working with groups of kids and was a Nursery Director for seventeen years caring for children from birth to age three. Currently, I teach first and second-grade at a public charter school which led me into the adventure of homeschooling my 13-year-old daughter. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are read, bake, explore Golden Gate Park, and play board games. I have also facilitated regular parenting classes dealing with topics such as anxiety in the home, choosing the right SF school for your child, and how to bring "play" into your daily routines. Your kids will be safe and have tons of fun. I look forward to meeting you.
