Hello, my name is Chloe! I have always been passionate about working with kids, and have done so professionally for the past couple years. I started very young watching my younger brother and his friends, which turned into two years of preschool teaching and a year of substitute teaching. Working with kids has brought me so much joy, and I'm always in awe by all that I learn from the different children I work with! I have 3 years of classroom experience, 1 year of nannying experience, and 7 years of babysitting. I'm an avid reader and am a huge supporter of outdoor exploration. I can also provide housesitting / petsitting services. Thanks so much!
I’m a 22-year-old female nursing student with a strong background in caregiving and child support. I’m CPR certified and have several years of hands-on experience babysitting my younger siblings and cousins, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and nurturing. I’ve also tutored children in the past and taken education-related classes toward a minor, which helped me understand how to engage kids in fun and age-appropriate ways, even though I don’t have official certification for it. I have my own car and a valid driver’s license, which makes me reliable and flexible with transportation needs. I’m responsible, empathetic, and genuinely enjoy caring for others — whether that’s kids, seniors, or helping out around the house. I bring a calm, warm energy to any home I work in, and I’m committed to creating a safe and positive environment for everyone I care for.
I am an experienced and compassionate Nanny, Postpartum Doula and NCS. I've been caring for newborns, infants and toddlers in San Francisco since 2008, and I truly enjoy my work. My approach is playful, engaged and nurturing; I have a natural ability to build trust and positive rapport with little ones. In addition to English, I can teach Spanish as well as Portuguese basics and ASL Baby Signs. Adult and Pediatric CPR/First Aid (Heartcode AHA), and Fire Safety certified. Excellent references! Thanks for reading. Please visit my website or look me up on Google to learn more about my doula business: Serenity Night Doula Services in Noe Valley (sf night doula . com)

“My youngest has a new bestie apparently. Which is probably all that needs to be said. But also, on time, very professional, very focused on understanding what was needed for each of them. Instant addition to my "favorites" list.”
Hi, my name is Min and was a teaching staff for many years. Currently I am looking for some part-time positions since my teaching hours were severely cut this year. I love to work with kids, and I worked as a nanny many years ago. Also I time to time help my friends with their babies or kids when they need help. I’ve worked with children of all ages back in my Country from infants to pre-teens, and I truly enjoy helping kids. I believe in creating a positive, structured, and fun environment for kids, and I’m always looking for ways to support their unique needs. I am very strong in math and Physics ( I teach Physics for many years in San Francisco), and I am also pretty good in house work: cooking especially make Asian style meals, cleaning etc. I love pets: dogs and cats. If you need my help, I will help you with sincere heart.
“Minh has been wonderful with my 3.5 year old daughter - very caring and fun - and also with our family dog. She's also been great helping me around our flat with laundry and neatening things up. Highly recommended! 🙌”
