I have had many younger cousins in my family who I connect with very well and have taken care of from time to time. I am a very dependable and trustworthy person as well as respectful.

“Sofia was wonderful with my son— super attentive and proactive. Would definitely hire again. ”
Hi there! I'm Charlotte. I have a degree in Sociology from the USF, and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter/nanny. I am currently a full time nanny for a one year old in Bernal Heights for 3 weeks of the month, every 4th week the baby is cared for by her grandmother, and I am looking to pick up some short term/date-night gigs during that week, or evening gigs during the other weeks. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers, as well as caring for multi-child homes with 4+ children. I truly love working with kids, I am a certified yoga instructor and have worked at a kids summer theater camp. I can provide multiple references upon request.
“Charlotte has been watching our child since she was 7 months old as her full time nanny, essentially raising our kid with us. Her attention to detail, collaborative nature, and overwhelming kindness make her the perfect person to watch your kids in any capacity. ”
Hey there - I am Kesley, I have more than 6 years of experience in child care, 5 years of experience as a nanny in the Bay Area and San Francisco. I have a lot of driving experience and always drive safe and drive my own car. I have been taking care of a sweet boy for over 2 years now and he is going to preschool so I am available for a full time. I have experience with all ages and I can provide great references. I am going to graduate with my associates in child development at city college in May. I am really excited to connect and help you with your little ones. On my free time I like the outdoors and spend time with my friends traveling or just hanging out in the area. I am fully vaccinated
“Kesley has been our nanny for the last year - since our daughter was 15 months old, now 27 months, and she's been an absolute gift to our family. She's warm, patient, and so much fun, our daughter adores her. She's wonderful with toddler care day to day: keeping routines consistent and always coming up with activities that actually engage our daughter, dancing, drawing, imaginative play, scootering, walks, bubbles, park trips. She handles the ups and downs of toddlerhood with a calm, steady presence, and she's reliable and communicative, treating our home and our daughter with real care. She drives herself, which makes logistics easy, and she's fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Beyond the practical skills, she's just a kind, thoughtful person to have around. Any family would be lucky to have her. Highly recommend.”
Hello, my name is Lita. I recently completed the UX Design Bootcamp at UC Berkeley Extension and am currently offering childcare, Doula, and household support services. I genuinely enjoy working with children and have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids—including twins. My past responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, arts and crafts, tutoring, and even teaching swimming lessons. In addition to childcare, I also assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have a passion for cooking and love sharing Thai cuisine—sometimes I even cook together with the children as a fun, hands-on activity that helps us connect. I’m also comfortable working in homes with pets and occasionally help with dog and cat sitting as well. I’d be happy to learn more about your family’s needs and see how I can support you!
Hello! I’m currently living and working at a Buddhist monastery in San Francisco, where I meditate daily and study Buddhist psychology. I’m preparing to begin graduate school this fall to become a therapist, and I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate presence to my work with children. I’ve spent many years caring for kids in a variety of settings. I grew up babysitting and recently returned from Asia, where I worked as a camp counselor in Japan leading groups of children and supporting ADHD, autism, and mental health needs. I’ve also taught English to children in Vietnam and worked as a tutor in the U.S. for two years. I love to dance, play, and do crafts, and I enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment.
