Brittany Aryn 2 reviews

$35 per hour for 1 child
Hi everyone! I’m 25-years-old and looking for some occasional or part-time babysitting/nannying work. My legal first name is Brittany but I go by my middle name, Aryn. This past year I worked as an elementary school garden teacher in San Francisco as part of a year long AmeriCorps program! I taught students TK through 5th grade all things plants, nature, vegetables, as well as social emotional learning in a beautiful school garden :) I’m passionate about regenerative agriculture, urban food systems, and outdoor education, among many other things. I live in San Francisco now and went to UC Berkeley for undergrad. Prior to working as a teacher I was a full-time nanny for various kids ages 10 months all that way up to 11-years-old in New Orleans. I’ve been working with kids since on and off since I was 15-years-old so have lots of experience. I was a camp counselor for years so I know lots of games and fun activities. I have experience changing diapers, putting kids down for naps, cooking and preparing meals/ lunches, helping around the house, bedtime/bath time, creative play, and have been known for helping facilitate creativity (I love arts and crafts!). I have babysat kids as young as 3 months old. I also have a car so am able to pickup/ drive kids when needed. I would be happy to chat in person and/or provide references!! Looking forward to chatting!
“Aryn has watched our 2 year old son several times and we would highly recommend her. She’s the perfect balance of taking initiative and direction. She’s thoughtful and fun and our son loves time with her!”

I’ve been working with children since I was 13 and have experience in a wide range of childcare roles, including part-time babysitter, full-time nanny, daycare assistant, and camp counselor. I’m also an aunt to four amazing kids, which has deepened my love for caring for children of all ages. I consider myself caring, fun-loving, and dependable, and I value creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for kids. I currently work part-time virtually as a therapist and hold a Master’s degree in Social Work. Along with my professional background, I’m drawn to babysitting as a way to connect with others and provide meaningful, in-person care. I take pride in being someone families can trust and children enjoy spending time with.
“Kayla watched my 4-year-old, Jameson, regularly, and I am being 100% serious when I say this woman saved our marriage, our sanity, and possibly society at large. The moment she entered our lives, our household went from complete chaos to running smoothly. She is preternaturally patient, unfailingly reliable, and somehow both calm and magical with kids. Like how is that possible? Jameson was obsessed with her. She truly feels like part of our family. I would recommend Kayla to anyone with a pulse. If you can book her, do it immediately.”
Robyn $26 per hour for 1 child
Hi family! I have experience caring for infants and genuinely enjoy creating a calm, loving, and attentive environment for babies. I am also a student by night, enrolled in child development to learn more about the little ones and how to best care for them! I'm reliable, communicative, and comfortable with pets, and I'm happy to help with light baby-related tidying as needed. I'm CPR/First Aid trained (but would need to renew). I'd love the opportunity to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for your family.
Grace $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Grace and I work in interior design and live in San Francisco. I have been babysitting since I was 14 and have primarily watched children ages 1-9. I spent one year as an nanny abroad and enjoy childcare, pet care and general household assistant roles. I love bonding with children, playing, running errands and cooking and am excited to be around any and all pets. My availability is generally limited to evenings and weekends. Ask me anything:)

Booked by 1 family in South San Francisco, CA
Hi - My name is Maca, and I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. I’ve cared for my nieces and nephews when they were little and have also babysat for friends. My responsibilities have included engaging in crafts, playing games, and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. I also enjoy taking care of pets and have experience looking after friends' dogs and cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship, I’m happy to lend a hand. Additionally, I can assist with household tasks like light cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to help! (:
“Macarena did a great job. She was diligent and thorough. She cleaned up after a long day with three kids making a mess of our house. We hope she can come over again soon.”
