Ran $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ran. I’m from Japan and moved here two months ago for working as a nanny. I’m offering child care, pet care and some household services. I have worked at daycare for 0 to 5 years old kids in Japan for a year. I really enjoyed playing, singing, dancing, painting, or taking a walk with them. I currently take care of 6 months old baby and take responsibility for playing, feeding, preparing for meals, napping and taking to a park. I also can do some household such as doing laundry, folding them, washing dishes, easy cooking or organizing rooms. Moreover, I am a big dog lover and I have a dog in Japan. I would love to look after your pets if you need.

Hi There, I have loads of experience caring for children. My personality is very nurturing, fun, understanding and artistic. - 2 AA degrees in Early Childhood Education and Studio Art. I was a preschool teacher at Bright Horizons at UCSF for 6 years. - DONA Post- partum Doula trained since 2008 - raised two children of my own who are now in college. I love giving space for children to be curious, creative and mindful. A few hobbies of mine are water color painting, Ikebana Flower arranging and gardening. I am looking for extra work to be flexible with my school schedule as I am working towards my degree in Art. References upon request. Kindest regards, Claudia

“Claudia is amazing! Our toddler is so shy and scared of new sitters and she made him feel safe instantly. She was lovely, super responsive, caring, and wonderful. We will hire her again and again!”

Maeve $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Maeve, I’m 29 years old and living in the Mission after moving from the East Coast. I’ve been caring for people of all ages since I was about 12 and genuinely love creating environments that are nurturing, fun, and driven by curiosity. I originally went to school for elementary education, and have a true appreciation for childhood development and learning through play. The majority of my experience is with the “little” years - most recently I nannied for a family with a 10 month old and 3 year old. I’m very comfortable with nap schedules and diaper changes, but also love the fun that comes with toddlers - energy, arts and crafts, and playing pretend. Beyond childcare, I have personal experience caring for seniors in my own family (specifically with dementia) and am comfortable in roles that require higher levels of responsibility. I’m a huge animal lover, and happy to help with pets as needed. I also never mind helping with meal prep, light housework, whatever is needed to keep the days running smoother. All in all, I’m looking to be a reliable & helpful extra set of hands for local families. I’d love to chat further about how I can help your household!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
