Hi, My name is Guadalupe! I enjoy babysitting and have experience taking care of infants, toddlers, kids since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities have included getting kids ready for school, assisting with morning & night routines, reading books, crafting, baking and light house work. I have worked with 6-17 years old for the past 5 years through San Francisco local non-profits and after school programs. I have volunteered at various San Francisco Early Childhood Education Head-start programming for kids ages 3-5 years old for 4 years. I am a proud aunt to twin nieces ❤️ CPR trained and certified! I speak both Spanish and English and am able to practice these languages with your kid(s). A few strong traits that I hold are patience, active listening and energetic. I believe kids should have someone who is willing to understand their needs as well as guidance and have fun while being safe! Looking forward to assisting you in anyway possible. Thank you for your time!

“Wonderful with my kids. Always on time. Sings, plays, reads, and cleans up all while keeping up with our insane schedule to get out of the house every morning. Such a big help!!”

Booked by 5 families in Brisbane, CA

My experience mainly comes from my family. I have been babysitting my little brother since I was 10 and he was 6. More recently, I have been babysitting my cousins, a 1-year-old, a 4-year-old, and a 9-year-old. I have also managed kids at various summer camps. Whenever I take care of my cousins, we always end up belting out show tunes on our made-up stage. On the quieter side, I also like to draw and do paper crafts, so I am more than happy to sit with kids and do crafts for hours. I’m looking for summer work before heading off to college, and I’d love to help make your family’s summer a little easier.

“Our daughter had a great time with Zazie!”

Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA

Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a student at UC Irvine with experience working with children in a variety of settings. As a former swim instructor, I’ve worked with kids of all ages, helping them build confidence while always putting safety first. Through that role, I received CPR training and was previously CPR certified, giving me a strong foundation in emergency response. I’ve also volunteered at an elementary school, where I supervised and supported children in a positive and encouraging environment, and participated in youth programs that strengthened my leadership and communication skills. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors, I strive to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and someone families can count on. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children!

“We hired Jocelyn for a one-day sitting job and she was wonderful. She arrived right on time, was polite and respectful with us, and was genuinely sweet and caring with our son. He had so much fun with her, which says everything. We'd happily have her back and recommend her to any family looking for someone kind and reliable.”

Gloria 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Gloria, I’m currently in school studying to become a Medical Assistant, and I’m offering reliable childcare and household support. I’ve been babysitting for about six years. I started by caring for my nephews and soon began helping other families with babies, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I love spending time with children playing, helping with homework, reading, and keeping them engaged in fun, safe activities. I’m also comfortable with pets and can easily follow any family rules or routines. I’m happy to help with light cleaning, laundry, and simple meal prep as part of my care. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and very easygoing. I truly enjoy helping households run smoothly and giving kids a positive, caring environment. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!

“We couldn’t have asked for a better babysitter for our infant! She was incredibly attentive, caring, and patient, always making sure our little one felt safe, happy, and loved. From gentle snuggles to playful moments that brought out the biggest smiles, she made every minute fun while still being so responsible. It was such a relief knowing our baby was in such capable and warm hands—and now our kiddo can’t wait to see her again. We’re so grateful for her and would trust her again in a heartbeat!”

Hi! My name is Neidy Lopez, but everyone calls me Sucely, you’re welcome to call me whichever you feel most comfortable with. I’m 23 years old and bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. This is my first time using this app. I have over five years of babysitting experience working with a private family, which is why I don’t have reviews here yet but I bring reliable hands on experience and strong references upon request. I’m excited to connect with new families and provide the same loving and reliable care. I have completed high school, took a child development class on CCSF, and hold a CPR, First Aid and babysitting certification from Redcross. I have experience providing childcare care, I’m known for being patient, responsible, and attentive. I’m very flexible and adaptable, and I feel comfortable working in different environments and with diverse family needs. I enjoy helping with daily routines, playtime, and creating a safe, nurturing space. I value trust, communication, and kindness, and I take pride in providing dependable care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be someone you can rely on.

“I loudly recommend Neidy (Sucely) as a babysitter and caregiver. She has been an incredible part of our family for the past five years, helping us raise our son from the time he was a newborn. Neidy is loving, responsible, patient, and truly invested in a child’s development. Thanks to her care and dedication, our son has grown into a happy, confident child and even speaks some Spanish. Neidy is no longer working with us only because we are moving out of state, but she will always be part of our family. Any family would be extremely lucky to have her.”
