Nahomi $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Nahomi, a San Francisco native, I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and truly love spending time with kids. With my background in psychology and experience working with youth, I understand how important it is to create a safe, patient, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I enjoy planning fun, engaging activities — whether that’s arts and crafts, games, outdoor play, reading stories, or creative projects that keep little ones excited and involved. I also specialize in evening and nighttime routines, helping with dinner, bath time, homework, and smooth bedtimes so parents can confidently enjoy a well-deserved break. I’m reliable, warm, and attentive, and I treat every child with care and respect. I look forward to supporting your family!

Natalie $33 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families! My name is Natalie, I am a Registered Nurse with a passion for caring for children. I am currently in between nursing positions and working part-time as a School Nurse, where I provide one-on-one care for medically fragile students. While I transition into my next role, I am excited to offer afternoon, evening, and occasional date night childcare for families looking for dependable, compassionate support. I have over ten years of childcare experience and have found that working with children is one of my greatest passions. Whether it's engaging in play, helping with homework, maintaining routines, or providing attentive care, I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I am also the oldest of six siblings, which has given me a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages-- from infancy through adolescence. This has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and an understanding of each child's unique personality and needs. As I prepare to pursue my long-term goal of becoming a Labor and Delivery nurse, I would love the opportunity to continue doing what I enjoy most: caring for children and supporting families. If you're looking for a reliable, responsible caregiver with a healthcare background, I would be happy to connect and discuss how I can help meet your family's needs. I look forward to hearing from you! Warmly, Natalie B.

"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!"
