Jupleen $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jupleen and I'm a recent grad from Georgetown where I studied International Affairs. I have previous experience babysitting mostly elementary school age kids and older. I have also been an overnight camp counselor for a few summers where I was in charge of kids aged 7-12. I love being active and doing creative activities with kids. I sometimes bring my Nintendo switch and kids love to play Just Dance! Depending on the age, I also love to bake with kids, and I am also open to help with tutoring, homework, or cooking. I played cello and tennis up until high school if that is of interest as well!

Elizabeth $24 per hour for 1 child

hello! :-) I’m a 20 year old psychology major at SFSU and plan on going into private practice with adolescents. Im also part of Alpha Gamma Delta- where we advocate for fighting hunger- at school. Im originally from Southern California and am the oldest daughter of two little sisters and also have two older brothers. I cared for my little sisters until I graduated, babysat around my hometown neighborhood, as well as my little sisters dance coachs’ daycare. I’ve also volunteered at an after school program as a group leader! I’m a sympathetic being and appreciate the privilege of getting to know tiny humans and care for them. With these experiences, I am strong with patience, time efficient, carry a playful but responsible attitude and have developed problem solving skills! I also work at a community toy store! a little more about me is I own a pup and on my free time I enjoy taking him on walks, reading, journaling, exploring the city, coloring, going to the beach, throwing picnics, catch up with my grandmother and attending the aquarium or live music events happening near me. Thank you for reading this far, hope to chat soon! 💌

Christiana $25 per hour for 1 child

I have a thorough background in childcare and working with children. I was a camp counselor at the Burlingame Parks and Recreation Adventure camp for 5 years and have been CPR certified twice. I am passionate and love to see children learn and grow throughout my time with them. I like to create a fun environment with the potential to ask questions, be curious and have fun as all children should. I am studying Biology so I love to expose children to the outdoor, information about our environment and other fun animal facts to further enrich their experience. I can’t wait to meet you all and share my kindness, passion and enthusiasm with you!

Booked by 12 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi! My name is Danielle and I am currently a medical student at UCSF. I love to cook, bake, and find these two things are most enjoyable when I am hosting friends or serving. I have spent the past two years babysitting for various families through my church occasionally and for different events. I am firm with children while I also try my best to understand what it is like to have big emotions in such a small body. I find babysitting to be so joyous and I learn so much from each toddler, child, pre-teen, and teenager with whom I am privileged to interact. I understand that babysitting is an act of trust from the parents and their children and I do not take it lightly. I work hard to establish relationships with each child I babysit. I do not have any allergies and I have also dog sat for families.

Booked by 409 families in Brisbane, CA

**Not available from Jan 17- Feb 7, 2026** Please make sure to read before booking: Hello, My name is Maria and I'm 70 years old. Yes, I understand than that's older than most nannies on here but I'm still very active and I love kids. I've been babysitting since I was young, being that I'm the oldest of seven siblings. Most of them see me as a mother figure now. I have my own kids, or should I say adults now, who are 34 and 32 years old. So I pretty much know how to raise children. I have nannied for couple families (ages ranging from 4-14), my longest being seven years with the same family. I pretty much became part of their family. I would cook, clean, watch the dog, drive her to activities, drop her off and pick her up from school, etc. I've also nannied triplets, so I'm pretty comfortable with that too. I have a great driving record and a safe, reliable Prius C. * Because I am older now, I prefer jobs that do not include driving children* Although my english isn't that great, please have patience with me, I understand it perfectly. I'm also fluent in Spanish. The past couple years, I've been a caregiver for an older couple but I have decided I want to go back to nanning. I like having an impact on kids when they're young. I'm looking for occasional jobs right now. I look forward to meeting you and your child/children.
