TrustLine & CPR Certified | Evenings & Weekends Available 🤍 About Me Hi families! I’m Ale, a bilingual professional nanny with over 13 years of hands-on childcare experience and a deep passion for supporting children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth. I currently work full-time as a nanny in Pacific Heights, caring for a precious baby, and I’m now available for part-time care after 5:00 pm on weekdays and flexible weekends. My childcare journey began as an au pair in San Francisco, and since then I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I hold a degree in Philosophy and Literature, am CPR certified, TrustLine registered, and a Nanny Pro certified caregiver. I’m also a swim instructor for young children and love incorporating movement, creativity, outdoor play, and gentle structure into our time together. On weekends, I collaborate with TIFFAN.org, where I teach the in-person Nanny Pro course, mentoring other nannies on professional childcare, communication with families, and respectful, heart-centered caregiving. This role reflects my commitment to high standards, trust, and professionalism in childcare. I believe in nurturing independent, curious, and emotionally secure children. Whether it’s story time, imaginative play, park adventures, or calm evening routines, I bring warmth, reliability, and intention to every family I work with. Availability • Weekdays: After 5:00 pm • Weekends: Flexible • Location: San Francisco (Pacific Heights, Noe Valley, Bernal Heights, nearby areas) I’m happy to provide excellent references and my resume upon request. For your peace of mind, I’m fully vaccinated (Tdap, MMR, COVID-19) and have up-to-date TB clearance. If you’re looking for a caring, responsible, and experienced nanny for evenings or weekends, I’d love to connect. Warmly, Ale 🤍 Please read my reviews! :)

“Alejandra was great! She arrived right on time and took great care of our 3yo son River, including getting him to bed, which is notoriously difficult. I would definitely recommend Alejandra!”

Hi! I have been regularly babysitting children for 13 years now and love it. I work at The Roxie Theater as a projectionist and love to make art in my spare time. Each child has different needs and personalities and I am excited and prepared to get to know them and help them grow into kind and caring individuals. I am always excited to do some arts and crafts, visit the park, create fun games, and run off some energy. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Hope to see you soon!

Hello ! My name is Ariana. I recently graduated from SFSU with a bachelors in nursing and currently working on my Masters. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have volunteered at Think Together after school program for about five years assisting and tutoring students. I helped raise and watch my three siblings and many cousins when I was ten. Ever since I just love taking care of children. I have so much patience and passion for the little ones and teens! I love creating activities or arts and crafts, reading, making towers with legos, and dancing. * I did take a long break from babysitting due to the outbreak. Then once I decided to resume I focused on my school and joined a beautiful nanny share.

“Ariana is great and our daughter loves playing with her. She's always super friendly, energetic and very professional.”

Hi, I'm Shak! As the eldest in a large family, childcare has been a part of my life from a young age. I began as a mother's helper in 2009 and now have 16 years of active childcare experience. I've worked primarily with newborns and toddlers, but I love working with children of all ages. I bring an empathy-first approach to every family I work with. For infants, I specialize in sleep training and mother's helper support, and I'm happy to work alongside new parents through that journey every step of the way. I also focus on early language development through textures, sounds, rhythm, and music. With toddlers, I lean into interest led play, imagination building, curiosity about the world, early reading and counting. For school-age kids and teens, I emphasize active listening, healthy boundaries, and creating safe spaces for authentic expression. I also have meaningful experience with neurodiverse children who benefit from a different level of engagement and care. And since I studied classical text and diction, I love putting that to use — making up plays, collaborative storytelling, theatre games, you name it! But I'm just as happy getting active: bike rides, fort building, kite flying at the beach, little hikes, and whatever else sparks joy. I have a very low cancellation rate. If I accept a booking I am committed and will be there. I also have a reliable vehicle. I'd love to be a part of your family's village. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

“Shak has such a calming and yet fun demeanor. I am amazed that she got my daughter to go in her bed on her own. Let me tell you, we have not been able to do it! She got creative, she made up stories, they warmed up quickly and gave hugs. Just lovely person and super caretaker!”

"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!"
