Please read thoroughly before requesting!! Thanks so much for viewing. If I am applying to YOUR post for a one time sit, I will accept the rate at which you’ve set. Please check my calendar. Please don’t request any days that are unavailable. NOTE: Will accept jobs that have a dedicated parking space or ample parking available in the neighborhood as I'll be driving to your location. In addition, if your child or anyone in the family is sick or suspects COVID, please do not book or if I have already approved the sit, please cancel. I want to protect my health and you and your families health so please be respectful. Current Availability - On Call, Date Nights, Occasional, Weekends Hello! My name is Francesca and I look forward to meeting your family. I've been babysitting since I was 13 years old, caring for multiple nieces and family friend's children ranging from ages 1-16. I also have experience working at a preschool for my senior project. Previously, I volunteered as a Kindergarten Aide at an elementary school in San Francisco on my spare time. I have a clean driving record and have my own transportation. A little background about me: I played piano and keyboard for over 8 years, enjoy reading on my spare time, love to bake and cook, & I'm a Yoga and Pilates enthusiast. I have a 3.9 GPA with multiple honors and dean lists notations. I am also magna cum laude of my graduating class. Being around children brings me joy and love any opportunity to be around them. Some activities that I like doing with children are reading (highly encouraged since I was an avid reader since age 4), helping with homework, snack time/feeding, arts & crafts, computer/electronic educational games (only if parent encourages it - otherwise no electronics per parents request), singing, dancing, games, puzzles, going to the park, basketball, make believe etc... I am a responsible, caring, nurturing, dedicated and organized individual and hope to be a positive contribution to your family. Cancellation Policy: If bookings are cancelled by the parent within 12 hours of the start time of the booking, I charge a fee of 50% of the total booking to help offset the loss of wages on short notice.

Booked by 11 families in Brisbane, CA

I’m a caring, patient, and dependable mother of two with hands-on childcare experience, including nannying and over three years of volunteering with children through my church’s children’s ministry, a Christian school, and USF children’s programs. I’m CPR certified and have also completed an EMT course, which provided me with foundational knowledge of emergency response and basic medical care. Children’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. As both a mother and caregiver, I understand how important it is for parents to find someone they can genuinely trust. I’m attentive, responsible, organized, and committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate activities, including creative play, reading, outdoor activities, and educational games. I’m also comfortable assisting with meals, homework, school routines, and light housekeeping related to the children. I believe in building positive relationships with both children and parents through patience, communication, and consistency. I’m currently seeking part-time nannying and babysitting opportunities where I can provide dependable, loving care and build lasting relationships with families.

"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!"
