Hi - my name is Sinead and I’m originally from Ireland and have lived in the US for nearly ten years. I am currently a nannying for a sweet 14 month old boy and a 6 month old girl Monday to Thursday. Looking for work every Friday if possible and occasional weekend jobs. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years of age. I have worked with children from many different ages - infants up to teenagers. I am an auntie for five wonderful nieces and nephews so I understand how busy family life can get. Ive worked in many different industries over the years so I am no stranger to work as a household assistant and can cook, clean and run errands. I also happy to work with families that have animals.
“Completely comfortable with Sinead! Her experience shows, she was prompt and communicated great. My baby loved her! ”

Hello, my name is Madison. I'm originally from the state of Michigan and moved to San Francisco for work after graduating from The University of Michigan where I majored in psychology with a focus in child and adolescent development. Im currently pursuing my doctoral in clinical psychology in the Bay Area. Im looking to be your go to babysitter for occasional events. I have 8 years of paid child care experience, working with children from newborns to middle schoolers! I am a very active individual and love to spend time outside especially when caring for children. I also enjoy reading, playing games or doing arts and crafts, really any active that sparks children's imagination! I love to cook/bake and (if age appropriate) to involve children in those activities as well. I am willing to help out with light house keeping, meal preparation and pick up/drop off. I also have experience with pet care, tending to both dogs and cats. Thank you for considering me for your child or pet care needs :)
Hi! I’m Darria, with over eight years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and kids, ensuring they are safe, happy, and engaged—whether it’s pick-ups, playtime, or mealtime. I’m also a great cook and love helping with household chores to keep your home neat and comfortable. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, fun, and dependable caregiver, I’d love to support your family. I look forward to connecting with you!
“Darria was lovely. She was so warm and loving towards my 4 month old son, and tidied the house up during his nap without me asking. ”
I am a mother of 2 kids ages 10 and 6. I work in education as a special education paraprofessional for over 10 years. I’m among elementary students 5-11 years old everyday. I have very good communication techniques with kids. I’m very knowledgeable of kids needs and wants. I know many strategies when working with elementary school age children. I am able to connect to children. I had a cat for 19 years. She currently lives with my parents because we moved. We recently got a dog as well. I am good with pets as I grew up with a cat. I’m fun, and able to connect with kids. I love board games, card games, building legos, coloring, and doing puzzles. I am CPR certified. I look forward to connecting with you. I’m looking to pick up some jobs on the side for some extra income. I look forward to meeting you!

"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!"
