Hi families! My name is Julissa and I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for children from as young as 2 months old up to 10 years old. I’m currently looking for a morning to help around! I’ve built a strong reputation with repeat clients who value my flexibility, patience, and ability to quickly connect with children. Whether it’s reading stories, going on nature walks, doing crafts, or just being silly and playful, I truly enjoy spending quality time with kids and keeping them safe, happy, and engaged. I’m reliable, easygoing, and always come with a positive attitude. If you’re looking for a trustworthy backup nanny or occasional sitter, I’d love to help! Thank you!
“Julissa was wonderful with my kids. She met them exactly where they were - ready to jump in and play games or go on a fun outing but also happy to give them space for independent activities. They had a great time with her! ”

“She was great. ”
Hi there! My name is Belén and I’m originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I’m a fashion designer graduate and I been living here for three year already. I love kids and I’m currently taking care of two girls of 5 and 8. I have experience with kids from 3 months old to 10 years old. I like playing with them, reading books, or do arts and craft. I even teached how to crochet to my kids. I consider myself as an artsy and crafty person and I enjoy sharing that with kids. I’m fluent in english but my native lenguage is spanish. Cheers, Belén (:
“Belen is the best. She cares for our two girls (5,3) and they adore her. She plays fun, creative games with the girls. We could not function without her. Belen is the greatest!!”
Hello! My name is Marisol and I am currently a full-time Community Health Outreach Worker in SFUSD. I have a Bachelor’s of Art degree in Social Welfare from the University of California, Berkeley along with a minor in Gender and Women’s studies. I hope to one day become a social worker and continue working within SFUSD, serving the communities I love! Due to my daytime job, I am only seeking occasional jobs during evenings or on weekends. I have about 10 years of experience working with children in different settings. I began by caring for my own family members while in high school, and with time, branched out to other families within the Bay Area. Over summers, I work as a kindergarten teacher at a day camp where I lesson plan daily for a group of about 15 6-7 year olds. I really enjoy doing arts & crafts, academic support, and assisting youth in exploring their interests. Some of my past responsibilities as a babysitter/nanny have included pick-up/drop-off, going out to local activities, bedtime routines, and light tidying. I am also open to helping run errands! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or just to connect!
“Marisol was attentive and patient with my 19 month old! Would recommend. She even folded clothes and tidied while our little one was napping. ”
Hello, my name is Michelle. I am a mother of adult children and a proud grandmother of eight. I have been caring for children for many years, including helping raise my grandchildren from newborn through school age. My oldest grandchild is now 28, and my youngest is 9. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. Most recently, I cared for a baby boy for a year until the family relocated. In February, I also helped a family by caring for their 3-year-old and assisting as a mother’s helper after they welcomed a newborn. In addition to childcare, I have experience with school drop-offs and pick-ups, and I am comfortable with flexible, changing schedules. I provide household support services during the evening hours. My responsibilities include folding laundry, meal preparation, cooking dinner, cleaning up after meals, loading and unloading the dishwasher, and vacuuming kitchen and dining areas. I worked with a family in San Francisco for over three years, both before and after COVID. During that time, I assisted with laundry, organizing kitchen cabinets, closets, and children's wardrobes, maintaining kitchen cleanliness, and preparing vegetables and ingredients for the week. I am flexible and dependable, and I am happy to take on whatever household tasks are needed to help keep a home running smoothly and efficiently. I also provide pet care and dog sitting, as I truly love animals. I am reliable, nurturing, and experienced, and I would be happy to support your family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. ⸻
“Michelle was very punctual and communicative! Thank you Michelle!”

"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!"
