Hello! My name is Lu (short for Luisa—easier to remember, right?). I’m excited to offer occasional babysitting services on weekends, weeknights, and overnight stays. As an experienced ESL teacher with over three years in the classroom, I bring a wealth of knowledge and creativity to my work with children. Beyond teaching, I’ve worked as both a live-in and live-out nanny for multiple families, caring for children of all ages. My experience includes managing the needs of larger families—such as four children in two households, three in another— and I’m currently the full-time nanny for two wonderful little ones: a five-year-old and a two year old toddler. I’m an active and creative person who loves spending time outdoors hiking, doing crafts, and engaging children in fun, hands-on activities. For older kids, I’m happy to provide craft or jewelry-making tutorials to help spark their creativity and encourage new skills. I’m known for being responsible, loving, honest, versatile, and open-minded—all qualities that I believe are essential for nurturing and guiding children. I grew up in a family that taught me the importance of respect, responsibility, and self-confidence, and I strive to instill these values in the children I care for. I firmly believe that home is a child’s first school, and I’ll do my best to create an environment where your children feel supported, inspired, and, of course, have a lot of fun! Thank you for considering me to care for your little ones. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and bring my experience and enthusiasm to your household. Warm regards, Lu

Hello Everyone! 😊I am a bilingual (Chinese and English), energetic, and genuine sitter who loves caring for children! I am here to offer childcare household, and pet services. I am ready to take on any task you hand my way! 🤗 I've previously worked at a summer camp for children aged 6-13. Here a few of responsibilities included: watching children, disinfecting classrooms before and after snack/ lunchtime, and communicating child's concerns with parents. I have also babysat for family members in the past (Toddlers- Elementary school aged). So I have experience changing diapers, working with shy children, playing engaging games, and having a fun time! 😄 I also enjoy playing sports, a few of which include: baseball, softball, golf, and basketball. I am always excited to indulge in a high intensity activity, or a calm night in. I am also highly skilled in cooking, and love creating delicious and unique dishes. If you would like to do an interview prior to hiring, I am also open to that. P.S: I am only available during the summer months (May- Early September).

Hi! My name is Eva, and I recently graduated from UC Santa Barbara with a B.S. in Psychology and just moved to San Francisco. I’ve been caring for younger kids my whole life and have years of babysitting experience with toddlers and school-age children. I’m happy to help with school pick-ups and drop-offs, homework support, crafts, and outdoor play. I can also cook kid-friendly meals, tidy play areas, and handle household cleaning. I love animals and am comfortable caring for pets, like cats and small dogs. Whether you’re looking for regular childcare or occasional date-night coverage, I am reliable and energetic and ready to help!

"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!"
