Booked by 123 families in Daly City, CA

Hi, I’m Natalia! I’ve been living in San Francisco for the past eleven years, though I’m originally from Sacramento. I went to USF and graduated in 2018, and I currently work as a Marketing Director in the interior design industry. Childcare has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As the oldest sibling, I started babysitting my younger brothers and sisters when I was 11, and I also spent 8 years helping out in my mom’s in-home daycare. Since then, I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to teenagers—for over 15 years. I also have experience with kids with special needs, along with volunteer work in tutoring and mentoring. When I babysit, I love keeping kids engaged, whether that’s playing games, heading outside for fresh air, reading together, or helping with homework. I’m also happy to cook simple meals and help keep the house tidy. Families say I’m energetic, caring, and attentive, and I truly enjoy spending time with kids and being part of their day.

Hello! My name is Ran. I’m from Japan and moved here two months ago for working as a nanny. I’m offering child care, pet care and some household services. I have worked at daycare for 0 to 5 years old kids in Japan for a year. I really enjoyed playing, singing, dancing, painting, or taking a walk with them. I currently take care of 6 months old baby and take responsibility for playing, feeding, preparing for meals, napping and taking to a park. I also can do some household such as doing laundry, folding them, washing dishes, easy cooking or organizing rooms. Moreover, I am a big dog lover and I have a dog in Japan. I would love to look after your pets if you need.

“Ran was friendly, professional, and thorough for our 11 month old. We would happily hire her again!”

Hello! My name is Tyler and I have been providing childcare to families in SF since 2019. My work has ranged from occasional babysitting, being a mothers helper in the early mornings, and working as a nanny. For a year, I served as an assistant teacher in an infant program at a Montessori school in San Francisco, caring for infants aged 3 to 18 months. My responsibilities included changing, feeding, adhering to nap schedules, providing enriching activities, tracking milestones, and responding to the children's cues and needs. I previously served as a nanny for a family in Cow Hollow from 2[removed]. I helped them with morning drop off and after school pick up, homework help, as well as taking their kids to their various after school activities. I have also provided overnight care for them while there parents went out of town. I have extensive experience in providing childcare and I genuinely love working with children. If you have any questions or would like to discuss references, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

“Tyler was great with my 1 year old. She was attentive, kind and engaging. She sent updates throughout the day and reached out with any concerns she had. I will definitely be using Tyler again! ”

"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!"
