Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

I’m a credentialed middle school science teacher in San Francisco with 4+ years of classroom experience. I’m calm, reliable, and enjoy creating a safe, engaging environment for kids of all ages. I’ve also spent a lot of time caring for my young nephews and supporting family members through end-of-life care, which has deepened my patience and attentiveness. I have a near-perfect driving record and am happy to help with school pickup, homework, and outdoor activities.

Asia has been a wonderful family member and occasional caregiver to my elementary age oldest kid. She also can take on the two younger ones, who are twins of preschool age. She was so sweet and helpful with them when they were infants and is great with kids at the toddler age as well. Asia is organized and good at rolling with kids’ curiosity and playfulness. She is also a thorough communicator and a great partner in babysitting. If you ask her to pay attention to a certain thing or leave you some information about how the day went, she will go above and beyond. She is great at checking her messages and staying in touch, as well. Highly recommend. Five stars. 😉

Hello! Nice to meet you! My name is Nicole, I am a current college student and offer child care, pet care and housekeeping services. Some skills I have include painting, arts and crafts, playing sports such as basketball and football, martial arts, and dancing. I also provide household services such as cleaning, organizing, laundry, and cooking. I love being a child caretaker and making them smile and having fun with them! I have several years of experience in taking care of children especially preschoolers and the ages of 4-6. I also had experience teaching elementary school children about healthy living and have experience tutoring children. I also have several years of experience taking care of pets such as dogs, rabbits, and birds as a pet owner.

Nicole exceeded all of my expectations. My son can sort of take advantage of new sitters but she did amazing. She jumped right in starting playing with him, helped make dinner so I could get ready, gave my son a bath (which wasn’t a requirement nor did I think he would want one), and got him AND his best friend to bed. Both children under 4. She was communicative the entire time she was at my house. My son woke up in the morning asking where she went because he wanted her to stay. Will definitely be using her again in the future.

"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!"
