Booked by 4 families in Daly City, CA

Hi! I am a recent graduate from the University of San Francisco and have been a nanny in the city for over a year now. I have ~10 years of babysitting experience, I now work for a few families, and they have recommended me to others on numerous occasions. I truly believe children are our future and want to foster a fun but safe space for them. I try to make time for fun, including indoor and outdoor activities, but try to incorporate time for reading or more education based games. Respecting kids’ autonomy is also really important to me, letting them speak and advocate for themselves but still expecting respect and keeping on schedule.

Kaylen was fantastic with our 18 month old son. She was on time and quickly learned his afternoon and dinner routine. We'd definitely have her back to look after our kids.

Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi, I'm Hanna! I have over 10 years of babysitting experience caring for children from 3 months to 10 years old. I also spent 2 years working in a pediatric medical practice, which gave me valuable experience supporting children and families. I've provided after-school care, evening care, and bedtime routines for children of all ages. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and engaging. During the week, I work in tech sales in San Francisco and am available for evenings and weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and creating a safe and engaging environment where parents can feel confident their children are in good hands.

Hi, my name is Kate and I am a Masters student. I offer child care, senior care, and can help with a variety of household tasks. I’ve taken care of younger siblings and cousins for many years. I went to Dartmouth College where I studied Statistics and Studio Art (painting). I have been a tutor for all subjects from elementary to high school, and have also helped many high schoolers with college essay and test prep. I can cook and have a clean drivers license. I grew up with a German Shepherd and am comfortable with dogs. My hobbies include biking, reading, singing, and painting, all of which I love to do with kids!

Booked by 3 families in Daly City, CA

Hi! My name is Valentina. I’m a Chilean-certified Early Childhood Teacher and Montessori Guide looking for extra babysitting, nannying, light household duties or pet care opportunities during the week and/or on weekends. I have over 5 years of experience working with children, as well as excellent recommendations from families I still keep in touch with today. I recently renewed my CPR certification for both children and adults. I’m very punctual, organized, responsible, and active. I love creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment for children, and I’m also happy to help with light household duties, such as tidying up, meal prep, or organizing things. As a vegan and animal lover, I would also be happy to be considered for pet care roles. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions

It has been a pleasure working with Valentina and having her in our home. Not only is she punctual, but our little ones look forward to seeing her. Cannot recommend enough!

Maira 1 review

Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi! I’m Maira, and I have over five years of experience caring for children between the ages of 3 month and 13 years old. I’d describe myself as kind, responsible, and patient. I genuinely enjoy working with kids because I love watching them learn, grow, and explore the world. I’m looking for a nanny position where open communication is valued, and I can create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for the children. In my free time, I enjoy yoga and exercise, which help me stay active and energized. One thing you should know about me is that I have experience as an assistant teacher at a Montessori school, which has given me valuable skills in child development and hands-on learning approaches. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience and care to your family!

Maira was great with our 3 month old! Helped us with playtime and putting her down for a nap! Will definitely use her 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!"
