I worked with Rec & Park and ran afterschool programs throughout high school and college. I worked with children for many years as well as taking college courses on child education. I am very flexible and always want to ensure I am consistent and considerate with the care parents seek for their children.
Hello! My English name is Catherine. I have two sons, aged 5 and 6. My English is not very fluent, and I am currently taking Child Development (CDEV) courses.
Hello parents! I’m an experienced, exceptional San Francisco nanny available for occasional help on weekends or evenings. After spending over 9 wonderful years working as a full-time nanny for a family with 3 boys in the Marina District, followed by 4 years with a family in Russian Hill … just started to support the new family in The Presidio. I drive around the city in the SUV with 3 car seats/ boosters. About me: • Education - Professional early childhood educator with a Preschool Teacher Diploma from Poland. • Experience - over 15 years of experience as a nanny (working with newborns up to age 9) and family assistant in San Francisco • Personal background - single mom who successfully raised my own son. I am over 50 but young at heart, very active and energetic. • Childcare style - patient, emotional support, responsible, punctual, outdoor exploration, creative, and well organized. • Activities and engagement - I love arranging engaging indoor and outdoor activities. I especially enjoy introducing kids to art and craft projects. We often go on "adventures" together to discover all the fun, new things the city has to offer children. “My" kids end up with thousands of wonderful photo and video memories, a collection of cozy hand-made hats and blankets (I love to crochet!), and their very own Spotify playlists filled with their favorite songs. • Recommendations and testimonials - children often call me "the best nanny ever." and in the last recommendation letter I was described as a “Marry Poppins” 😅 Parents describe me as: an amazing, extraordinary, and truly exceptional nanny. A loving, attentive, warm, and trustworthy caregiver. Completely reliable, honest, punctual, and a professional self-starter. Energetic, playful, imaginative, and highly resourceful. Extremely knowledgeable about child development with a wonderful rapport with children. All of my recommendation letters are available to read in person during our interview. Spending time with children brings me an immense amount of joy and satisfaction, and I look forward to supporting your family! Availability: Weekdays - after 5:15 PM Weekends - flexible
Hello! My name is Moya and I’m a sophomore in college. I’ve loved caring for kids from ages 2-12 for a couple years now but have been working with elementary aged kids for much longer. My responsibilities have included cooking, cleaning, and light housework while as well as homework help, crafts, and all sorts of imaginative and engaging play. I love dogs and cats alike, and even have a big dog of my own, so caring for your pet as well as your child will be no problem at all. Red Cross First Aid
“Moya babysits our three kids (ages 5, 10 and 12) She’s very responsive and professional when scheduling, reliable, and is eager to jump on and help with whatever is needed. She has a calm and warm presence that my kids enjoy and I trust Moya’s judgment. She’s a great sitter!”
I am a college student at Skyline Community College. I have worked with youth since I was 16 years old. I was a camp counselor at San Francisco Park and Rec for two summers. For the last three years I have been working as an after school teacher for Stratford School in San Francisco. I enjoy sports of all kinds, I play basketball. I build a connection with kids through outdoor activities and sports. I am very patient and always open to listening and understanding.

"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!"
