Autumn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Autumn. I have been working with children since I was sixteen years old and I am now 26. I recently moved to California from Colorado in May. In Colorado, I worked for an elementary school where I assisted children between the ages of four and eleven years old, primarily focusing on small group management, and building their educational skillsets. When school was out for the summer, I worked for a popular summer camp called Galileo. I recently worked at the Galileo in Burlingame this summer. Outside of that, I have done my fair share of babysitting and can provide references upon request. I currently work at an elementary school in Millbrae as a SPED paraprofessional. Aside from my experience in childcare, I graduated with a bachelors degree in photography at The University of Colorado Denver. I used to spend my free time volunteering at the Dumb Friends League animal shelter in Colorado. I also have experience in pet sitting and can provide references for that as well. I am an extremely organized and detail-oriented person. I am very tidy and believe that clean spaces will allow for more productivity. I am a very fun and nurturing person. People will often describe me as silly, engaging and loving. I am extremely good with kids between the ages of four and nine. While I don’t have much experience with infants, it is something I would be potentially open to. I have my own car and reliable transportation. I am looking forward to meeting and working with some wonderful and amazing families. Please reach out if you think I’d be a great fit for you.

Hello! My name is Chloe and I am currently a full-time social media manager. I have very flexible scheduling which allows me to do babysitting and pet sitting on the side. I’ve been babysitting for over 5 years now, primarily helping with kids between the ages 4 and 10. Tasks I regularly do while babysitting are cooking, cleaning, taking the kids for some time to play outdoors, take them to and from school, etc. I also used to assistant coach soccer so I don’t mind working with large groups of kids.

Daniela $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

With over five years of professional childcare experience, I provide high-quality, dependable, and nurturing care focused on children’s safety, development, and emotional well-being. I have worked with children from 3 months to 13 years old, creating structured, engaging, and developmentally appropriate environments that support each child’s individuality and growth. I am CPR, First Aid, and EpiPen certified, and trained to respond calmly and efficiently in any situation, ensuring a safe and secure environment for the children in my care. My experience includes working with children with autism, which has strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide individualized support based on each child’s unique needs. In addition to childcare, I offer comprehensive household support, including home organization, pet care, errands, transportation, and meal preparation. I take pride in maintaining a well-structured and harmonious home environment that helps families function smoothly and stress-free. I have been caring for children in the United States for the past two years (ages 2–7), and I also bring extensive long-term experience in Mexico, where I have worked with children ranging from 1 to 6 years old since 2013. I am a native Spanish speaker with an upper-intermediate level of English, which I continue to improve daily through professional experience and communication. I value clear, respectful, and reliable communication with families. I am dedicated, proactive, and deeply committed to providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can thrive.

Simone 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Becoming a caregiver felt natural after positive experiences babysitting. I have three years of experience caring for one child at a time. I have 13 younger cousins and have fostered about 45 dogs so I am comfortable with multiple children and/or pets. My approach is friendly and humorous, as I truly believe a good sense of humor is necessary while working with kids. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow a parent's preferred communication. I am also happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and pet care. I look forward to lending a helping hand! (:

Simone watched my son (3 m.o.) for several days while my husband and I transitioned back to work after parental leave. She handled the long days with an infant exceptionally well (naps, feeding, etc.) and we’re hoping to have her back to watch our toddler + the baby again soon!

"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!"
