Samantha $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Samantha and I am currently a 25 year old nursing student! I'm a caring and dependable sitter who truly loves spending time with kids! With babysitting experience going back to my teen years (plus lots of auntie duties with my nieces and nephews!), I bring tons of enthusiasm, patience, and creativity to every sit and have genuine love for what I do. I'm big on keeping kids engaged with fun activities or adventures, and since I'm a huge Disney fan, I always have something to connect with the little ones over! 🏰 I grew up with pets my whole life, so your furry family members are in great hands too! Whether it's dogs, cats, or both! Beyond childcare, I'm also available for: • 🏠 House sitting • 🐾 Pet sitting • 🧹 Household chores • 🛒 Errands And for your peace of mind, I am BLS/CPR certified, so you can feel confident your family is safe and cared for while you're away. I'd love the opportunity to work with your family!

Nayeli $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Nayeli. I just finished up my degree at SFSU majoring in Early Care and Education. I love working with kids. I am fun, energetic, and easy to work with. I can be flexible with hours when needed. The services I provide are tutoring, cooking, and other house chores. I am currently working as a preschool teacher at a family center in the mission. I have worked there for over two years. My duties here include activity planning, meal times, and supporting children during nap time as well. I also have experience working with toddlers when I was a substitute. My experience with pets has been with small dogs and cats. My duties were to clean after them, feed them, and playtime. I am also cpr and first aid certified!

Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi families! For over 5 years, I have experience taking care of children of all ages. My love and dedication for children led me to do social work in the interior of São Paulo in indigenous villages and orphanages, where I had the opportunity to care for and interact with children of different ages and cultures. I have references from some mothers and fathers who have entrusted their children to me, and I can provide their contact details so that you can check my skills and competence as a babysitter. I have a driver's license, first aid and firefighter training, and I can help children with their homework, including in English. Regarding activities with children, I love telling stories that take them to a magical world of their own and develop linguistic and cognitive skills, or playing games that stimulate logical reasoning, memory, cooperation and problem solving. Oh, and I also feel comfortable and love any type of pet. I appreciate your attention and consideration.

It is something I enjoy. I'm the eldest of my siblings and quite often cared for them, I've been in childcare for quite bit.
