Hi! I’m looking for a part-time evening and weekend nanny or babysitting role. I’m CPR certified and work full-time as a pharmacist, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, safety awareness, and attention to detail. I have prior childcare experience from high school caring for one infant and two children under the age of 10. I truly enjoyed being a sitter and miss those times—I love creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment for kids. I’m patient, dependable, and happy to help with routines, playtime, and light childcare-related tasks. I also have experience with pets as I have a husky and have been a dog walker/sitter on Rover.
Hi everyone! My name is Valentina and I am a credentialed elementary school teacher looking to transition back into nannying. I have a bachelors in Psychology as well as a masters in Teaching, and was a 5th grade public school teacher from 2[removed]. Prior to that I was a nanny for many years, both part time and full time. I’ve been a full time nanny since 2023, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule that I’m hoping to fill! I'm educated in child development from infancy through teenage years and have over 6 years of experience with kids and infants between newborn all the way to school age. I am comfortable with anything between tummy time, bottle feedings, nap training all the way to homework help/tutoring. In addition, I love pets, am fluent in both Spanish and English, have a cleared background live scan check with CPR certification, and have a clean driving record. I love being able to provide families with the security that their child is safe and in good hands as well as making sure to provide an engaging, warm, and safe environment for the kids. I don't take for granted the meaningful relationships that are built along the way. Hope to hear from you all soon!
“Valentina was wonderful! She was punctual, super friendly and engaging with our kids as soon as she arrived. We'd definitely recommend her. She handled our two boys (ages 5 1/2 and 4) like a pro :)”
Hi families! My name is Melany, and I’m a CPR & First Aid certified nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages from infants to school-aged kids. Working with children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy helping little ones learn, feel safe, and have fun. Parents describe me as warm, patient, and very responsible. I always arrive on time, communicate clearly, and care for every child as if they were my own family. I’m also an international psychology student, which helps me understand child behavior, emotional development, and how to support kids with gentle, positive guidance. What I offer: • CPR & First Aid certified • 10+ years of childcare experience • Calm, nurturing personality • Strong communication and reliability • Experience with bedtime routines and creative play • Comfortable with pets (I love animals!) I would love to support your family and create a safe, fun environment where your child feels happy and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you!
“Melany was so great! She is reliable, professional and takes wonderful care of our toddler.”
Kind, nurturing, dependable mom 😊 here. New born to teenagers, I've been there and cared for them all. Experienced with ASD, ADHD, and deaf children. Multiple children, twins and care at events. Skilled at organization, household management, travel planning and project management. CPR, First Aid, Fire, Safety, Earthquake Response Trained / Cert. Non-smoker. TDAP, MMR, Flu up to date; as well as all other current vaccines. I enjoy teaching my autistic grandson, hanging out with my deaf daughter, or working on an engineering project. 🤗 I can sew on buttons and make minor repairs in clothes. I am fantastic at fabric paint, arts and crafts, etc. I like organizing, cleaning and cooking. Used to live on a farm growing up, there is no pet in your home that would intimidate me. * Special note: I am a living kidney donor to my friends son in 2013. I prefer not look after children who are very ill. If your child is running a fever, vomiting, or has just begun a raspy cough I would expect you pass me by; I will not show up to your home in this manner as well. Thank you for honoring my request.

Hi, I'm Wendi--a really fun sitter who has worked with kids of all ages for over twenty years. I'm also a mom who has had a fantastic time raising four kids in SF. I love working with groups of kids and was a Nursery Director for seventeen years caring for children from birth to age three. Currently, I teach first and second-grade at a public charter school which led me into the adventure of homeschooling my 13-year-old daughter. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are read, bake, explore Golden Gate Park, and play board games. I have also facilitated regular parenting classes dealing with topics such as anxiety in the home, choosing the right SF school for your child, and how to bring "play" into your daily routines. Your kids will be safe and have tons of fun. I look forward to meeting you.
“Wendi was fantastic! I try not to leave the kiddo with a new person when I need him to be put through the bedtime routine, but we were in a pinch. Wendi took the job on short notice answering saved the day!”

"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!"
