Hi my name is Krystal and I have been babysitting since I was about 12 or 13 and love it! I babysit children of all ages and enjoy playing outside games or even staying inside to play. In my spare time I enjoy watching and playing sports, baking, and volunteering! I have volunteered at soup kitchens, marathons, and the Ronald McDonald House!

Hello there! I’ve been working as a teacher for children for the past 10 years or so, and I’ve worked as a babysitter/nanny several times as well. I love at home activities like arts & crafts, cooking, or reading/writing, but I also enjoy field trips away from home to get kids running around. I’ve worked with all kinds of kids and students so I’m pretty adaptable to most settings. I’ve worked abroad in the past as well , so I have many cultural experiences to share. 广东话没事 国语还可以 日本語も少し話せます I have a bit of a fur allergy though, so unfortunately I’m not great with pets. Mainly looking for part time work. Thanks so much for your consideration!

Michelle was great! She quickly got Gia to calm down and read her books before bedtime. Will happily hire again!

Hi! I’m Kym! I’m 23, originally from Ohio, and moved to SF about a year ago for my job at the Levi’s home office. Outside of my corporate 9-5, spending time with kids is one of my favorite ways to step out of the work bubble! I’ve been babysitting for ~6 years and have regularly cared for multiple families, with kids ranging from 3 months to 12 years old. I’m super comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and schedules, and really meeting each kid where they’re at! A little about my experience: - Ages: 3 months–12 years - Special needs: G-tube care, severe allergies, ASD - Certifications: REACH certified + CPR certified Availability: I’m available any time outside of 9-5 M-F. I’m open to evening/date-night sitting, weekend help, and occasional care! A little more about me: I love cooking, thrifting/fashion, music festivals, taking corepower classes, and soccer/futsal! If you think we could be a good fit, I’d love to connect! I’m happy to share strong references, social media, vax records, or any other info that would be helpful. 💝

Hi! My name is Mariana, I’m an art student and childcare provider with 6+ years of experience currently offering backup care and occasional babysitting. Also open to pet sit! (I’m a dog owner and lover hehe). I’m a responsible, dedicated and experienced professional nanny with a background in art education - very creative and patient. I absolutely love working with kids and have been watching infants through toddlerhood and kids - including siblings and experience in a nanny share set up. My responsibilities have included driving to/ from school and activities, museum/ library/ parks visits, arts and crafts and help with school projects/ homework. My job also involves cooking/ cleaning after the kids and running errands for the families if need to. I’m originally from Brazil and I love traveling and learn new cultures. I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish and I’m learning Italian. I can adapt and learn with ease. Currently I have a fix schedule with a couple of families and looking forward working with new amazing families either in a regular basis or occasionally. Open to last minute backup care if I’m available - i keep my calendar up to date. Happy to schedule phone/ video interviews and I do my best to keep parents comfortable while their kiddos are on my care! Thank you :)

It was my first time leaving my baby with someone and Mariana eased all my worries and handled everything (including bedtime) like a pro!
