Hi, my name is Lisbeth and I currently live in San Francisco. I offer child care services. I truly enjoy working with children and have over two years of experience caring for kids of all ages, including toddlers and school-aged children. I love creating fun and educational activities, spending quality time with them, and joining in on their favorite games. I’m a patient, responsible, and caring person who enjoys building a positive connection with the families I work with. Spanish is my first language, and I’d be happy to teach your children if you’d like. I also speak English and feel comfortable around pets. I would be very happy to support your family and provide loving, reliable care.

Lisbeth was lovely! Our son warmed up to her immediately, and she did a great job with his dinner and bedtime routine. We’d love to have her back.

Hi, my name is Wendy! 👋🏼 ☺️ I have an Associate’s Degree of Arts: Social and Behavioral Sciences and I recently got my Bachelor’s in Psychology. Im starting a Grad School Program fall 2026 for a LMFT at USF. My academic goal is to be a kids therapist because I truly love working with kids and that is the reason why I like babysitting since I get an opportunity to work with them. I am the eldest daughter of 4 siblings who are all boys and that I cared for since they were born until they grow up older. So the reason why I am very patient and kind with babies, toddlers and children of any ages is because I got the experience from taking care of my little brothers. But since 2020 I have been a nanny for 5 different families for about 1 or 2 years with each long term family. I can surely provide phone numbers for recommendation as well! One thing about me is that I love talking to babies even though they can’t answer back ha! I like taking toddlers and babies on walks, to closest library or just to explore any part of your place! I also enjoy teaching them the numbers, colors and singing appropriate age songs with them as well! I also love reading books with them. And lastly with children of 6-10+ years old I like to play table games or even painting as well. I am also a Spanish and English Tutor at Grade Potential Tutoring and Tutor Hero - so if you would like me to teach/practice with your children Spanish or English that’s something I am willing to work with them too :)

Wendy was so helpful to us at the last minute! She quickly bonded with my two year old and I felt very comfortable leaving the two of them to play all day together. My daughter even woke up the next day asking for her, which was really sweet to see. Wendy was punctual, kind, a responsive communicator and we can't wait to have her back!

Hi there! I’m a warm, creative, and self-motivated caregiver with over 20 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. I prioritize working with families who are fully vaccinated and am excited to connect with those who need evening or late-night (disco nannying!) care. I have worked with newborns to 14 year olds. I’ve worked as a full-time nanny, evening babysitter, and in private schools in NYC and SF. Right now, I’m looking for part-time and consistent evening roles. I love making childcare fun and enriching! Some of my favorite activities with kids include creating art, singing, making music, dancing, baking, and reading stories. I believe the occasional movie night can be a great bonding experience too. My approach to childcare is soulful, joyful, and filled with shared stories and laughter. Fluent in both English and Spanish. Let’s connect!

Cynthia was lovely! She watched our 10 week old daughter and was very kind and professional. We’d love to have her back.

Booked by 40 families in Daly City, CA

Hello, My name is Ana, I have a 11 year old daughter & a 6 year old son. I have over 10 years experience with taking care of children. Some qualifications I have are, but not limited to being highly skilled in providing friendly atmosphere to children. Proven ability of keeping a watch on children to ensure safety. Able to timelessly provide consistently positive interactions with children. Well acquainted with games and arts and crafts projects. Know-how of changing diapers or assisting in toileting needs of children. Hands on experience in bottle-feeding babies and organizing eating habits of children. I am on my way to being CPR certified & have plenty of references. Also I am very excited to work with families to help with children’s development. I also can help with a family assistant role. Such as but not limited to Running errands, Prep meals and kids lunches, Washing dishes, Overseeing household maintenance, Scheduling appointments and activities, Home organization and decluttering, Washing dishes or loading/unloading the dishwasher, Folding laundry and switching loads, Tidying up play rooms, Grocery shop to stock the pantry, Prep dinner or kids lunches Thank you for your time & I look forward to meeting with you & your family.

Anna has been an incredible caregiver for our family and I recommend her highly. She cares for our two boys, ages 9 and 10, and is warm, dependable, responsible, and genuinely invested in them. I trust her completely driving them to school, sports, activities, and appointments in her own car, and she is excellent at keeping track of busy schedules and making sure everyone gets where they need to be. What I especially appreciate about Anna is that she takes initiative. She helps with meals and snacks, keeps things organized, and notices what needs to be done without needing constant direction. She is also patient and caring with the boys while still being able to manage the energy and independence of school-age kids. Anna has made our family’s day-to-day life significantly easier, and my boys have developed a wonderful relationship with her. She is someone I feel completely comfortable entrusting my children to, and I would absolutely recommend her to another family.
