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!

Hello ! My name is Ariana. I recently graduated from SFSU with a bachelors in nursing and currently working on my Masters. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have volunteered at Think Together after school program for about five years assisting and tutoring students. I helped raise and watch my three siblings and many cousins when I was ten. Ever since I just love taking care of children. I have so much patience and passion for the little ones and teens! I love creating activities or arts and crafts, reading, making towers with legos, and dancing. * I did take a long break from babysitting due to the outbreak. Then once I decided to resume I focused on my school and joined a beautiful nanny share.

“Ariana is great and our daughter loves playing with her. She's always super friendly, energetic and very professional.”

"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!"
