Hi I’m Layci and I have been an educator for over 10 years and working as an elementary school teacher for the past 8 years teaching 1st-6th grades. I have been a nanny and babysitter for families all around the Bay Area for over 14 years. I have experience with newborns, infants, toddlers and children with special needs. I have helped families as a night nanny and with various medical needs as well. I love animals and have grown up around cats, dogs, geckos, hamsters and bunnies. I also have my own urban outdoor garden and love indoor plants as well. I am reliable, confident, and fun. I am firm but warm and while I set boundaries, I also adhere and defer to family expectations and dynamics. I love working with kids and enjoy being able to create engaging and fun activities. I will engage in imaginative play, arts and crafts, and science experiments. I can cook and help with light clean up. I have references upon request, and happy to provide a cell number if you are interested in talking more. I can’t wait to get to know your family!
“Layci was great! She came well prepared with activities and my daughter had so much fun with her.”

I was a Troop Leader for scouts, worked as a tutor and mentor for middle and high school students. I have experience babysitting children of all ages, particularly toddlers. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates about their child's day.

I’m also a former swim instructor, so if your child needs swim lessons I’m more than happy to chat about it :)

Hi! My name is Melissa and I’m a full-time healthcare professional working in San Francisco. I offer evening and weekend babysitting for families who need reliable care for date nights or occasional help. I have several years of babysitting experience and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with dinner, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines, and I always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment while parents are away. Families describe me as responsible, patient, and dependable. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children with someone they trust, and I always strive to make evenings smooth and stress-free for everyone. I’m based in Mission Bay and happy to help families in nearby neighborhoods such as Dogpatch, Potrero Hill, SoMa, and surrounding areas. I’m also comfortable with pets and light tidying after activities. Looking forward to helping families enjoy a worry-free night out!
“She is simply the best! My toddler daughter loved every second she spent with Melissa!”
