Bella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bella and I am a first grade teacher in Pacific Heights. I offer babysitting, tutoring, and pet sitting. I love working with and caring for children of all ages! I started babysitting and nannying in 2015 and have lots of experience with infants, toddlers, and young children. My responsibilities while babysitting have included driving children to and from school and activities, preparing easy meals, helping children with homework and reading, tidying up, and planning fun activities. I am CPR and epinephrine-injection certified, and hold a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and special education. I also earned dual-teaching licenses from Regis University in Denver, CO. I have done both full-time and part-time nannying, and I’m currently available anytime after 4 pm Monday-Friday and all day/night on weekends. I am looking for something part-time (1-3 shifts per week). Unfortunately, I do not have a car, and would prefer to not have to drive. Please let me know if you’re interested if you have any questions about me! Thanks so much! 😊

Hi! My name is Arianna and I was born and raised in San Francisco. I recently finished my second year at the University of Denver, where I’m studying psychology.

Koryn $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Koryn. I'm seeking to generate more income for my family. I enjoy being with infants, toddlers and children. I want to have control over my schedule and flexibility. Babysitting would be a good fit for this. Also, I live in the Richmond District and would like to offer that the children come to my home, as I have a lovely place with a yard and I'm close to the library, playgrounds and China Beach. I'm a mother of two teenagers. My husband and I raised my children in SF. My son is starting his senior year at SI in the Fall and my daughter, an honors graduate of SI, is starting her sophmore year at University of Wisconsin, Madison in the Fall. These days, I've more time to work and support the family financially - with children attending expensive programs this is important to me. I'm originally from the Hudson Valley in NY State. However, I've lived in SF for 25 years. I've work experience in corporate and nonprofits worlds. I understand the pressure and environments for moms and parents. Since 2018, I've been an on call Sr. Event Coordinator for the de Young and Legion of Honor. I loved exploring the city when my children were all ages. I also loved being home with them. I especially loved reading childrens' books with them - Two favorites are 'Stars' by Mary Lyn Ray and 'The Rabbit Listened' by Cory Doerrfeld. I'm prepared to speak to my experiences and open to questions. Look forward to hearing from you.

Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sophia, and I am a babysitter located in San Francisco. I started babysitting in 2025 (mainly kids 5 and above) and have worked a lot with kids in the past as a camp counselor. I am able to drive kids to and from school, and I love to connect with kids through art or non-electronic games. I am very punctual and reliable, and I am very empathetic and caring. I have learned how to navigate complex emotional situations with/between kids from my experience as a camp counselor, a skill that I bring into my babysitting, and I am going to UC Santa Cruz in the fall to study Psychology and Education. I have a background in music and singing as well. I am also an animal lover, and am happy to dog / cat sit. I am also open to house sit and act as a caretaker for seniors. I have helped out with performances for a few senior choirs in the past.

"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!"
