Hello! I'm Cassidy and I'm a junior at SFSU. I am offering child care and household services. I started babysitting a bit more than a year now, but have worked with children since I was 16 (volunteering at an elementary after-school program). I love being creative with children, so I do crafts, draw, build, and make up games with kids when I babysit them. I also have experience helping kids with homework and am happy to provide extra academic support! I can drive to the kids' appointments or anywhere needed, cook, and clean. I am allergic to cats.
Hi, I’m Olli and I’m looking to add some babysitting onto my plate! I am currently a preschool teacher in the 2’s classroom. I have experience as a teacher with 4 and 5 year olds as well. I have a car and can drive. I have my bachelors in psychology and am currently taking early childhood education classes. I love being around kids and helping them navigate the world. Familiar with diapers and potty training! :)
I’m an Associate Teacher at an all girls school teaching 2nd grade. I’ve babysat for almost 4 years now and I’ve also spent weeks watching and taking care of my 2 year old nephew. Please let me know if you have any questions :)
Hi! I'm Sophia and I've dedicated over 5 years to professional childcare, including roles at institutions such as the Sonoma State Children's School, Stanford Children's Center, and the Youth Science Institute. Currently, I'm pursuing a graduate degree in clinical mental health counseling and my goal is to become a specialized therapist for kids, combining practical experience with academic insight. I also am currently working in Class 1 at Heritage Montessori in Lake Forest. I'm deeply passionate about fostering creativity, providing a nurturing environment, and supporting the holistic well-being of the children I care for. Excited to bring my expertise and enthusiasm to your family and make a positive impact!
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 profile picture is me with my two children when they were much younger!) 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.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
