Laura Sausalito
$30 per hour for 1 child

- Looking for one time or occasional jobs. Hi! I'm Laura, 26, from Brazil. I'm new to this app but not to childcare! I've been working with children since 2020, when I started teaching (over 9, 000 hours of experience). I've cared for kids of all ages, volunteered with underprivileged children, and worked as an au pair in the U. S., caring for a toddler, a 7-year-old girl, and twin boys. I'm very organized, responsible, and energetic, kids naturally match my energy! I love keeping them active and creative through arts & crafts, story time, baking, outdoor play, and learning activities. I'm CPR & First Aid certified, a good swimmer and driver, and a confident cook who can follow any recipe. I speak Portuguese (native), English (fluent), and Spanish (conversational). I'm always punctual and communicative. I want parents to feel comfortable and know their children are in good hands.

Delilah Richmond
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Delilah, and I am a dedicated and compassionate nanny with several years of hands-on childcare experience. I spent one year working as a nanny at Tiny Giants San Francisco, where I supported children in a nurturing, structured, and engaging environment before transitioning into private nannying. In addition to my childcare background, I work as a medical receptionist at a clinic and am currently a pre-nursing medical student at Contra Costa College. I also hold an Associate’s degree from San Francisco State University, which has strengthened my communication, organization, and responsibility skills—qualities I bring into every family I work with. I truly love working with children and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and positive space where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my Aussiedoodle, Bruno, who often joins me on my adventures. Caring for others is not just a job for me—it’s a passion, and I find so much joy in building meaningful connections through my career as a nanny.
