Find an emergency babysitter in San Francisco, CA

I’m originally from Colombia and recently moved to San Francisco from Colorado to continue my education while doing what I truly love—supporting families and caring for children. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Education with an emphasis in Physical Education, and over four years of experience working with newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. Before moving to the U.S., I worked as an elementary school teacher, and during the past few years I’ve worked as both an au pair and a nanny, caring for children from 2 months to 16 years old. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I believe every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore the world around them. I enjoy planning creative activities, crafts, outdoor adventures, reading, and helping children learn through play. Families describe me as warm, caring, patient, organized, responsible, and dependable. I naturally take initiative, keep routines running smoothly, and love creating a calm, positive environment where both children and parents feel supported. Beyond childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, organizing, errands, and pet care—whatever helps make your family’s day a little easier.

I'm a caring and creative caregiver with hands-on experience as a preschool teacher, where I worked with children ages 2-5 for a full school year. In the classroom, I have worked with children with neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism. I have over 6 months of babysitting/nannying experience working with 8-month-olds to 11-year-olds. In addition, I am an eldest daughter who has basically raised my younger sisters, who are now in their late teens, so I technically have years of experience with up to 17-year-olds. I have an associate's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, giving me a strong understanding of developmental stages and age-appropriate care. I am also First-Aid & CPR-certified and fully vaccinated. My top strengths include planning engaging activities, encouraging imaginative play, and supporting children's growth in a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. I love helping kids learn, explore, and feel confident being themselves!

I’m a mom of five amazing kids, ranging from elementary school to high school, with years of hands-on experience caring for children through every stage—from newborns and toddlers to teenagers. As a co-parent, I now have more flexibility in my schedule and would love the opportunity to support another family. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and miss the baby and toddler years. Whether it’s rocking a baby to sleep, reading stories, building forts, playing outside, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I’m happy to jump in wherever I’m needed. Families describe me as patient, dependable, calm, and nurturing. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can trust, and I would treat your children with the same care and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can count on.
