Aloha! My name is Keanna and I’m from Hawai’i but now living in the San Francisco Bay Area. For over 10 years, I have been working with children and families in varying capacities. I recently graduated from the University of San Francisco with a BA in Sociology and a concentration in Child & Youth Studies. While in college, I was a babysitter/nanny for multiple families caring for 1-4 children at a time. Some of my responsibilities included school pick-up/drop off, bedtime routines, planning fun and engaging activities in and out if the house, preparing meals and light household chores. I am the older sister of two younger brothers (age 8 and 10) and have much experience caring for kids in a household setting as well. It is my personal philosophy to play a positive and supportive role in a child's life in efforts to help nurture them into the person they would like to be!

Hello there! My name is Juabidun, and I have been babysitting for about 10 years now! I have primarily babysat my 3 younger siblings from when they were newborns, but I am also trusted with my cousin’s and aunt’s children. I can change diapers, feed children, and bathe as well (children who are able to stand and are potty-trained). I love being able to talk with children and watch them grow because I can see the next generation of people thriving in front of me. I also love to hear the ideas of young children about what they care about, believe in, and their future hopes. My biggest belief is that when taking care of children, being the most patient version of myself is crucial because these are beings that are still learning and growing. They deserve love, affection, and attention in order to become the best versions of themselves. In addition to these things, I am capable of doing light house-keeping/chores and am open to running small errands as well. I hope that I can be a great candidate in your babysitter hunt :)

Hi! I’m Lauryn. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids and getting to know their individual personalities. I spent 5 years in child care as a preschool teacher at Action Day Schools, a babysitter for multiple families, and a substitute teacher with Child Care Careers. I can keep kids engaged with games, crafts, creative activities, trips to the park, reading, or simply letting them lead the fun. I’m also happy to help with homework, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, tidying up after activities, and whatever else helps make your evening easier. I am comfortable taking care of children with special needs and have been active in the autism community my whole life as my older brother is autistic. Also, I used to volunteer for 4 years in high school at the local SPCA and am comfortable with any pets you may have :) As a sitter, my priority is making sure your children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to respect the varying routines and parenting styles of any family. I’ll always keep you updated and make sure you feel confident that your little ones are in good hands :) I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be a helping hand when you need it! 💕
