Find an emergency babysitter in San Francisco, CA

a mother myself, I bring both personal understanding and hands-on experience in caring for children of all ages. I truly enjoy engaging kids in meaningful ways-whether through reading, painting, games, outdoor activities, or simply supporting their daily routines with patience and care. Families describe me as loving, reliable, and attentive. I'm also highly organized, a strong multitasker, and always punctual. Beyond childcare, I'm a dedicated yoga practitioner, naturally caring, and an animal lover. With excellent references available, I am confident in my ability to provide a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment for your children.

Hi there! I've been a nanny this summer for a family with a now 4 month old and 2 year old. They're currently on vacation so I'm looking for some shifts to fill my time before I go back to college at the beginning of September. I go to school on the east coast and I'm studying anthropology. I'd love to support your family!

I'm calm, positive, and responsible (and French). I like working with kids because they see the world in a way that makes it more beautiful. I love their curiosity, intelligence, and joy in little things. I'm looking for a part-time job (9 a.m. -4 p.m. ) since I have a little girl who needs her mom too, with a family where I can build a warm, trusting relationship with the children. I started working with kids when I moved to San Francisco a year ago. I picked up a 3 and a 5-year-old from school and helped with their workbooks, and looked after two girls, aged 2 and 4, with drawing, reading, and role-play. In May, I welcomed my own baby girl, my most full-time job yet! In my spare time, I like to walk, read, travel, and see friends. As a mom, I take your children's safety and well-being as seriously as you do. My skills: speaking French with kids through songs, books, and games; creative play like role-play, drawing, and baking; patience and reliability.

Hi, I’m Ben. I am a student at the University Of San Francisco Law School and live in the Pac Heights Area. I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old so I have lots of experience with kiddos of all ages. I love to play, encourage creativity, get active (sports, walks, parks), and have a flexible school schedule. Please reach out if you’d like to talk about nanny or babysitting opportunities.

My name is Sofia. I am 26 years old and grew up in the Bay Area. As a half-American, half-Argentine, I speak both English and Spanish fluently. I have always loved working with children. From a young age I enjoyed babysitting for local families and playing with my neighbors' children. Later, I began taking full-time nanny jobs wherein I was responsible for meals, baths, pickups, and homework. This opportunity to form relationships with children was so fulfilling that I decided to pursue teaching at a local Steiner-inspired school after graduating college. The curiosity and enthusiasm of the children made teaching an immensely satisfying job, it didn't really feel like a job half of the time! Though I paused teaching in order to pursue other passions, I miss the connection which the job allowed and would love to reconnect to childcare in a some way. In my work I emphasize imaginative and outdoor play, consistent and loving boundaries, and healthy rhythms to ensure a joyful, nutritive, and reliable environment for the children. In particular, I enjoy singing, dancing, storytelling, art making, and exploring with the children I care for. I cook and clean. I have a car, a clean driver license, and significant experience driving children. I also have experience caring for seniors, and have enjoyed this immensely. I am comfortable taking care of pets as well. I am looking forward to meeting your family!
