Hello! My name is Aniyah. Here is a little bit about myself, I currently attend San Francisco State University Studying Child & Adolescent Development with a concentration in Early Care & Education. I have 7 years experience working with children and 4 years in the school setting from levels infant-kindergarten. I am seeking to find a family that will benefit from my expertise in the field of early childcare. I am familiar with diapering, napping, and feeding schedules. I encourage creativity and learning. I also am open to make activities and encourage more comprehension skills. I enjoy outdoor adventures, whether thats a trip to the pool, park & rec classes, the park, the zoo, Academy of Science, Botanical Garden, Conservatory of Flowers and much more. I love working with the young child as this is their most developmental period! I am passionate about early childhood, building our future leaders and encouraging this developmental period. I aspire to be inspiring! I am a full-time student, my current schedule is flexible and I will keep open communication with any updates that come up. Best Wishes, Aniyah
Hello Families! My name is Sophia and I have a degree in Early Childcare Education. I’ve been a childcare provider since 2012 working at various preschools in San Francisco as well as babysitter for families all over SF. I specialize with the needs of infants to grade school children. I love taking children on fun outdoor explorations such as Golden Gate Park to dive deep in nature within the city!
“Sophia was amazing! She immediately connected with my two kiddos (my 9 month old has major stranger anxiety) and she got them both happily to sleep. You can tell she’s comfortable with kids of all ages. We definitely recommend Sophia and can’t wait to see her again!”
Hi! I work in Human Resources full-time; I love babysitting (16 years experience) and spending time with kids. I played on the Cal Poly Pomona Women's Soccer Team for 4 years. I coached sports camps from when I was 15-23 and enjoy being outdoors, playing board games, and going to parks.
Hello, my name is Maricella and I am passionate about caring for infants, toddlers, and children with special needs. I began studying child development and working in classrooms 12 years ago. Now that I have changed to a career in Tech I would like to continue fostering my passion for child care by supporting families in my community. Most recently I have provided regular care for twin boys from infancy to the age of two, as well as care for another infant over the past 9 months. My care includes daycare pick-ups, cooking, and pet care as well. I hope to help your family soon!
“I highly recommend Maricella! She has been taking care of my 2.5 year-old on our occasional date nights, and she is absolutely the best!! My son adores her, and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and so sweet with him. It’s clear she truly enjoys spending time with children. Every time I come home, I find him happy, safe, and well cared for. We feel very lucky to have found her!”

"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!"
