Booked by 11 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi, my name is Lisa and I am offering child. I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified by the American Red Cross as of Nov 2025, and up to date on flu & Covid vaccines. I’m a dog mom to Callie (featured in my photo) and am a natural care taker. I started babysitting when I was 13 years old and have taken care of infants, toddlers, small children and pre-teens. I enjoy spending time with my friends and their children. In my free time I enjoy being outdoors (hiking, tennis etc), being active (yoga, Pilates), trying new restaurants with friends, traveling, walks with my dog, art, volunteering (tutoring middle school children). * Please note, I’ve returned to families houses for babysitting but via text, so it’s not recorded on the app that I’ve had returning visits. **I accept cash and venmo, but cannot accept credit cards. Childhood development is an area that’s always interested me as I helped care for my sister (who was born when I was 13), and I am considering getting my masters in the field to ultimately make a career transition. Thanks in advance for your consideration!

“Lisa was very reliable & kind!”

Booked by 8 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi there! My name is Leticia. I’m 26 years old and originally from Brazil. I’ve been working as a nanny for 7 years and have experience with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and known for being caring, responsible, patient, and creative. Throughout the years, I’ve worked in different settings, including nanny share with infants and caring for +3 children at once, which made me comfortable managing routines, multitasking, and adapting to each child’s needs. I enjoy exploring outdoors with kids, and when we’re inside, getting creative with arts and crafts and engaging activities. I’m available for occasional babysitting and date nights, primarily in Marin County, but I’m also open to San Francisco. I have my own car, a clean driving record, and I speak fluent English and Portuguese. Strong references are available upon request. I’d love to help out! 🌻💕

Hey everyone! I’m Dominika, a nanny with 7 years of experience caring for children. My experience spans various age groups, including strong experience with infants (including sleep training) as well as children ages 2–13. I’ve completed an Early Childhood Education program to ensure I provide the best care for your kiddos! 😊 If you’re interested, I’d be more than happy to share more details about my past experience through direct messages. I consider myself a proactive, loving, and reliable nanny who truly enjoys spending time with children. I like to keep things fun, engaging, and organized, while also making sure each child feels safe and supported. I really value open communication and am always happy to adjust to each family’s needs and routines. I also have a driver’s license, my own car, and I’m CPR certified. If you’re interested, I’d love to share more about my experience and chat further; feel free to message me anytime!

Hi hi! My name is Stephanie - I also respond to Steph. Why I’m here: Hanging out with kiddos reminds me how brand new and incredible the world can feel. Reminding me to embrace creativity, and make time to play while incorporating the needs to rest and listen to our bodies. Having the responsibility of caring for the littles (or not so littles) involves constant and meaningful learning opportunities. Not to mention, while in their company I find myself absorbing new perspectives. Seeing things from such a different angle where the world can still appear brand new and exciting if you can keep your eyes open. It reminds me to look forward to and cherish the small and often overlooked aspects that bring us together. I find that it can be incredibly fun watching them encounter new experiences while being so determined to master bran new skills overtime. It is truly inspiring that when faced with a challenge they can often feel confident enough navigate when they’re called to. Knowing that I am there to support them when the confidence doesn’t feel so strong has come to feel like such an honor. A bit about me; I have just a recently moved back to beautiful San Francisco after spending a short moment in Denver, Colorado. I am so happy to be home and living in the first city with my two dogs diamond in the boxer and Rocky the Malinois. In my free time, I enjoy nothing more than relaxing outside, and soaking up the sun. I do spend a lot of time Working with training my dogs. Mainly Rocky as diamond is 10 years old now and a lot more reserved. Those babes are my entire life and closest companions. I find fascination in how responsive and intelligent they both are. Thank you for taking the time to read and hope to chat soon. Kindly, Steph.

Booked by 14 families in Sausalito, CA

Hello, Bay Area Families! My name is Ashley, and it’s great to meet you. I really enjoy babysitting kids and getting to know them and their unique personalities! I am an Aunt to five nieces and nephews under the age of 10, who live in Phoenix and Kansas City, and a dog mom to a miniature Aussiedoodle, Charles Barkley “Chuck”. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and have a working proficiency of French. I mainly babysat for one family with three young boys from the age of 14-17 during high school in the evenings and weekends in Wichita, Kansas. I went to school in New York City and nannied throughout the week, and babysat during the weekend for a few families with elementary school age children. I studied abroad in France and nannied for one family for the duration of my six months where I helped their three children with their English language skills, and primarily cared for their youngest child. I have lived in SF for 7 years, and am looking for occasional evening sits. Please reach out and let me know if I can help!

“Ashley was really thoughtful about confirming / being on time / associated logistics. She was very engaged with our kids and followed up my walkthrough with a lot of questions. Really kind and easy-going. My kids had a great time.”

"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!"
