Hello families! My name is Galen and I’m looking forward to supporting your family’s child and other care needs. I’m a therapist by training and by day with a masters degree in social work, but I’m looking to build community and supplement my income by caring for children on nights and weekends. I have 15+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages as well as tutoring, pet care, cooking, and light housework. I took a few years away from this app to focus on grad school, but I’m excited to get back to childcare. I maintain CPR certification through work and am up-to-date on all vaccines. Looking forward to meeting you!

“Galen was wonderful - my daughter had a great time with her and she was very helpful and accommodating to both of us. Will look for her help again!”

Hello Everyone! 😊I am a bilingual (Chinese and English), energetic, and genuine sitter who loves caring for children! I am here to offer childcare household, and pet services. I am ready to take on any task you hand my way! 🤗 I've previously worked at a summer camp for children aged 6-13. Here a few of responsibilities included: watching children, disinfecting classrooms before and after snack/ lunchtime, and communicating child's concerns with parents. I have also babysat for family members in the past (Toddlers- Elementary school aged). So I have experience changing diapers, working with shy children, playing engaging games, and having a fun time! 😄 I also enjoy playing sports, a few of which include: baseball, softball, golf, and basketball. I am always excited to indulge in a high intensity activity, or a calm night in. I am also highly skilled in cooking, and love creating delicious and unique dishes. If you would like to do an interview prior to hiring, I am also open to that. P.S: I am only available during the summer months (May- Early September).

“Angela was great! Good communicator and thoughtful. Would work with her again!”

Hi! My name is Alex. I grew up in the East Bay and have been living in San Francisco for over 10 years. I’m currently teaching 5th grade at a SFUSD public school. In the past, I have tutored for after school programs for elementary students, fostering great relationships with children and enjoying watching them grow and learn. I frequently babysit for children ages 2-10 years old but have experience with all age groups. I served in the Peace Corps (2[removed]) where I taught Literacy and English Langauge Arts in West Africa (Liberia & Sierra Leone). I also worked as a Special Education Paraeducator at a high school in the SFUSD before transitioning to my current position as a general education/multiple subject elementary teacher. I am currently available for as an occasional date night sitter that can use my experience to create a fun and caring environment for any child or children. I am open to babysitting weekends, weekdays, and special occasions. Thanks for looking at my profile.

Hi, my name is Valentina and I'm offering child care. I love taking care, playing, teaching and spending time with infants and toddlers. I have a certification in early childhood education and I worked in a school where I did didactic and meaningfu activities for them to develop their motor, cognitive, sensory and communicative skills through play such as painting, singing, dancing, reading and imagining stories, tasting and feeling different textures.

“Super professional and responsive. Was flexible at the last minute and clearly had the kids engaged and having fun (without a screen 😁). 2 boys aged 6 and 8 gave rave reviews. ”

"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!"
