Hi There, I have loads of experience caring for children. My personality is very nurturing, fun, understanding and artistic. - 2 AA degrees in Early Childhood Education and Studio Art. I was a preschool teacher at Bright Horizons at UCSF for 6 years. - DONA Post- partum Doula trained since 2008 - raised two children of my own who are now in college. I love giving space for children to be curious, creative and mindful. A few hobbies of mine are water color painting, Ikebana Flower arranging and gardening. I am looking for extra work to be flexible with my school schedule as I am working towards my degree in Art. References upon request. Kindest regards, Claudia
“Claudia is amazing! Our toddler is so shy and scared of new sitters and she made him feel safe instantly. She was lovely, super responsive, caring, and wonderful. We will hire her again and again!”
Hello! My name is Ran. I’m from Japan and moved here two months ago for working as a nanny. I’m offering child care, pet care and some household services. I have worked at daycare for 0 to 5 years old kids in Japan for a year. I really enjoyed playing, singing, dancing, painting, or taking a walk with them. I currently take care of 6 months old baby and take responsibility for playing, feeding, preparing for meals, napping and taking to a park. I also can do some household such as doing laundry, folding them, washing dishes, easy cooking or organizing rooms. Moreover, I am a big dog lover and I have a dog in Japan. I would love to look after your pets if you need.
“Ran was friendly, professional, and thorough for our 11 month old. We would happily hire her again!”
Hi, I’m Leticia, and I’ve been taking care of children for over 7 years. Being around them reminds me that life can be light and fun. One of the things that I love most about being a nanny is seeing the world through their eyes, and also knowing that I’m helping a little person grow and develop brings purpose to my job. I have experience with children from infants to 12 year old, caring for kids of different ages and twins. I like to get to know the child I’ll be caring for so I can plan some activities based on what they like, but I also love spending time outdoors and doing creative activities like arts and crafts, pretend play, music, story time, etc. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a responsible driver, a non smoker, and pet friendly. I value open communication with parents and always try to create a warm, trusting relationship with the families I work with. I would love to talk more to get to know each other better and answer any questions you may have!
Hi Everyone! I’m an experience babysitter and the with passion in fostering children's growth and development. I come from a long line of childhood educators. With 8 years of experience, I've gained the skills necessary to provide a nurturing and educational environment for kids of all ages. I've worked as a swim instructor, working with kids of all ages. I was a Troop Leader for scouts, worked as a tutor and mentor for middle and high school students. I have experience babysitting children of all ages, particularly toddlers. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates about their child's day. My educational background includes a degree from UC Berkeley and coursework of early childhood development. I'm CPR-trained and comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children, as well as engaging in arts and crafts activities. I’m also a former swim instructor, so if your child needs swim lessons I’m more than happy to chat about it :)
“Ani was patient, proactive, and calm even when my 3 year old was having a tough time with the transition. We will definitely hire her again! ”
Hi I’m Layci and I have been an educator for over 10 years and working as an elementary school teacher for the past 8 years teaching 1st-6th grades. I have been a nanny and babysitter for families all around the Bay Area for over 14 years. I have experience with newborns, infants, toddlers and children with special needs. I have helped families as a night nanny and with various medical needs as well. I love animals and have grown up around cats, dogs, geckos, hamsters and bunnies. I also have my own urban outdoor garden and love indoor plants as well. I am reliable, confident, and fun. I am firm but warm and while I set boundaries, I also adhere and defer to family expectations and dynamics. I love working with kids and enjoy being able to create engaging and fun activities. I will engage in imaginative play, arts and crafts, and science experiments. I can cook and help with light clean up. I have references upon request, and happy to provide a cell number if you are interested in talking more. I can’t wait to get to know your family!
“Layci was great! She came well prepared with activities and my daughter had so much fun with 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!"
