Hannah 2 reviews
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Hannah! I've been babysitting for 12 years and adore children. I spent a year and a half as the daycare manager at Fun Fit Kids, where I was responsible for up to eight children at a time. I planned fun activities to keep everyone busy and happy, and I made sure homework and other responsibilities got done first. I also spent four months running the kids' area at Beets Barre and Cycle, with the same mix of play, structure and supervision. Watching that many kids at once taught me to stay patient and calm under pressure, whether it's a spilled snack, a meltdown or a sibling squabble. I'm kind, responsible and very organized, and I truly love people, kids especially. I love to cook, so I'm happy to make dinner or help little ones whip up a simple snack. I also like cleaning, so I'll always leave your home as tidy as I found it, or tidier. I'm great with pets too, so your furry family members are in good hands. During the week I work full-time as an analyst, so I'm available evenings and weekends. You can count on me to be reliable and on time, and your kids can count on a fun, caring sitter who gets homework done before game time!

“I cannot recommend Hannah enough, my little one still asks for her all the time! She was absolutely amazing with my daughter, and I always felt so comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. She was caring, patient, attentive, and truly wonderful with her. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about my daughter, and that meant the world to me as a mom. Finding someone you can trust with your child is so important, and she made that experience easy. She always came up with unique ideas for play and had the coolest imagination. Any family would be lucky to have Hannah as their nanny, and I would recommend her without hesitation!”

Booked by 6 families in Sausalito, CA

As the second oldest of seven children, I have spent most of my life caring for kids. From ages 17 to 19, I was the sole caregiver for my two youngest siblings, then ages 0 to 4, due to an illness in the family. I started babysitting at a young age and quickly built a reputation for being especially good with young children. I went on to work in K-12 summer camps for four summers, then spent two years as a program leader in a K-8 public school afterschool program. During my thirteen years as a flight attendant, I completed annual first aid training, including infant and child CPR and Heimlich maneuver certification. I live in Cole Valley with my small, perfect dog Lola and my partner, who works at a tech start up. I'm reliable, responsible, and very flexible with scheduling. I hold an undergraduate degree in Global Studies and am currently transitioning into education and social impact work. I stay active in the community through food insecurity and youth literacy volunteer programs, as an avid reader, I love to spread my love of books to the next generation! I am a deeply curious and empathic person who believes in meeting someone where they are at and always listening first. I have pets my entire adult life and am also happy to pet sit or take your furry friend for a walk.

“Kayla arrived right on time, was very calm and natural with my kids, and communicated well. Would love to have Kayla again!”

Booked by 3 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi! My name is Melissa and I’m a full-time healthcare professional working in San Francisco. I offer evening and weekend babysitting for families who need reliable care for date nights or occasional help. I have several years of babysitting experience and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with dinner, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines, and I always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment while parents are away. Families describe me as responsible, patient, and dependable. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children with someone they trust, and I always strive to make evenings smooth and stress-free for everyone. I’m based in Mission Bay and happy to help families in nearby neighborhoods such as Dogpatch, Potrero Hill, SoMa, and surrounding areas. I’m also comfortable with pets and light tidying after activities. Looking forward to helping families enjoy a worry-free night out!

“She is simply the best! My toddler daughter loved every second she spent with Melissa!”

"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!"
