Hello there! My name is Samantha and live in the 94112 area. I’m fluent in Spanish, French, and English. I know elementary-level Italian and ASL. I’m a first year at Santa Clara University, and I studied abroad in France 2 years ago and lived with a host family. That was an incredible experience! I’m excited to offer childcare and house sitting services. As a caregiver, my main roles include: - language conversations/lessons (Spanish, French, English) - help with light household chores (like organizing, cleaning up play areas) - Making arts & crafts with your child(ren) - Playing games/board games with them - preparing meals or snacks - assisting with homework/tutoring - supervising outdoor play ~and anything else requested!~ I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 years old and love spending time with kids. For the past four years, I’ve worked as an assistant teacher for a summer program in SF, teaching 7th and 9th grade STEM classes. When I’m not taking care of others, I enjoy baking, arts & crafts making, playing board games and card games, watching movies, playing soccer, ceramics, traveling, and exploring the city. I hope you’re interested in what I have to offer! Let me know if you have any questions.
I started by helping my mom with my siblings; Which just ignited the joy I have with working with children. I'm very patient, and I'm able to provide help where it's needed. I'm starting my first semester at ccsf for ECE, as my focus is to get a job working with children. I'm great at cooking and following diet restrictions. Food safety is my number one priority when it comes to this. I'm able to multitask and take care of anything I may need with a good amount of precision. I genuinely love working with kids, and I hope to have some of my own someday. I have about 10-12 years of experience working with children; my experience primarily comes from helping raise my siblings into the preteens they are now. I grew up cleaning and cooking, so I'm well-equipped when it comes to these.
Hello, My name is Eray and I’m 18 years old, currently a college student. I enjoy helping families with simple and reliable support such as keeping an eye on children, picking them up or dropping them off, and making sure they are safe and cared for. I am responsible, patient, and easy to work with. Families can count on me to be punctual, dependable, and attentive. Whether it’s supervising, providing safe rides, or just being there as support, I’m happy to help make daily routines easier. I am also comfortable with pets (except cats, due to allergies)
I am a retired modern jazz dancer and graduated from San Francisco State in 1980 with a degree in Dance/Theatre. I am still interested in the performing arts. I love music of many kinds and love to see the progress of young musicians.. I will be starting to volunteer as a reading tutor for elementary schools in San Francisco sometime in February 2026. I love reading to children and watching them play with their toys or work on their hobbies, I can help with meals and snacks and light clean up. Sincerely, Linda C
**Not available from Jan 17- Feb 7, 2026** Please make sure to read before booking: Hello, My name is Maria and I'm 70 years old. Yes, I understand than that's older than most nannies on here but I'm still very active and I love kids. I've been babysitting since I was young, being that I'm the oldest of seven siblings. Most of them see me as a mother figure now. I have my own kids, or should I say adults now, who are 34 and 32 years old. So I pretty much know how to raise children. I have nannied for couple families (ages ranging from 4-14), my longest being seven years with the same family. I pretty much became part of their family. I would cook, clean, watch the dog, drive her to activities, drop her off and pick her up from school, etc. I've also nannied triplets, so I'm pretty comfortable with that too. I have a great driving record and a safe, reliable Prius C. * Because I am older now, I prefer jobs that do not include driving children* Although my english isn't that great, please have patience with me, I understand it perfectly. I'm also fluent in Spanish. The past couple years, I've been a caregiver for an older couple but I have decided I want to go back to nanning. I like having an impact on kids when they're young. I'm looking for occasional jobs right now. I look forward to meeting you and your child/children.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
