Hi! I’m Frankie, I’m a senior at Urban School of San Francisco. I offer cleaning services, pet care, and especially childcare. I’ve babysat for twelve local families as well as my cousin’s since they were newborns. I have experience with kids as young as newborns to as old as preteens, but i specialize in infants to ~five years old. I care for both individual children as well as twins, and multiple children. I believe that children should nurture their imagination and creativity. I try to keep kids off of screens as much as possible through playing outside reading, playing with toys, etc. When I have down time, I will tidy up the house as well. I also have my license and am happy to travel or help with any sort of drop off, pick up, or general errands.
Hello, cherished parents and guardians! With a heart full of love and nine years of professional experience, I've been on a delightful journey of caring for children since I was just a child myself, tending to my four nieces and two nephews. Holding a college degree in sociology with a minor in childhood development, I am not only skilled but deeply passionate about understanding and nurturing young minds. My mission is to provide a haven of safety and warmth, where parents can confidently entrust their little ones into my care. Whether you're seeking a well-deserved night out or a moment to tackle life's demands, I am here to ensure your children are not just looked after, but truly cared for. With CPR certification, a clean background check, and complete vaccination, your child's safety is paramount to me.

I have about 7 years of babysitting/nannying experience, I’ve worked with children from 2 months-13 years old. Caretaking and teaching is something I truly love doing.

“Maryanne is great! She arrived early and immediately jumped into play with my preschooler. He usually freaks out when we leave, but he was having so much fun with Maryanne already that he didn’t even want to pause to say goodbye 😂 ”

"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!"
