Hi, I’m Shelby! I have a bachelor’s degree in Music Education and three years of experience teaching in public elementary schools. I have been babysitting for 15+ years and also have two and a half years of experience as a full-time nanny. I have worked with infants, toddlers, and school-age children. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and activities, tutoring, preparing meals, pet care, help with household chores, running errands, overnight care, and planning age-appropriate outings and activities. As a public school teacher, I worked with students with varying abilities and needs. I taught in both breakout special needs classes and integrated classrooms. I’ve also nannied for a child with autism. I’m a lover of all outdoor activities and enjoy active supervision and getting involved in play rather than just sitting and watching the kids. I also enjoy puzzles, arts and crafts, board games, music, books - anything that sparks a bit of creativity.
Hi - My name is Vivian. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids in my college years. ( I worked as teacher role of Montessori school.) I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I am happy to work with families with dogs and cats.
Hi! My name is Lily and I recently graduated from UC Berkeley with a B.A. in Molecular and Cell Biology. I am looking for part time work while I finish up a few prerequisite classes this year. I babysat for several families consistently throughout high school, so I feel confident caring for children all ages. I was also a youth gymnastics coach for three years at UC Berkeley, so have experience creating a fun and positive environment while also prioritizing safety. I became EMT and BLS certified in 2022, so I am also able to respond to any health emergencies. Aside from childcare experience, I grew up with pets and have also house-sat for family and friends on many occasions, so am happy to help out with any of these tasks as well!
Hi there my name is Courtney! I just moved from Seattle to San Francisco and looking for work as a caregiver. I’ve been working in childcare for over ten years, and have my degree in early childhood education. I’m also a certified newborn care specialist and post partum doula! I’ve done nannying, babysitting, and teaching for so many families and have made life long connections with them!
Hi! I’m Rebecca, a mom to a 10-year-old boy with experience caring for babies, toddlers, and school-age children. I’m reliable, patient, and a safe driver with a clean driving record and a clean, comfortable car. I can help with school pick-ups/drop-offs, after-school care, homework, reading, simple meals, and light housekeeping. I speak Mandarin and English and can also help children learn and practice Mandarin. I’m looking for part-time, occasional, or after-school childcare opportunities. Please feel free to reach out!

"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."
