Hi! My name is Lola, and I love working with kids of all ages. I have over 5 years of experience babysitting and as a substitute preschool teacher caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’m responsible, patient, and energetic, and I always make sure the children I watch are safe, happy, and engaged. I enjoy spending time outside, doing arts and crafts, and having dance parties! I am also happy to help out with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I love dogs and cats, and I’m also an EMT and CPR certified. I’d love the chance to support your family and provide a safe and fun environment for your kids! Best, Lola

I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced caregiver with decades of experience caring for children of all ages. My background includes work in elementary education and supporting students in school-based settings, which has given me strong skills in communication, emotional support, and creating safe, structured, nurturing environments for kids. I’m kind, energetic, organized, and naturally good at building trust and rapport while maintaining consistency, boundaries, and safety. Families often describe me as calm, reliable, intuitive, and easy to work with. In addition to childcare, I have years of experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs and am happy to help with errands, meal prep, organizing, and light household chores. I have professional experience in events catering and as a pastry chef, along with formal culinary arts training, and I genuinely enjoy cooking and preparing meals for others. I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology, which supports my thoughtful, patient, and attentive approach to caregiving. I love helping families feel supported and making busy lives run a little more smoothly however I can.

I have experience taking care of pets, sick, healthy, you name it. I’ve fostered and worked at animal shelters so you can trust that your pet will be well taken care of.

Hi! My name is Ingrid and I have experience working with children of different ages. I have worked as a babysitter, in schools, and with child development. I also have experience with household tasks like organizing, laundry, light cleaning, and meal preparation. I would love to help your family!

Hi! I'm Riley, I'm 23, and living in the Nob Hill/Polk Gulch area. I graduated from the University of Denver with a BSBA in marketing last June, but grew up in the East Bay, and have been living in San Francisco for almost three months. Throughout high school, I frequently babysat for a family with three kids (aged 2-12) and a dog, along with a family with two kids (aged 4-7) and cats. I also worked at a summer camp, responsible for around ten 2-6 year-olds at a time for several hours a day. I'm comfortable cooking, cleaning, helping kids with tasks like dressing, and of course, playing! I can help with homework, assuming it's nothing too advanced. I also have a kitten of my own. I would love to meet you and your family and babysit whenever possible. I'm enthusiastic and outgoing, and love spending time with kids! I love to make friendship bracelets, paint, cook, bake, color, and lots of other activities that we could have fun doing together. I'm also happy to take kids out to the park, for a snack, and other outings. I don't have a car, but I'm comfortable doing errands I can walk to. Also happy to help with laundry and other household tasks whenever the kids are busy playing and within eyeshot.
