Jake $30 per hour for 1 child

I currently work at a children’s theater as a teacher, camp lead and performer where I take pride in my ability to keep kiddos safe, happy and entertained. I also have experience playing with my three nieces (2, 6 and 8) as well as a short stint as a nanny for a 12 month old boy back in 2021.

Juanen $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Juanen! My wife and I moved to San Francisco two years ago from Barcelona, Spain, and we absolutely love the energy and vibrant culture of this city. I hold a background in Industrial Engineering and Graphic Design, but teaching and working with young people has always been one of my greatest passions. Back in Barcelona, I spent over 9 years as a middle and high school teacher (working with students ages 12 to 18). My main goal as an educator has always been to empower each student, encouraging them to discover and build on their unique strengths and capabilities. In addition to teaching, I was a competitive track and field athlete. I used that expertise to coach younger kids (ages 6 to 12) in both track and soccer, teaching them teamwork, active living, and healthy habits in a fun, positive environment. I am also passionate about cooking—it’s one of my favorite ways to share a bit of Spanish culture and enjoy a meaningful cultural exchange! Whether your family needs homework help, engaging sports/activities, or reliable and caring support, I’m here to help create a positive, safe, and motivating environment for your children. Feel free to reach out—I'd love to connect!

Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and patient caregiver who enjoys spending time with children and helping families feel supported. I have experience caring for kids of different ages and I always focus on creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I’m reliable, organized, and comfortable helping with routines, meals, playtime, bedtime, and light household tasks. I’m also flexible with occasional babysitting and part-time care, and I always try to make children feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“Jhenifer was great with our little girls. They absolutely loved her. She watched them for a full night after a long day and helped with dinner and bed time.”

Hashi $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Hashi! I am a recent UCLA graduate currently working in youth development in San Francisco. I am looking for part time babysitting jobs. I love babysitting and working with children of all ages. I have worked as an academic counselor for high school students, have worked with kids ages 4-12 as a swim instructor and have also baby sat children of all ages throughout my high school years. I am able to drive children anywhere needed, work on arts and crafts (I have lots of beads and love working with children on making jewelry), and able to tutor in all subjects up to high school level. I can also cook, clean, run errands, and other household help needed. Happy to feed pets or walk dogs as well. Also hope to pet or house sit.
