Hi! My name is Alondra, and I am currently a senior at the University of San Francisco majoring in Nursing. My goal is to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and supporting their growth and well-being. I offer reliable, compassionate childcare whenever my school schedule allows. I am CPR certified and a registered caregiver through the state, with experience caring for both children and my own grandparents. My healthcare background has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to remain calm in different situations, giving parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, so I am happy to communicate with bilingual families or help children practice Spanish. I’ve also been dancing since I was 3 years old and love incorporating fun, creative activities like dancing, crafts, reading, outdoor play, and games into my time with kids. I love dogs, so I’m more than comfortable caring for pets as well! My goal is to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their children, and I strive to be dependable, attentive, and communicative every step of the way. I look forward to meeting your family!
“Alondra came to sit for our two kids this weekend and she was wonderful! She arrived a few minutes early. She listened closely to my instructions and asked questions. All my instructions were followed and my kids said they had a great time with her. She also cleaned up after the kids which was so appreciated! We would love to have Alondra back to sit again!”

Hi, I’m Summer! I’m a preschool teacher and artist who absolutely loves working with kids. I’ve been caring for little ones since I was 15, from tiny babies to big kids, and I’m CPR, First Aid, and TrustLine certified. When I’m not in the classroom, I bring the fun to birthday parties as a face painter and balloon artist — so you can count on me to keep kids entertained with creativity, play, and lots of laughs. I love painting, singing, dancing, and exploring nature, and I enjoy sharing that joy with the children I care for.

Hi families! My name is Amber, and I’m a nurturing and energetic caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and healthcare. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of San Francisco, where I’m deepening my knowledge of child development, safety, and wellness—skills I bring into every babysitting experience. With over 6 years of experience in customer-facing roles and a background supervising children ages 5 months to 6 years old at The Bar Method, I’ve developed the ability to stay calm under pressure, adapt quickly, and create fun, engaging, and safe environments for kids of all ages. What sets me apart: CPR/First Aid knowledge through my nursing education (and working toward official certification) Experience with Autism, ADHD, and Dementia A warm, friendly, and creative personality Experience tutoring peers, which translates into helping with homework or schoolwork at home A reliable, organized, and equity-driven mindset: I value every child’s uniqueness and treat them with respect and kindness. Whether you’re looking for a dependable sitter for your child, a responsible helper for school-age children, or someone to step in last-minute with patience and care, I’d love to support your family’s needs when I’m not busy with school. Additionally, I offer household cleaning and pet services! Because of my school schedule, I’m looking for occasional care! Looking forward to connecting!
