Booked by 5 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Toyosi. I was born and raised in Chicago and moved to San Francisco last year for medical school. I graduated from Princeton University in 2021, and I currently attend UCSF School of Medicine. I have always loved working with children, and I have been babysitting since high school. I am also interested in pursuing pediatrics after medical school. Outside of school (and babysitting), I enjoy reading, watching and playing soccer, practicing yoga, and taking long walks along the beautiful streets of San Francisco. All in all, I am a very genuine, kind, and thoughtful individual, and I always strive to provide my very best in my work and care for others. I hope to work with you soon!

“Toyosi is a delight! Reliable and my boys loved her. ”

Hey I'm Mallory 👋 I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old (that seems wild in this day and age) and I am an aunt to 3 kids ages 1, 3 & 7 with one on the way. I love children and have experience with all ages. I was a nanny throughout college and babysat for date nights and other events throughout my career. I have a 15 year career as a head of sales in the consumer good space and am on a career break. Some things I love - cooking (will cook with your kids!), nature, going on walks, all the pets, trying new things, dancing, hiking and all water activities.

“Mallory was great with our 19 month old. She got right down on his level and read him a book while we left the house - no tears! He ate second helpings of dinner and was asleep when we got home. Great experience, would love to have Mallory back.”

I’m Gabi and am currently an Associate Teacher for a 2nd grade class. Previously, I worked younger grades as well. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Additionally, I have experience babysitting kids as young as infants and toddlers to older children. I would love to connect with families. I understand that trust is a major factor and key role so I take my position very seriously. I love having silly and goofy moments with kids playing but also love to instill in them responsibility and good decision making. I would love to connect with you and can provide a reference if needed. I have always had a love for helping children from a young age. As a teacher, I have loved getting to know my students and creating bonds with them. I'm looking forward to connecting with families in which I can add my bright energy, eagerness to learn, compassion, and empathy.

I am a nanny and sitter who have been taking care of newborns(including a premature baby) babies, toddlers and young children, in San Francisco bay area for more than 15 years. Before being a nanny I was an au-pair in Europe helping with young children and pre-teen. I love children and I love what I do. I can provide plenty of references from families I have worked in the past. I am reliable, loving, caring, creative, respectful, energetic, fun and very patient. I like to make sure children under my care grow in a safe and loving environment, providing age appropiate activities to contribute to a healthy development. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have all my inmunizations up to date, including the last bivalent COVID booster. I speak English and Spanish. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

I am the oldest daughter of 4 children and have enjoyed the experience of having significantly younger siblings. Being around them has ensured my love of kids and babysitting from an early age. I’ve babysat since I was 16 years old and have enjoyed the energy and curiosity that kids always seem to have. Their excitement is absolutely contagious and makes it hard not to be happy when you’re around them. My favorite thing to do when babysitting is cook with the kids, do a fun creative project like making a magazine collage to show their parents, and reading all their favorite books. All before bedtime! I have a corporate job that occupies my 9am-5pm during the week, but have ample time in the evenings and weekends to explore the city and neighborhoods and see them through the curious mind of a child! I am respectful of the differences in how every person decides to parent their children and have no issue following their rules. Your child’s safety and well-being is my number one priority!
