Hello, cherished parents and guardians! With a heart full of love and nine years of professional experience, I've been on a delightful journey of caring for children since I was just a child myself, tending to my four nieces and two nephews. Holding a college degree in sociology with a minor in childhood development, I am not only skilled but deeply passionate about understanding and nurturing young minds. My mission is to provide a haven of safety and warmth, where parents can confidently entrust their little ones into my care. Whether you're seeking a well-deserved night out or a moment to tackle life's demands, I am here to ensure your children are not just looked after, but truly cared for. With CPR certification, a clean background check, and complete vaccination, your child's safety is paramount to me.

“Hailey did an amazing job with our three you kids. She fed them, put them to bed and cleaned up afterward. We are very thankful!”

Hi there, My name is Veronika and I have more than twenty years of experience in childcare. As a nanny I cared for children ranging in ages from infancy to preteen. I am comfortable with bottles, starting solids, diapering, naps, developmental milestones, age-appropriate play, outings, meal prep for kiddos, baby laundry, and keeping their spaces tidy. I am a former daycare/preschool teacher and I am looking for a part-time position. I am a nurturing person and I am capable of multitasking and working with children of all ages. I'm hoping to find a family who values open communication, mutual respect, and having their nanny truly become part of their child's little world. I love to explore and discover with children and I believe in hands-on learning. I enjoy arts and crafts, playing games, reading, and being silly. I am a nature enthusiast and I enjoy spending time outside with children. In my free time I love camping, hiking and reading. I am CPR and First Aid Certified and have all current vaccinations. Please feel free to message me if you think we could be a good fit! I'd be happy to chat, share references and discuss availability.

“We first hired Veronika in 2023 to care for our first child (between 11 months and 2 years old), and again for our second child (between 9 months and 15 months old) in 2025. We were so happy to have the opportunity to work with her again. Having someone we trusted so much with both of our children was incredibly reassuring. Veronika is genuinely wonderful with kids. She is kind, gentle, patient, and very attuned to what each child needs. She took the time to get to know their personalities and routines, and our kids clearly felt comfortable, happy, and cared for with her. She read to them, played with them, helped them navigate their moods and needs, and was always present and attentive rather than simply supervising them. One of the things we especially appreciated was how much she enjoyed getting outside with them. She regularly took them to playgrounds, the library, and Golden Gate Park, and found ways to make outings engaging and age-appropriate. She has a real love of nature and exploration, and that came through in the way she spent time with our children. Veronika also helped with kid meals and meal prep, kept their spaces tidy, handled kid-related chores, and was completely comfortable with naps and bedtime. We never had to worry about whether she could get our kids settled and asleep. She was also consistently punctual, dependable, and very receptive to feedback and our family's routines and preferences. Our children absolutely adore her. Even now, they continue to talk about her and look forward to seeing her around the neighborhood. We loved working with Veronika and feel very lucky that she has been part of both of our children's lives. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for someone caring, dependable, experienced, and genuinely invested in their children's well-being and happiness.”

Hi hi! My name is Stephanie - I also respond to Steph. Why I’m here: Hanging out with kiddos reminds me how brand new and incredible the world can feel. Reminding me to embrace creativity, and make time to play while incorporating the needs to rest and listen to our bodies. Having the responsibility of caring for the littles (or not so littles) involves constant and meaningful learning opportunities. Not to mention, while in their company I find myself absorbing new perspectives. Seeing things from such a different angle where the world can still appear brand new and exciting if you can keep your eyes open. It reminds me to look forward to and cherish the small and often overlooked aspects that bring us together. I find that it can be incredibly fun watching them encounter new experiences while being so determined to master bran new skills overtime. It is truly inspiring that when faced with a challenge they can often feel confident enough navigate when they’re called to. Knowing that I am there to support them when the confidence doesn’t feel so strong has come to feel like such an honor. A bit about me; I have just a recently moved back to beautiful San Francisco after spending a short moment in Denver, Colorado. I am so happy to be home and living in the first city with my two dogs diamond in the boxer and Rocky the Malinois. In my free time, I enjoy nothing more than relaxing outside, and soaking up the sun. I do spend a lot of time Working with training my dogs. Mainly Rocky as diamond is 10 years old now and a lot more reserved. Those babes are my entire life and closest companions. I find fascination in how responsive and intelligent they both are. Thank you for taking the time to read and hope to chat soon. Kindly, Steph.

“We had Kelly back a second time so I’m updating my review. She was easy to communicate with, arrived on time, and followed instructions well. She is experienced with kids but also open to feedback which I appreciate. Our baby had some stranger danger, but Kelly stayed calm and worked to sooth him. She read books in Mandarin with my 5-year old and spoke to both kids in Mandarin as we asked. Thank you for your help, Kelly ”
