Hi families! I love being a nanny and babysitter because caring for children is truly rewarding. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where little ones feel happy, secure, and encouraged to learn and grow. Building trusting relationships with both children and parents is one of the most meaningful parts of my work. I have over 8 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers in private homes in Greenwich, CT, and now in San Francisco. My experience includes feeding, diapering, soothing, maintaining sleep routines, preparing healthy meals, reading, engaging in age-appropriate play, and supporting children's development. I have also cared for an infant and a toddler at the same time. I am patient, dependable, organized, and attentive to each child's unique needs. I am certified in American Red Cross Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED, have current health and vaccination records, and have completed California's TrustLine background check. I am legally authorized to work in the U.S., have a clean driving record, and hold TSA PreCheck and Global Entry. I value open communication with parents and always strive to provide loving, dependable care that gives families peace of mind.
Hi - My name is Maca, and I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. I’ve cared for my nieces and nephews when they were little and have also babysat for friends. My responsibilities have included engaging in crafts, playing games, and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. I also enjoy taking care of pets and have experience looking after friends' dogs and cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or providing companionship, I’m happy to lend a hand. Additionally, I can assist with household tasks like light cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to help! (:
“Macarena did a great job. She was diligent and thorough. She cleaned up after a long day with three kids making a mess of our house. We hope she can come over again soon.”
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.
Hi! My name is Kate and I’m 23 born and raised in San Francisco. Currently I’m taking a gap year before continuing to law school next fall and would really like to continue working with kids till than. As a caregiver I really enjoy getting to know who the child really is so that I can meet at their level to be as helpful as possible. I love to have fun and explore with the kids I work with, even if it means jumping in muddy puddles outside. I am incredibly organized, on top of schedules/assignments, and am more than happy to help with a bit of housework. My schedule is very flexible so if there is a spontaneous date night or Sunday playdate, I am happy to jump in to help ease your world. I am CPR and First Aid certified and am fully up to date on all vaccinations/health needs. I am happy to provide documentation for any of that if you would like to see it. I also have a car that I can use to get to and from work, however, I would not be able to use it to transport kids. Prior to this past summer I don’t have much formal childcare experience, however I’ve been babysitting on and off since I was in high school. Over the summer I was a camp counselor for 3-6 year olds at the Greensboro Country Club and I also worked in their drop in daycare center which took kids 6 weeks-10 years. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your family more, so feel free to reach out!
“Kate communicated well, on time, and took great care of our 3 year old in Noe Valley. we would recommend Kate and definitely look forward to her help in the future! thank you!”
