Jessica $50 per hour for 1 child

I recently moved to San Francisco from Liverpool, UK, and bring eight years of teaching experience. As a qualified teacher, I have specialized in reading and comprehension, helping children from Kindergarten to Grade 5 develop confidence and skill in literacy. I am passionate about supporting children with additional academic needs and enjoy tailoring lessons to each child’s unique learning style. Beyond formal teaching, I have plenty of hands-on experience with children at home, having spent lots of time looking after young children in informal settings. I am patient, nurturing, and attentive, qualities that make me approachable and trustworthy for both kids and parents. I also love animals and have experience caring for dogs, so I am comfortable helping with pets alongside children if needed. Additionally, I am organized and can assist with small household tasks or homework support, making life a little easier for busy families! I am enthusiastic, reliable, and excited to support children’s learning and wellbeing in San Francisco.

I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced caregiver with decades of experience caring for children of all ages. My background includes work in elementary education and supporting students in school-based settings, which has given me strong skills in communication, emotional support, and creating safe, structured, nurturing environments for kids. I’m kind, energetic, organized, and naturally good at building trust and rapport while maintaining consistency, boundaries, and safety. Families often describe me as calm, reliable, intuitive, and easy to work with. In addition to childcare, I have years of experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs and am happy to help with errands, meal prep, organizing, and light household chores. I have professional experience in events catering and as a pastry chef, along with formal culinary arts training, and I genuinely enjoy cooking and preparing meals for others.

I love helping families feel supported and making busy lives run a little more smoothly however I can.
