☀️🌉☀️🌉☀️🌉☀️🌉☀️🌉☀️ Hello, I live in San Francisco and I have been working as a Full Time professional nanny in the Bay Area for over 15 years, working with children starting at 1 month old -- to preschool -- to older children. Caring for multiple children is my specialty and I have a lot of newborn experience, families tell me I am great with infants/babies/toddlers and have a lot of patience and energy for these age groups as well as all the others. I absolutely love my job! 💛 Note: if I apply for your babysitting job, I accept the hourly rate that you set! Working with children keeps me young at heart and I have so much fun doing it. I am a confident person, very organized and love structure but also very relaxed/flexible and people say I have a very calming presence. Basically I will go with whatever flow you have going on in your home and follow your lead and preferences. I have always gravitated towards caring for children. After college (UC Santa Cruz, BA Psychology) I worked as a Literacy Tutor for first graders in East Oakland, and even after some time working in office jobs life lead me back to children. I started working for a Family Day Care center and there I learned valuable knowledge about caring for multiple infants and toddlers at a time. Up to 10-12 kids! It was a natural progression towards nanny work. I love to read to children, play games, creative play, running outside, playing sports, being silly/laughing, etc. My mom was an elementary school teacher and people tell me I am like a teacher. I must take after her :) I am great with infants and toddlers, I recognize non-verbal cues very clearly and think ahead. I take instruction well and I also can do well without any instruction because I have so many years experience and I am a no-nonsense type of personality. I have a genuine interest in every child's well being. Your children will be well taken care of, safe and happy in my care. ❤️ I am CPR/First Aid certified. I can travel throughout the Bay Area, I have a very reliable car, a 2016 VW Tiguan.

“Super professional, affable, and amazing with our kid. Even our cats (who can be skittish and avoid strangers) came out to greet and stay by her.”

Hi! My name is Eileen and I am so excited to work with you and your family! I have worked with children in a variety of roles from being a camp counselor, camp director, preschool teacher, and an elementary school teacher. Depending upon what you are looking for in a nanny, I can provide support in many areas. I look forward to working with your children and creating magical memories! Please note that my fiancé is immune compromised, and as such, I am unable to sit for any children who are sick. I have to be super careful since any illness could lead to time in the hospital for him. Thank you for your consideration!

“Eileen was aaaaaaaamazing! I gave little instruction and she knew exactly what needed to be done. Enthusiastic, helpful, lively. Would definitely hire again and again. Thank you so much, Eileen!!”

Hi! I'm Perla, I currently work at a K-8th charter school for the Special Education department as well as for the education department of a nonprofit where I work with children ranging from kindergarten to 6th grade. I have been babysitting since for 8 years for different families around the city of San Francisco. I can help with anything ranging from feeding to sleep time to homework. I am a very patient tutor when it comes to homework help. I love taking the kids outside to play in the fresh air, but reading and doing arts and crafts inside is just as fun. I am a highly dependable and adaptable Babysitter with a lot of patience and a love for kids (as well as furry friends). I have a lot of experience with different social and emotional behaviors. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. Flexible scheduling availability. In my free time I love to watch movies, hang out with friends, eat new delicious foods, traveling, and reading books.

Hi — I’m Katriel (Kat), a caregiver based in San Francisco. I hold a BA in Psychology with an emphasis on child development and currently serve as a director at a nonprofit. I am available for regular afternoon, evening, and/or night babysitting and bring over 10 years of experience working with children ages 0–15. My background includes many years as a behavior specialist and family support specialist in the school district, three years of intensive early intervention therapy, and extensive experience supporting children with developmental differences (speech delays, ADD/ADHD, ASD). I am trained in ABA methods, play therapy, ESDM intervention, DIR Floortime, and occupational therapy strategies. I also offer early intervention services and parent coaching for families who feel they would benefit from additional support. In addition to providing consistent, dependable childcare, I take pride in offering individualized care tailored to each family’s unique needs. I am happy to assist with homework support, structured routines, engaging developmental activities, light household tasks, and overall household support. My goal is to create a nurturing, safe, and enriching environment while also helping make daily life easier for families. I am bilingual (English/Spanish), adaptable, versatile, and reliable. I have a reliable car, a California driver’s license, and a clean driving record. I am also a huge animal lover and very comfortable around pets, and I’m happy to help with pet care as needed. Rates reflect the level of care and specialized support provided, and may vary based on each family’s needs. My priority is that you feel confident and at ease when your child is in my care. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to request references—I would love the opportunity to support your family.

“Kat watched my 11 month old son while I took care of my baby girl. She was wonderful! Played turn based games and sang to him. Helped with feeding his lunch and cleaning up. Proactive and easy to work with. Would love to work with her again! ”

I’m a 22-year-old female nursing student with a strong background in caregiving and child support. I’m CPR certified and have several years of hands-on experience babysitting my younger siblings and cousins, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and nurturing. I’ve also tutored children in the past and taken education-related classes toward a minor, which helped me understand how to engage kids in fun and age-appropriate ways, even though I don’t have official certification for it. I have my own car and a valid driver’s license, which makes me reliable and flexible with transportation needs. I’m responsible, empathetic, and genuinely enjoy caring for others — whether that’s kids, seniors, or helping out around the house. I bring a calm, warm energy to any home I work in, and I’m committed to creating a safe and positive environment for everyone I care for.
