Hi my name is Krystal and I have been babysitting since I was about 12 or 13 and love it! I babysit children of all ages and enjoy playing outside games or even staying inside to play. In my spare time I enjoy watching and playing sports, baking, and volunteering! I have volunteered at soup kitchens, marathons, and the Ronald McDonald House!

Booked by 13 families in Brisbane, CA

My name is Lilian but everyone calls me Lily. I’m from Mexico City. I was an au pair for two years and been working as a nanny for more than four years now. I have over 1000 hours of experience with kids from 4 months old to 13 years old. I’m responsible, open minded, outgoing and flexible. I love to do any kind of activities, outdoors and indoors! Being an au pair during the pandemic gave me a lot of personal and professional resources to make the children have a good time and learn. I have a BA in Developmental Psychology, an MA in Sociology and currently doing a PhD in Education. I’m bilingual, so I can help with Spanish/English homework or assignments or just to practice both languages. The most important thing for me will always be the security of your kids so I'll make sure that they are safe in every place we are. That being said, I’m fully vaccinated, boostered and COVID cautious. I don’t have a car but I do have driver’s license and clean record, so driving in parents car won’t be a problem. And my main means of transportation is my e-bike that takes me everywhere! I have excellent references from all the families I have worked with if they are needed!

“Lily is wonderful! She helped our family out both as a babysitter and mother's helper and I could not recommend her more. She was punctual, reliable and really caring and nurturing with my daughter. We can't wait to work with Lily again.”

Hi, I’m Angelica! I’m a recent college graduate of Saint Mary’s and a longtime caregiver based in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset. I’ve worked with children ages 1-16 as a babysitter, tutor, youth summer camp leader, and older sister, and I genuinely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. Parents describe me as reliable, patient, energetic, and easy to communicate with. Whether we’re working on homework, doing arts and crafts, baking, playing sports, or simply spending quality time together, I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where children feel comfortable and supported. One of my favorite parts of childcare is getting kids out and about and creating fun experiences together. I love exploring San Francisco and am happy to take children on age-appropriate outings to places like the Academy of Sciences, the San Francisco Zoo, local parks, playgrounds, beaches, libraries, museums, and other community activities. I enjoy helping kids stay active, curious, and engaged while making lasting memories. A few things families appreciate about me: ✓ CPR certified for infants, children, and adults ✓ Clean driving record with experience transporting children to school, camps, sports, playdates, and activities ✓ Experience caring for children ages 1-16 ✓ Comfortable helping with homework and educational activities ✓ Happy to assist with light household tasks, errands, meal prep, and pet care ✓ Fully vaccinated I understand that every family has different needs, and I’m happy to adapt my approach to best support your household. Whether you need a dependable sitter for date nights, after-school pickups, weekend activities, occasional babysitting, or part-time care, I’d love to help. I’m happy to provide references upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Booked by 139 families in Brisbane, CA

I have 10+ years of babysitting experience, including caring for the same family for 8 years—from when the child was a newborn through age 8. That experience taught me how to handle everything from infant care to school routines with patience and consistency. I’m reliable, easygoing, and love spending time with kids—whether that’s playing, helping with homework, or keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m also big on clear communication with parents and making sure everyone feels comfortable.
