✨ Hi families! 🤱🏻I’m Maria, and I’m a loving, responsible, attentive nanny with years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants to toddlers — since I was 16. 📍I’m currently based in San Francisco and actively looking for a ✨full-time nanny position✨ where I can offer my full dedication, warmth, and energy. 🌱 I provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment filled with creativity, play-based learning, and lots of affection. 🎨 I love singing, storytelling, and playing in both English and Spanish, helping little ones grow through fun and meaningful activities.📚 🩺I am certified in Baby First Aid/CPR/AED and have completed Advanced Child Care Training with the American Red Cross. 🧚🏻‍♀️I’m punctual, kind, and deeply respectful of each family’s values, routines, and parenting styles. I would be honored to become a supportive and trustworthy part of your child’s day-to-day life. Let’s connect — I’d love to meet you and your little ones!

“Maria was absolutely wonderful with our 16-month-old! She arrived right on time, bonded with our daughter instantly, and made her feel comfortable and happy. She was super helpful, and her warm personality shines through in everything she does. We felt completely at ease knowing our little one was in such great hands. Highly recommend!”

Hello families! I am active, energetic and compassionate when it comes to working with your kids. I like to focus on human development with the help of nature and staying away from screens. Feel free to learn more about the way I operate

“Natasa was wonderful with my kids, two dogs, and 2 cats! She was with our family for 3 years- until the kids started school. We loved having her high energy and great attitude sing through the halls of our home. She's caring, understanding and creative- your kids will be lucky to have her.”

Nicole 3 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a teacher taking time off this year to pursue some personal projects! I’m looking for a bit of flexibility in my schedule, but quite available for last minute needs. I taught PK and 6th grade ELA in the Bay Area for the past 6 years, worked abroad for the 3 before that, and coached swim and nannied through college. I love sports, the outdoors, and the arts. I’m most passionate about building confidence and independence in the kids I work with. And I’ll always encourage curiosity and play.

“Nicole is great! She worked in education and is great with my young kids--plays games, does art, reads and is a pro at bedtime. Nicole is kind, patient, reliable and great with kids.”

Booked by 5 families in Brisbane, CA

Hello families! I’ve been a nanny for six years, I have experience in childcare since I was 18 years old, in my home country and here. I worked with many families in the area and I volunteer with school support in the past, I had 4 dogs and 2 cats myself so I love pets and if you have pets that is great, we will get along too. I’m currently working full time with a family and we have been together almost three years on this journey and they will be happy to share a recommendation for you. My goal is for your kids to have a nice time together as we play and learn safely and for you to trust they’re in good hands, I would love the parents to communicate any particular details, needs, even if it is small, a house rule, about the kids, if it’s important for you I’ll do my best. 🤍 excited to meet you!

“Luz was great, would recommend her!”
