Tiara $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Tiara and I am an upcoming freshman at the University of San Francisco. I offer child and pet care, as well as household services. I have a lot of family with young children so I have experience in watching infants, toddlers, and kids. I also have two dogs and a hamster of my own! I enjoy taking my dogs out; I have my driver's license, so I am able to drive them to go on beach and park adventures! My responsibilities at home include washing dishes, occasional grocery shopping, keeping my room organized, taking out the trash, making meals for myself, and tending to my dogs' needs.
Sohyung Gabriella $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA
Hi! My name is Sohyung, and I’m an international medical graduate currently living in San Francisco. I moved here with my husband and am currently studying for my U.S. medical board exams while looking for a meaningful part-time position. I was born in Korea, grew up in Canada, and have lived in several countries including Hungary, where I completed medical school. Growing up with a younger sister who was born when I was 13, I naturally took on a caregiving role from a young age. I’ve also worked part-time as an English teacher for children during university, which strengthened my love for working with kids. I am calm, responsible, and attentive, with a strong understanding of child development and safety due to my medical training. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through creative play, reading, and educational activities. I would love to support your family in a reliable and caring way. Looking forward to connecting with you!
