"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Sophia $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I love caring of kids, and have a knack for keeping them entertained. As a teen I took care of my younger brother, so I’m familiar with taking responsibility for kids of all ages. Although I work full time, I am able to support you and your family in the evenings and over the weekend as needed. I can also play piano with and speak Russian with your children if that’d be of interest.
Madison $26 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I’m Olli and I’m looking to add some babysitting onto my plate! I am currently a preschool teacher in the 2’s classroom. I have experience as a teacher with 4 and 5 year olds as well. I have a car and can drive. I have my bachelors in psychology and am currently taking early childhood education classes. I love being around kids and helping them navigate the world. Familiar with diapers and potty training! :)
Cassidy $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello! I'm Cassidy and I'm a junior at SFSU. I am offering child care and household services. I started babysitting a bit more than a year now, but have worked with children since I was 16 (volunteering at an elementary after-school program). I love being creative with children, so I do crafts, draw, build, and make up games with kids when I babysit them. I also have experience helping kids with homework and am happy to provide extra academic support! I can drive to the kids' appointments or anywhere needed, cook, and clean. I am allergic to cats.
Samana $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi there- my name is Samana. I am currently living in the Marina and am open to evening / weekend babysitting opportunities. I grew up in the South Bay, have two younger siblings and lots of experience with children. In the past, have lived with families to help with kid duties & was a former camp counselor - love board games, puzzles, friendship bracelets, drawing etc. and am happy to help with infant care. I am a swimmer and am comfortable with pool safety. My full-time job is in the medical device space - looking forward to connecting soon!
Alexandra $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA
Hello - My name is Alex. I am offering childcare, household and pet sitting services. I love being a babysitter and enjoy working with children. I have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids 3+ since I was 16 years old. My most recent experience includes working at an infant daycare with children ages 0-2 here in San Francisco. I enjoy creating activities for the children that combines hands on activities with play-based learning. I also enjoy taking the children outdoors - whether that includes parks, museums or the local library for story time. I love animals so I am very comfortable working with families with any pets.
