Hi! My name is Emma. I've been working professionally as a nanny for over 10 years and recently graduated from California Institute of Integral Studies with a masters in the somatic therapy. I have met so many amazing families here in SF. Bonding with them has been so special to be a part of. I have experience with working primarily with babies and toddlers, and addition experience with separation anxiety, feeding difficulty, night nannying/overnights, siblings, and share-care. I resonate most with gentle and positive parenting. I have a lot of patience, providing a safe and encouraging environment to support little ones (and new parents) through consistency, connection, and play.
Hello, I am seeking a part-time nanny position with over 10years of experience caring for newborns and school-aged children. My expertise includes engaging their age-appropriate activities such as playing games, reading books, crafting, and exploring outdoors while ensuring their safety well being. I have successfully completed child development courses during my college tenure, which has equipped me with valuable knowledge on supporting young minds to grow holistically through playful learning experiences tailored to each individual's needs & preferences. Aside from that, my CPR/AED certification protects against unforeseen circumstances under my supervision. In addition, I am a highly punctual, hardworking, trustworthy caregiver who takes pride in putting extra effort into maintaining cleanliness and an organized environment, including tidying up after little ones finish enjoying themselves by picking up scattered around different areas within the designated workspace. I can help with light housekeeping, cooking, picking up the kids from school and laundry. I am looking forward to hearing from mommies & daddies!

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.
