Hi, my name is Alexis and live in the Cole Valley area. I have worked with children for a lot of my life including babysitting, camp counselor, art teacher, and most importantly aunt to three. I am currently in college at San Francisco State University as a political science major. I am working toward becoming an elementary education teacher. Let me know if you have any questions!
“Alexis was great! My kids 11 and 9 had a great time with her and can’t wait to have her back again soon!”
Hi, I'm Roselyn! As a mom to an 8-year-old, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring for your children. I have an Associate's Degree in Psychology, nursing education from the Philippines, and I'm currently studying toward a career in Occupational Therapy. My education and parenting experience have given me a strong foundation in child development, safety, and caregiving. I strive to provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment for every child in my care.
Hello! My name is Annika - I’m offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve been working with children for nearly seven years now, and have experience tutoring all age levels. I grew up on a farm, so I’m very comfortable taking care of furry (or scaly) friends too! I’d be happy to help around the house - cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and running errands.
“So kind and sweet with our 3 month old baby! Thank you again for all your help today. :) ”
Hello, my name is Laura, but most children affectionately call me Yaya. I am a lifelong San Franciscan, fluent in Spanish, and have been married for 24 years. I retired two years ago after a fulfilling 38-year career as a letter carrier with the U.S. Postal Service. I am a proud mother of two grown children and grandmother to four wonderful grandchildren, ages 6 to 17. I have always enjoyed volunteering at school events, whether supporting sports, leading reading groups, or organizing craft activities. I frequently drive my grandchildren to school, appointments, and extracurricular activities, and I am readily available for school drop-offs. With more free time now, I am eager to share my love for children and believe this opportunity is a perfect fit. Thank you!
“I can’t begin to express how wonderful Laura has been for my boys. She’s reliable, responsive, and all the basics but warm, fun, energetic, inspiring, loving too. Over the course of the few days she took care of my oldest, his behavior improved and his attitude! My boys love her. She just knows how kids work. She is everything you can possibly want in a person caring for your child and I love that she’s a straight shooter with parents too. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Laura! ”
