Hi, I’m Paloma! I’ve been taking care of children for over 15 years as a big sister and aunt, looking after kids of all ages, especially toddlers. I love creative play, storytelling, and sharing new languages—I'm fully bilingual in Spanish and enjoy incorporating it into fun activities. I’m committed to creating a nurturing and playful environment where kids feel safe and happy. I don’t drive but am happy to help with anything in the home and can easily work with families with pets.
Hi families! My name is Arnelyn and I graduated from UC Davis in 2021 with a major in Psychology and minor in Sociology. I am excited to offer childcare support and household support if needed. I have worked with children for as long as I can remember. I am the eldest of 5 children so I’ve had my fair share in having to babysit and watch my siblings. In addition, I have almost 5 years experience working in Youth Development as a Program Leader and Program Coordinator for an afterschool program. I have had the opportunity to work with school aged children from TK all the way to 5th grade. I currently work in the social services department where I work closely with adults and their children. I can support children with homework, reading, and arts & crafts activities. I am excited to meet your family!
Hi there my name is Courtney! I just moved from Seattle to San Francisco and looking for work as a caregiver. I’ve been working in childcare for over ten years, and have my degree in early childhood education. I’m also a certified newborn care specialist and post partum doula! I’ve done nannying, babysitting, and teaching for so many families and have made life long connections with them!
I’m a dependable and compassionate nanny with several years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with special needs. I’ve completed Human Growth and Development and Teaching coursework, which helps me understand children’s emotional and developmental stages. I’m patient, creative, and love keeping kids engaged through play, learning, and routine. I’m also comfortable with pets, light housekeeping, and school pickups. Families describe me as reliable, calm under pressure, and easy to communicate with.
