Hi my name is Patrick but go by my preferred name Benny. I live and work in San Francisco in the financial services industry on the client services team. I’ve always loved working with kids and have experience looking after toddlers and kids having two young boy cousins (current age 7 and 5) who I care for from time to time. I can cook and complete other household chores as needed and am looking forward to helping families in the city!
Hi! I’m Valentina 😊 I’m originally from Colombia 🇨🇴 and currently live in San Francisco. I speak Spanish and English, and I really enjoy working with children and getting to know their little personalities. I’m also a Marketing graduate from Colombia, and I’d be happy to share my language and culture with your family if you’re interested. I’d love to teach Spanish through everyday conversations, songs, books, or little things from Colombian culture in a fun and natural way. 👶 My childcare experience Right now, I work full-time taking care of a 10-month-old baby during the day, so I’m very comfortable with the everyday routine that comes with caring for a baby. I help with things like: • Bottles and meals • Diaper changes and getting dressed • Naps and bedtime routines • Tummy time and age-appropriate play • Reading, singing, and keeping the baby engaged • Going for walks and getting out of the house • Following the parents’ routine and instructions • Making sure the baby is always safe and comfortable Before my current job, I cared for a 2-year-old boy, and I’ve also babysat children of different ages. I also regularly babysit, including two sisters who are 3 and 5 years old. I’ve learned that every child is different. Some want to play nonstop, some need a little more patience when they’re tired, and sometimes the best part of babysitting is simply getting down on the floor and playing with them. I really enjoy that part of the job. ❤️ 🧸 What I enjoy doing with kids ⚽️ I don’t like babysitting to feel like I’m just “watching” a child. I like being involved with them and making the time together fun. Depending on their age and what they enjoy, I like doing things such as: • Arts and crafts 🎨 • Reading books 📚 • Drawing and coloring • Music and dancing 🎶 • Imaginative play • Going to the park or taking walks • Age-appropriate games • Helping with meals and snacks • Creating a calm routine before nap or bedtime I’m also happy to follow whatever routine parents already have at home. I know how important consistency is, especially for babies and toddlers. ❤️ A little more about me • CPR Certified ❤️🩹 • Fully vaccinated 💉 • Non-smoker 🚭 • Pet-friendly 🐾 • Spanish & English speaker 🇨🇴🇺🇸 • Marketing graduate 🎓 • Experienced with babies & toddlers 👶
I recently graduated from CU Boulder with a degree in Business Marketing and moved to San Francisco. I'm excited to meet families in the area who could use some extra help with childcare, pets, or around the house. I'm a very organized and hands-on person — I love staying busy, planning fun activities and keeping things running smoothly. I enjoy cooking, baking, crafts and anything creative! I'm also always happy to help with light chores or meal prep if needed. Childcare Experience: - Worked at a local country club’s childcare center from July 2019–March 2020, and again the following summer. I cared for kids from 3 months to 12 years old, planned games and crafts, and got to know many families well. - Babysat regularly throughout high school for children ages 6 months to 13 years, gaining experience with a wide range of ages, routines, and personalities. - Since graduating, I’ve worked with several families caring for infants (around 4 months to 1 year), which has given me even more hands-on experience with feeding, naps, and early development. - Comfortable helping with homework (especially math) and school projects. - Happy to drive kids to activities or school if needed. Pet Care: - I’m an animal lover and have experience pet sitting with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to feed, walk, or just hang out and give them some extra love and attention! If you’re looking for someone responsible, organized, and great with kids and pets, I’d love to chat! I’m happy to help as a regular babysitter, occasional sitter, or even assist with house sitting and other household needs.
“Emma was great! Punctual, very sweet with our son, and super responsive. Will definitely book again!”
Hello, My name is Alec. I am a student at the University of Michigan home for the summer. I would love to help your family with babysitting, housesitting, errand help, cooking, and more. I have my own vehicle and have experience with children Pre-K through Middle School. I love playing sports, doing crafts, playing games, and being outside. I look forward to getting a chance to meet you soon.
Grew up taking care of my younger sister while both my parents worked long hours. Worked for healthcare system backoffice software for the last decade. Looking to make a bigger community impact and help real people outside the healthcare system. I'm extremely patient and work well with all sorts of personalities, albeit I can be a little bit awkward sometimes. I love fixing things and getting into the details. Always happy to listen to people's stories.
