Rakshya 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents, I am Rakshya Nepal Mom of twin boys . I have been working with family from 2016 but took a break once I had my own . Now they are off to school and I have more time to help family that need support. I am New to this sitter app and looking forward to join you, I am available to help you and family with anything and everything. Courses on Early Childhood Development Strong communication and patience Creative activity planning Basic cooking and nutrition awareness Emergency response and problem-solving Time management and responsibility No allergies . Fully vaccinated . And open and can adapt to your way of parenting

“I’m happy to recommend Rakshya as a nanny. She has been wonderful with our child and brought such a calm, positive energy into our home. Rakshya spent time reading books, which our child really enjoyed, and it helped encourage learning and imagination. She is very patient—never annoyed, always smiling, and she speaks so politely and kindly. Our child felt comfortable and happy around her. We never asked her to do any specific things but she did everything on her own. She was also always on time and very reliable, which made things much easier for us as parents. One time, my husband didn’t wake up when she arrived, and instead of leaving, she patiently waited for 45 minutes. That really showed her dedication and responsibility. We always knew we could count on her, and we truly appreciated her caring nature. I would definitely recommend Rakshya to any family looking for a caring, dependable, and gentle nanny.”

Delilah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Delilah, and I am a dedicated and compassionate nanny with several years of hands-on childcare experience. I spent one year working as a nanny at Tiny Giants San Francisco, where I supported children in a nurturing, structured, and engaging environment before transitioning into private nannying. In addition to my childcare background, I work as a medical receptionist at a clinic and am currently a pre-nursing medical student at Contra Costa College. I also hold an Associate’s degree from San Francisco State University, which has strengthened my communication, organization, and responsibility skills—qualities I bring into every family I work with. I truly love working with children and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and positive space where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my Aussiedoodle, Bruno, who often joins me on my adventures. Caring for others is not just a job for me—it’s a passion, and I find so much joy in building meaningful connections through my career as a nanny.

Gabrielle $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Gabrielle. I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely loves spending time with children. I’ve been involved in my church’s children’s ministry since I was a teenager, caring for children of all ages—from just a few months old through high school. Over the years, that experience has taught me how to connect with different personalities and age groups, keep children engaged, manage routines, and create an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and happy to help with age-appropriate activities, simple meals or snacks, and light household tasks. I’m also very comfortable around pets. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in the person caring for their children, so I take safety, communication, reliability, and trust very seriously. I truly love kids and would be happy to become someone your family can depend on.

Shaaravi $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Shaaravi but you can call me Sasha :) . I currently work in real estate, but I’ve also spent years caring for children, from babysitting at ages 16-18 to working as an au pair (live in nanny) in France and Italy. I’m looking to make some extra income while doing something I truly enjoy: helping kids feel safe, supported, and happy. As an au pair, I cared for children of different ages, managing school routines, playtime, meals, and household responsibilities. That experience taught me patience, flexibility, and how to balance fun with structure. I’d love the chance to support your family and create a safe, positive environment for your children. Looking forward to connecting!
