Hi! My name is Erin and I'm the oldest of three kids and a recent(ish) college grad. I'm offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have experience working with babies and toddlers in a childcare setting, elementary school-age children in a sleep-away camp setting, and high schoolers in a residential dorm setting. I have a compassionate and collaborative approach to conflict resolution that prioritizes sensitivity and empathy to anyone I'm interacting with. I've led children in arts and crafts, games, and intentional conversations, which would translate well into taking children to the playground, on walks, or helping with homework. My pet sitting experience so far as been with cats and dogs (check in visits, feeding, walks, and clean up), but I'm definitely open to working with other pets. For household services, I can cook, clean, do laundry, and lightly organize.

I have a lot of experience working with kids of all kinds/ages, also PT, OT, Speech experiences. All those years I work, I have become a person with a lot of patience, know how to de-escalated tantrums. Also, I worked with kids in after school hours and tutored kids from AFY/PKS/CAIS. I’m also a mom of 2 kids 8 (G)and 10 (B) yrs old. We often take kids outings like Zoo, Cal Academy, playgrounds to explore. Children’s safety/mental wellness is my top priority!

** OUT OF TOWN UNTIL THANKSGIVING ** Hi! I’m Hannah, a student at Middlebury College. I’m in San Francisco for the summer and love to reconnect with families I’ve previously worked with and meet new ones when I’m home during breaks. I just completed a summer fellowship at SPUR (public policy org) and am looking for babysitting jobs before I go back to Vermont for my last semester! I offer part-time and occasional babysitting as well as pet care. I have 10 years of experience babysitting for families with children ranging from age 1 to 14. My responsibilities have included picking up from school, helping with homework, preparing meals, helping with bath/shower time and doing crafts/playing games. I’ve been described as empathetic, trusting, punctual, hardworking, and joyful by previous families. Besides babysitting, I love sports and have experience working as a junior soccer coach. I also love the outdoors and especially love helping kids engage with curiosity and joy in nature! During the summer of 2020, I also developed curriculum and led a virtual climate camp for 4th to 6th graders. Additionally, I worked as a virtual reading tutor during covid and am happy to provide homework support. At home, I have a cat and golden retriever pup and am a huge animal lover! I offer walking, feeding, and have experience with house visits caring for cats and dogs while their families are on vacation. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I look forward to connecting!
“Hannah was fantastic - my schedule was a bit up in the air and her flexibility was very much appreciated. She was great with the kids, they loved hanging out with her and had a full day of fun activities. Excited to have her back soon!”
Hi! My name is Alex. I grew up in the East Bay and have been living in San Francisco for over 10 years. I’m currently teaching 5th grade at a SFUSD public school. In the past, I have tutored for after school programs for elementary students, fostering great relationships with children and enjoying watching them grow and learn. I frequently babysit for children ages 2-10 years old but have experience with all age groups. I served in the Peace Corps (2[removed]) where I taught Literacy and English Langauge Arts in West Africa (Liberia & Sierra Leone). I also worked as a Special Education Paraeducator at a high school in the SFUSD before transitioning to my current position as a general education/multiple subject elementary teacher. I am currently available for as an occasional date night sitter that can use my experience to create a fun and caring environment for any child or children. I am open to babysitting weekends, weekdays, and special occasions. Thanks for looking at my profile.
