Find a last-minute babysitter in San Francisco, CA

Hi families! I currently work in education as a 4th grade teacher and offer babysitting support to families around the city. I’m passionate about supporting children’s growth, creativity, and confidence. My experience lies mainly with toddlers and elementary age students, and I have worked with multi-child families for 2+ years. Crafts, outdoor play, reading, and hands-on activities are some of my favorite ways to spend time with kids. I also love to offer homework help and support!

Hi families! I’m Zayne, a babysitter with over 5 years of hands-on experience with children from newborns to school-age, supporting their social and educational development. I love spending time with kids at parks, playgrounds, and craft spaces — creating structured, playful routines from arts & crafts to imaginative games. I observe each child’s behavior to find the best approach for them, always respecting their pace so they feel safe and comfortable. Currently available mostly on weekends and open to occasional dates. Feel free to reach out — whether it’s making your routine smoother or giving you a well-deserved date night!

Hello! My name is Laure, and I'm a UC Berkeley graduate (Go Bears!) with a B.A. in Public Health and minors in Data Science and Forestry & Natural Resources. I'm currently based in San Francisco and will be starting graduate school at UCSF this fall. In the meantime, I have a very flexible schedule and am actively seeking babysitting opportunities. I'm a dedicated childcare provider with a passion for working with children of all ages. With over 13 years of experience in the Girl Scouts, where I earned the prestigious Gold Award, I've developed a strong sense of leadership and responsibility. My professional background includes teaching gymnastics to children at The Little Gym, where I combined fun with physical activity, volunteering at the Saratoga Library, hosting storybook hours and helping children develop a love for reading, and babysitting for 3+ years during my time as an undergraduate student at UC Berkeley. I am dedicated to creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for every child in my care. As a CPR-certified caregiver, I prioritize safety and preparedness in every childcare situation. I obtained my certification through my role as a student course instructor, where I was trained in emergency response and first aid. This experience has equipped me with the skills to handle unexpected situations calmly and effectively, ensuring the well-being of the children under my care. I am strong and capable, easily lifting over 50 pounds, making it effortless for me to assist with carrying children, strollers, or any necessary gear. Please note that I do not have a car, so I am best suited for families who can arrange drop-off/pick-up or are accessible by public transit. I prioritize safety, punctuality, and creating a positive, nurturing environment. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, making sure both parents and children feel at ease. I have babysat regularly for Bay Area families throughout my time at Cal. With the kids I babysit, I love getting them outdoors and exploring—whether it's running together along the waterfront (I've done 5+ mile runs with some kiddos, connecting my Cal Triathlon background with childcare—it's a win-win!), tasting our way through the city's best ice cream shops, or turning local parks into a jungle full of imagination.

Hi Everyone! My name is Megan, I'm 30 and I'm originally from Duluth, Minnesota! I have been a Nanny for 11 years, including 2 years in Minnesota and 2 years abroad as an au pair (Australia, England and Italy) before moving to San Francisco in 2019.

I'm a non smoker and can pass all background checks! I speak English and some Italian. I can also provide 3+ excellent references! I love cooking, baking, hiking, traveling, the beach, animals, nature, crafts, sports, games, singing, dancing, learning new things and staying organized. I'm very outgoing, and am always open, honest and transparent! If you think I could be a good fit or have any questions for me please let me know and we can connect! I am looking for a full time position starting ASAP in San Francisco!
