Hi, I’m Julia! I'm a career nanny in SF. I started nannying 12 years ago and never looked back! I truly enjoy getting to know new little ones and their parents. I am enthusiastic about making sure little ones stay safe, comfortable and having fun while their parents are busy. - 15 years total childcare experience in the Bay Area, first as a babysitter throughout high school and then the past 12 years as a nanny. - I've had long-term nanny jobs with children of all ages - newborns, toddlers, preschoolers and elementary schoolers, including families with multiple children. I’m engaging and playful with children at every stage of development. Love snuggles, games, reading, art, outings, etc! - The majority of my jobs over the years have been as a baby/toddler nanny, mostly within the 3 months-2.5 years old range before they transition to daycare or preschool. - I’ve always done occasional babysitting (i.e date night sitting) on the side for all ages! - Experience following napping and feeding schedules, sleep training, preparing bottles, initiating age-appropriate activities, and making adjustments as needed as the baby/toddler grows. - I love spending time outdoors and instilling a love of nature in children, so I appreciate situations where we are able to explore (by transit or on foot - no driving). As an SF local, I’m very familiar with parks, museums, the zoo, libraries, and many music/storytime classes throughout the city, and how to navigate Muni with a stroller! I’m part of a big network of nannies/families in SF, especially near GGP! - I was a full-time in-home tutor/school assistant for a kindergartener, 1st grader, and 2nd grader for a full year of the pandemic when schools were closed in 2[removed]. Education: Associates degree in Psychology (2017) Some relevant college courses I completed: 1. Intro to Child Development 2. Child Psychology 3. Children's Literature 4. Performance of Children's Lit -Most recent infant/child CPR and First Aid class: Nov 2023 at Natural Resources in SF. -Attended SF Nanny Training Day 2026 PLEASE NOTE: - All hrs booked are considered "guaranteed hours" in terms of pay, even if I am relieved early, etc. - If anyone in your home has been sick or exposed to covid, please cancel. I do not consent to working with sick kids. I work with multiple families weekly including infants and want to keep everyone healthy :) I will be transparent about any symptoms I have as well, so decisions can be made together.
“Julia was so great with my 6 month old. He was immediately comfortable around her and happy to play, take his bottle from her, etc. She took the initiative to take him out for an adventure to the park so that he could enjoy the nice day and fresh air. Would love to work with her again!”
I have 10+ years of babysitting experience, including caring for the same family for 8 years—from when the child was a newborn through age 8. That experience taught me how to handle everything from infant care to school routines with patience and consistency. I’m reliable, easygoing, and love spending time with kids—whether that’s playing, helping with homework, or keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m also big on clear communication with parents and making sure everyone feels comfortable.
Hello! - My name is Debbie, and I am a medical student at UCSF. I am offering child and pet care services. I have experiences watching toddlers and kids since the age of 18. In particular, I have worked as a camp counselor for 2-5-year-olds for the Neil Klatskin summer camp in 2018. Additionally, I have served as an undergraduate tutor for K-8 underrepresented students through the Latino Student Fund. I understand how much of a privilege it is take on this role and recognize how important it is to be a source of comfort and guidance to children in their childhood and adolescent years. I am also happy to work with families that have cats!
“Debbie has taken care of our cat, Gigi, several times. Would highly recommend! She is communicative, punctual and caring. She also takes great pet photos that have made us feel confident our fur baby is doing well while we're away :)”
Hi there! I’m a warm, creative, and self-motivated caregiver with over 20 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. I prioritize working with families who are fully vaccinated and am excited to connect with those who need evening or late-night (disco nannying!) care. I have worked with newborns to 14 year olds. I’ve worked as a full-time nanny, evening babysitter, and in private schools in NYC and SF. Right now, I’m looking for part-time and consistent evening roles. I love making childcare fun and enriching! Some of my favorite activities with kids include creating art, singing, making music, dancing, baking, and reading stories. I believe the occasional movie night can be a great bonding experience too. My approach to childcare is soulful, joyful, and filled with shared stories and laughter. Fluent in both English and Spanish. Let’s connect!
My name is Lilian but everyone calls me Lily. I’m from Mexico City. I was an au pair for two years and been working as a nanny for more than four years now. I have over 1000 hours of experience with kids from 4 months old to 13 years old. I’m responsible, open minded, outgoing and flexible. I love to do any kind of activities, outdoors and indoors! Being an au pair during the pandemic gave me a lot of personal and professional resources to make the children have a good time and learn. I have a BA in Developmental Psychology, an MA in Sociology and currently doing a PhD in Education. I’m bilingual, so I can help with Spanish/English homework or assignments or just to practice both languages. The most important thing for me will always be the security of your kids so I'll make sure that they are safe in every place we are. That being said, I’m fully vaccinated, boostered and COVID cautious. I don’t have a car but I do have driver’s license and clean record, so driving in parents car won’t be a problem. And my main means of transportation is my e-bike that takes me everywhere! I have excellent references from all the families I have worked with if they are needed!
“Lily is wonderful! She helped our family out both as a babysitter and mother's helper and I could not recommend her more. She was punctual, reliable and really caring and nurturing with my daughter. We can't wait to work with Lily again.”
