Hi there! I'm Charlotte. I have a degree in Sociology from the USF, and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter/nanny. I am currently a full time nanny for a one year old in Bernal Heights for 3 weeks of the month, every 4th week the baby is cared for by her grandmother, and I am looking to pick up some short term/date-night gigs during that week, or evening gigs during the other weeks. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers, as well as caring for multi-child homes with 4+ children. I truly love working with kids, I am a certified yoga instructor and have worked at a kids summer theater camp. I can provide multiple references upon request.

“Charlotte has been watching our child since she was 7 months old as her full time nanny, essentially raising our kid with us. Her attention to detail, collaborative nature, and overwhelming kindness make her the perfect person to watch your kids in any capacity. ”

Lalita $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Lita. I recently completed the UX Design Bootcamp at UC Berkeley Extension and am currently offering childcare, Doula, and household support services. I genuinely enjoy working with children and have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids—including twins. My past responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, arts and crafts, tutoring, and even teaching swimming lessons. In addition to childcare, I also assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have a passion for cooking and love sharing Thai cuisine—sometimes I even cook together with the children as a fun, hands-on activity that helps us connect. I’m also comfortable working in homes with pets and occasionally help with dog and cat sitting as well. I’d be happy to learn more about your family’s needs and see how I can support you!
