Jessica $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi❣️ I hope you are well! 💐 My name is Jessica. I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced childcare provider with a B.S. in Psychology and Child Development from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I previously studied finance and engineering before realizing that my heart and strengths are truly in working with children and supporting families! 💗 I’ve worked with children for many years in both private family and school settings, including as a nanny and babysitter. I also spent a year as a program coordinator at Cove Elementary, leading enrichment programs for K-4 students in everything from financial literacy and sewing to gardening, circuits, and hands-on creative projects. I genuinely love working with children of all ages, with an especially natural connection to ages 1-5! I love creating a warm, engaging environment through outdoor adventures, imaginative play, reading, creative activities, and developmentally appropriate learning with no screen time. What I value most is becoming someone a family can truly rely on. I care deeply about the children I work with, and find a real sense of purpose in supporting the whole family system, not simply providing childcare. I’m happy to help with meal preparation, outings, errands, light household tasks, and keeping things organized :) I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified and take safety, reliability, and communication seriously. I especially love building lasting relationships with families and would be thrilled to connect with a family looking for consistent, recurring care! Hope to meet you 💌

Tyler $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Tyler, and I was born and raised in Burlingame and recently moved to San Francisco! I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder and moved back home to start my career. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m excited to offer childcare, senior care, pet care, and household services to local families. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, caring for infants, toddlers, and kids of all ages. My responsibilities have included driving to activities, organizing crafts, lifeguarding, tutoring, and more. In addition to childcare, I’m experienced as a household assistant and can help with cooking, organizing, running errands, and managing household tasks. I’ve also cared for my own grandparents, so I’m comfortable providing senior care, whether it’s cooking meals, driving to appointments, assisting with daily tasks, or simply offering companionship. I pride myself on being responsible, trustworthy, and great with kids—always ensuring their safety while making sure they have fun. I look forward to supporting your family!
