Kara $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents/families! My name is Kara and I’m searching for occasional or regular part-time opportunities for childcare or pet care in San Francisco. I’m a 23yo grad student at USF and am currently located in outer Sunset, and can reasonably commute to most places in the city. I make my own schedule so I am flexible to work most weekdays or weekends. Though I’m new to this app, I have worked with children of all ages for the past 5 years, ranging 4mo to 12yrs. I was previously a full time nanny to three children and have worked with many families in sf. I am CPR and first aid certified. I’m happy to provide references upon request! I am also a lifelong pet owner and have been caring for dogs/cats my whole life and am open to pet care positions! I would love to meet/work with your family :)

Sathiya $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Sathiya, a cheerful, dedicated, and detail-oriented nanny, babysitter, pet sitter, and family assistant originally from Bangkok, Thailand, now happily based in San Francisco since 2019. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I’d love to connect! I just started using this app, so my reviews are still building, but I’ve been caring for children since around 2020. I’m happy to share references or answer any questions to help you feel comfortable. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience raising my own children and more than 5 years in professional caregiving, I specialize in nurturing, patient, and attentive care for children of all ages including newborns. I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and engaging environment where little ones can thrive. Along with childcare, I’m also available to assist with pet sitting, house sitting, and household management from keeping things tidy and organized to managing vendors or overseeing home maintenance. I genuinely enjoy helping families run their homes smoothly and efficiently. I bring professionalism, kindness, and care to everything I do, and I believe in creating calm, supportive systems that make family life a little easier. I’d be happy to provide my references, background check, and vaccination records upon request. Please see my resume : [removed] Looking forward to connecting and supporting your family with warmth and excellence! Warmly, Sathiya

Cate $25 per hour for 1 child

Having just completed my master's degree in Global Health, I have recently moved to San Francisco and am looking to work in childcare while I get settled. I have steadily watched children of all ages (anywhere from 4 months to 11 years) since I was a young teenager. I last worked as an after-school nanny to a five-year-old boy while I was getting my undergraduate degree in Washington, DC. I have also worked as an English literacy tutor for kindergarteners. I genuinely adore children, and would love to help your family out! I am also happy to provide references. In my free time, I love to practice yoga, rock climb, cook, and explore the city's parks and museums.

Neha $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Neha and I just moved to the area from Washington, DC! In DC, I served as a part time nanny of 2 children (ages 6 and 9) for 4 years. I also was the part time nanny of a 2 year old girl for 2 years. Additionally I have done many occasional babysitting gigs for a range of ages from infants to 14 year olds. I am passionate about childcare and am a very caring and kind nanny. I am willing to help with homework and am conscious of any rules that need to be maintained. I love to play and am always suggesting playing with toys, or playing outside to keep kids off screens! I have played everything from barbie to hide and seek to legos with kids and truly love it. I prioritize the safety of your children and am always available for communication on my phone. I like to keep parents updated with check-ins. I have a valid drivers license and am happy to drive but do not have a car. Overall, I truly love taking care of children and have extensive experience!
