Hello! My name is Salika B, and I’m a responsible, compassionate, and energetic babysitter with over two years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where they feel loved, respected, and encouraged to be themselves. I specialize in planning fun, educational, and age-appropriate activities that spark creativity and promote learning—such as arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor games, storytime, and basic educational games that support early development. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing healthy snacks or meals, and maintaining routines like bedtime and screen time in a calm and positive way. What sets me apart is my patient and caring nature, my reliability, and my genuine passion for helping children grow with confidence and curiosity. I understand the importance of trust and open communication with parents, and I’m always happy to work together to ensure your child’s unique needs are met. Please don't hesitate to contact me at [removed]) if you have any questions or would like to discuss how I can best support your family. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your little ones! Thank you for considering me as your babysitter!
Hi! My name is Maggie and I’m a college student looking to pick up some part time gigs! I love outdoor activities, music, cooking, and running around!! I have 2 years of paid babysitting experience but have grown up with younger siblings my whole life and really feel comfortable working with kids of any age but prefer working with 2 yrs and up! I have experience in household chores, meal prep, and taking care of pets so whatever needs to be done I am more than happy to help :) I also worked as a tutor in high-school and am very available to help with school work. I’m a big fan of sending picture updates/facetime’s while babysitting so parents know everything is ok; communication is my biggest concern. Thanks for reading, I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family!
Hi Families! I would like to introduce myself, my name is Bianca, but I also go by Bibi. I am a full time dental assistant and love what I do. As a dental assistant for both adults and children, i’ve learned to be patient, gentle and really tune into what each child needs to feel comfortable. I bring warmth, kindness, & positive energy to every moment. I’d love the chance to make your child feel happy, cared for, & right at home with me!
Hello Families ! My name is Erika. I am from San Francisco and have lived in the bay area my entire life. I have experience caring for children of all ages and I am currently a nanny for a wonderful family with 3 children, ages 7, 4, and 2. I am fully vaccinated and will gladly provide proof at your request. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Hi, my name is Charlotte! I graduated from Lick-Wilmerding High School in 2025 and have since completed my freshman year at Tufts University. I’m taking a year off from college and will be home in San Francisco for the year, and I’m looking for both ad hoc and part-time work. I’m offering child care, pet care, and light household services. I absolutely love working with kids and have 5 years of experience at local summer camps with kids ages 4-12. My responsibilities within these programs have primarily included planning and leading activities, games, and arts-and-crafts projects. I also have extensive experience volunteering with young people who have physical and/or developmental disabilities. I have some experience tutoring elementary school and high school students, so I’d be happy to help with homework if helpful. I love to cook and bake, do creative projects, play soccer, dance, and spend time outdoors. I am Red Cross certified in emergency response, as well as adult and pediatric first aid/CPR/AED. I also love animals! I have the most experience with dogs and cats (i.e., walking, feeding, playing with), but I would be happy to care for any kind of pet. I’m happy to cook, clean, and do other light household chores.
