Grace 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Sausalito, CA

Hi! My name is Grace and I work in interior design and live in San Francisco. I have been babysitting since I was 14 and have primarily watched children ages 1-9. I spent one year as a live in au pair in Italy and enjoy childcare, pet care and general household assistant roles. I love bonding with children, playing, running errands and cooking and am excited to be around any and all pets. I always maintain a tidy home and am happy to help out with household chores. My availability is generally limited to evenings and weekends. Ask me anything:)

“Absolutely recommend Grace to anyone looking for a kind, professional, and fun sitter. She cared for my 2 month and 5 year old for an all day affair, and the older one cannot wait for Grace to come over again. 10/10! ”

Lily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m 27 and have been babysitting for as long as I can remember. I have experience with kids of all ages and am comfortable caring for everyone from little ones to older kids. I work full-time during the day, so I’m typically available for evening babysitting from around 5–11pm. I’m happy to help with dinner, playtime, bedtime routines, or just keeping everyone entertained while you enjoy a night out! In my free time, I love reading, making art, and staying active and playing sports, and I’m always happy to incorporate those interests into activities with the kids I babysit. I’m responsible, dependable, and love creating a fun, comfortable environment for kids while making sure parents can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

Booked by 1 family in Sausalito, CA

Hey! My name is Sana! I have a few years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up with two cats for most of my life and also lived with the most lovable golden doodle, Nala! Over the past three years, I’ve also helped pet sit for friends’ cats and dogs, and I’ve cared for my roommate’s dog, Nala, for multiple days at a time. I currently work in a hybrid position, so I’m in the office three days a week. On those days, I usually leave around 8 a.m. and return by 5 p.m. I’m very flexible with my schedule and can adjust my in-office days or visit times to fit your pet’s needs. I love meeting new furry friends and will always be patient and attentive to your pet’s needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! :)

Hello! My name is Daisy and I offer child care and even pet care too. I am a recent college graduate living here in San Francisco, specifically in the Outer Sunset. I have been babysitting since I was sixteen years old, from babies less than one to eleven year olds. My responsibilities have included playing with the kids, reading, and light cooking and cleaning. I love keeping kids engaged such as playing in the park, playing games or reading books. I make sure to keep kids entertained, while maintaining a clean environment.
