Hi! I’m Iliana — a caregiver from San Francisco with hands-on experience caring for twins and toddlers. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids of all ages. I also offer light housekeeping, after-school pickup’s. I have my own transportation and am comfortable navigating around the city. I’d love to support a family looking for dependable childcare with a positive attitude and strong communication.

“Get along super well with our 5 year old girl. She is warm, cheerful, reliable, and excellent with communications. Also she is very open to helping out with light cleaning around the house and other household or personal assistant type of tasks. Highly recommend! ”

Booked by 5 families in Alameda, CA

Hi, I’m Leticia, and I’ve been taking care of children for over 7 years. Being around them reminds me that life can be light and fun. One of the things that I love most about being a nanny is seeing the world through their eyes, and also knowing that I’m helping a little person grow and develop brings purpose to my job. I have experience with children from infants to 12 year old, caring for kids of different ages and twins. I like to get to know the child I’ll be caring for so I can plan some activities based on what they like, but I also love spending time outdoors and doing creative activities like arts and crafts, pretend play, music, story time, etc. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a responsible driver, a non smoker, and pet friendly. I value open communication with parents and always try to create a warm, trusting relationship with the families I work with. I would love to talk more to get to know each other better and answer any questions you may have!

Booked by 3 families in Alameda, CA

Hi! My name is Melissa and I’m a full-time healthcare professional working in San Francisco. I offer evening and weekend babysitting for families who need reliable care for date nights or occasional help. I have several years of babysitting experience and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with dinner, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines, and I always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment while parents are away. Families describe me as responsible, patient, and dependable. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children with someone they trust, and I always strive to make evenings smooth and stress-free for everyone. I’m based in Mission Bay and happy to help families in nearby neighborhoods such as Dogpatch, Potrero Hill, SoMa, and surrounding areas. I’m also comfortable with pets and light tidying after activities. Looking forward to helping families enjoy a worry-free night out!

“She is simply the best! My toddler daughter loved every second she spent with Melissa!”

Hello, I'm Olivia! I work in healthcare and love working with families. I'm reliable and I have firm boundaries. I'm curious and one hundred percent engaged. Happy to help with homework, run errands, cook, do chores and of course spend time with your kids. I want to support in any way that I can because being a parent is hard. I'm available after 5pm on weekdays. I like some flexibility on weekends will room for accommodation.

Booked by 5 families in Alameda, CA

My experience mainly comes from my family. I have been babysitting my little brother since I was 10 and he was 6. More recently, I have been babysitting my cousins, a 1-year-old, a 4-year-old, and a 9-year-old. I have also managed kids at various summer camps. Whenever I take care of my cousins, we always end up belting out show tunes on our made-up stage. On the quieter side, I also like to draw and do paper crafts, so I am more than happy to sit with kids and do crafts for hours. I’m looking for summer work before heading off to college, and I’d love to help make your family’s summer a little easier.

“Our daughter had a great time with Zazie!”
