Hello families, My name is Celia I am 22 years old and I have a valid driver’s license. I am a caring, responsible, and energetic person with experience looking after children from 2 to 15 years old. Over the years, I have helped children with their daily routines, school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework, meal preparation, bedtime routines, and a variety of fun and educational activities. Thanks to my experience with different age groups, I am able to adapt to each child’s personality, needs, and interests. I enjoy organizing creative activities, playing games, spending time outdoors, reading stories, and encouraging children to learn and grow in a positive environment. I believe that patience, kindness, and good communication are essential when caring for children. Families describe me as reliable, mature, organized, and trustworthy. My goal is always to create a safe, happy, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, confident, and cared for. I look forward to becoming a positive part of a family’s daily life and building meaningful connections with both parents and children.
Hi! My name is Ingrid and I have experience working with children of different ages. I have worked as a babysitter, in schools, and with child development. I also have experience with household tasks like organizing, laundry, light cleaning, and meal preparation. I would love to help your family!
Hi! I'm Riley, I'm 23, and living in the Nob Hill/Polk Gulch area. I graduated from the University of Denver with a BSBA in marketing last June, but grew up in the East Bay, and have been living in San Francisco for almost three months. Throughout high school, I frequently babysat for a family with three kids (aged 2-12) and a dog, along with a family with two kids (aged 4-7) and cats. I also worked at a summer camp, responsible for around ten 2-6 year-olds at a time for several hours a day. I'm comfortable cooking, cleaning, helping kids with tasks like dressing, and of course, playing! I can help with homework, assuming it's nothing too advanced. I also have a kitten of my own. I would love to meet you and your family and babysit whenever possible. I'm enthusiastic and outgoing, and love spending time with kids! I love to make friendship bracelets, paint, cook, bake, color, and lots of other activities that we could have fun doing together. I'm also happy to take kids out to the park, for a snack, and other outings. I don't have a car, but I'm comfortable doing errands I can walk to. Also happy to help with laundry and other household tasks whenever the kids are busy playing and within eyeshot.
Hi! I’m a behavioral therapist who works with children with special needs, mainly ages 2–7. I’m experienced in supporting communication, behavior, and social development in a patient and positive way. I love working with kids and creating a safe, fun, and structured environment. I’m excited to support families who need a reliable and caring sitter.
Hi, my name is Angie and I am currently looking for occasional, full time or part time work. I offer childcare, senior care and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, babies, toddlers and children since I was 17. My responsibilities include driving to and from school, crafts, tutoring and even lessons in another language if you prefer (Spanish). I also work as a home helper and can cook, clean and run errands. I have been an occasional pet sitter, I love animals and have been able to take care of them when their owners are away or take them for a walk around the neighborhood.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
