Hi! My name is Phia and I would be happy to work with you. I have been working with children professionally since I was 16 but babysat before then. I have worked with children of varying ages, from infants 3 months and older, toddlers, elementary age, all the way up to young teenagers preparing for high school. I graduated from the University of San Francisco with a BA in sociology in May 2022. I now work as a project coordinator supervising youth development and policy at a local non-profit. I still work with babysitting families 1-2 times a week. In the Bay Area, I have worked as an after-school program leader for the YMCA in SFUSD, as well as a classroom aid. Beyond this, I have worked as an interim babysitter and nanny for various families before and during the pandemic. Through my time with the YMCA and other organizations, I have been trained in childhood development and creative education. I enjoy working with kids because it helps me keep in tune with my ability to empathize and stay creative. Children are the expression of a community, so staying in tune with the needs and experiences of youth is better for the community as a whole. Booking and payment policy: Same day cancellation, if you cancel within 4 hours of the booking start time, you are agreeing to pay me 1/2 of lost wages.
“Phia is so great with my kids! She and my toddler especially get along great, and she does an awesome job playing with him. Highly recommend.”
Hello families! Warm, reliable nanny with 5+ years of experience available for weekend babysitting and date nights. I’m a caring and experienced nanny who has worked with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I truly love working with children and enjoy creating fun, engaging, and educational activities while helping maintain a safe, happy, and structured environment. I’m currently working with a wonderful family during the week, which I really enjoy, but I’m available for weekend babysitting, occasional care, and date nights if your family ever needs an extra helping hand. I’m also happy to help with pet sitting during the week or weekends, as I love animals and feel very comfortable caring for them. I’m reliable, patient, and responsible, and I always prioritize children’s safety and well-being. I recently renewed my CPR and First Aid certification. I’m bilingual (Portuguese and English), a non-smoker, vaccinated, and very pet-friendly. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and help create a positive and caring environment for your children whenever you need weekend or occasional care. References are available.
“Thaiany was great with my kids, very caring and responsible. Would hire again, thank you! ”
Hi! I am just ending 8 great years as an after-school nanny and family assistant and before that 7 great years as a preschool teacher, working with kids aged 2. 5 --5. I worked within 3 classrooms, experiencing all the ages from toddlers to pre-k. I have worked with children of all ages on some level - babysitting, preschool, after-school care, summer programs and tutoring - for the past 30 years. I naturally gravitate to children and get on their level pretty easily while also maintaining the responsibility and authority a child might need when not in the care of parents. My care philosophy is very child centered and respectful, similar to the philosophies of RIE, Magda Geber and play based learning. I am available for date nights, after school and weekend care. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are read (my children's book library keeps growing), craft activities and cooking (bonus: I do the cleanup!).
Hello families! NANNY WITH A BABY BOY. My baby was born 05/14/2026 and I'm considering a nanny share option adding another baby. I'm a compassionate and highly skilled nanny with a background as CERTIFIED PEDIATRIC NURSE from Italy, 11 yrs experience in childcare. My background as a pediatric nurse + studying child development at SFCC, gives me the unique insights into healthcare, nurturing, and understanding the diverse needs of little ones at all ages. 5 things about me, if you'd like to know more...keep reeding :) ONE: I love being a caregiver. Over the years, I've cared for children of all ages, supporting their unique personalities and needs. I love being around kids and I strongly believe they are all unique and special, authentic and pure. They are the best teachers. I love supporting their development making them free to be and experience the world in a safe space, where feelings are supported and kindness is the base of the relationship. TWO: I am offering household services! My caregiving isn't limited to the little ones, I love supporting families with household tasks. I know how valuable is an extra pair of hands and I am happy to be that trustworthy person you can rely on. THREE: About my personality at work and outside of work. - I approach every child with genuine care and empathy, creating a safe and nurturing space for them to thrive. This is who I am even with adults, I am kind and respectful. - I am very creative and I love playtime, art and craft, outdoor activities and nature. Working with kids allow me to be more playful and I love this aspect of the job! - I am reliable! Parents can trust that their children are in expert hands. I take pride in being a skillful caregiver, creating a sense of security for both kids and parents. FOUR: A bit about me outside of childcare: I practice yoga and meditation, I am going to attend a yoga teacher training at the end of the year (very excited about this!!! - This is not going to affect being able to provide childcare), I love propagating plants, painting, reading good books and spending time in nature. FIVE: Something cool about me: I'm Italian, born and raised, I can cook some Italian delicious food for you and help you plan out your next visit with great insights ;)
“Sara was wonderful with my newborn, keeping him relaxed and calm throughout the day. She also prepared healthy meals for my older child, which was such a help. I really appreciated her thoughtful updates that kept me at ease. I would highly recommend her to any family.”
