Hi! I'm Perla, I currently work at a K-8th charter school for the Special Education department as well as for the education department of a nonprofit where I work with children ranging from kindergarten to 6th grade. I have been babysitting since for 8 years for different families around the city of San Francisco. I can help with anything ranging from feeding to sleep time to homework. I am a very patient tutor when it comes to homework help. I love taking the kids outside to play in the fresh air, but reading and doing arts and crafts inside is just as fun. I am a highly dependable and adaptable Babysitter with a lot of patience and a love for kids (as well as furry friends). I have a lot of experience with different social and emotional behaviors. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. Flexible scheduling availability. In my free time I love to watch movies, hang out with friends, eat new delicious foods, traveling, and reading books.

Hi everyone! My name is Valentina and I am a credentialed elementary school teacher looking to transition back into nannying. I have a bachelors in Psychology as well as a masters in Teaching, and was a 5th grade public school teacher from 2[removed]. Prior to that I was a nanny for many years, both part time and full time. I’ve been a full time nanny since 2023, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule that I’m hoping to fill! I'm educated in child development from infancy through teenage years and have over 6 years of experience with kids and infants between newborn all the way to school age. I am comfortable with anything between tummy time, bottle feedings, nap training all the way to homework help/tutoring. In addition, I love pets, am fluent in both Spanish and English, have a cleared background live scan check with CPR certification, and have a clean driving record. I love being able to provide families with the security that their child is safe and in good hands as well as making sure to provide an engaging, warm, and safe environment for the kids. I don't take for granted the meaningful relationships that are built along the way. Hope to hear from you all soon!

“Valentina was wonderful! She was punctual, super friendly and engaging with our kids as soon as she arrived. We'd definitely recommend her. She handled our two boys (ages 5 1/2 and 4) like a pro :)”

Hi! I’m a 29-year-old recent medical school graduate with a deep love for caring for others, especially kids. I graduated from the University of San Francisco and have spent time working at UCSF in cancer research, as well as building a nonprofit organization that I’m incredibly passionate about. I’ve had several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, including those with medical complexities. I’ve supervised up to 15 kids at a time while directing a summer science camp, provided consistent after-school care, and worked closely with families over multiple years. I also spent three years working at a tutoring center, so I’m very comfortable helping with homework and learning activities. I truly enjoy creating fun, engaging experiences for kids, whether that’s baking together, doing arts and crafts, playing sports, exploring parks, or organizing little “adventures” around the city like trips to museums, hikes, or the beach. I’ve also supported families during overnights, vacations, and special events like birthdays and weddings. I’m known for being extremely patient, dependable, and a strong communicator with parents. Most importantly, I genuinely love building meaningful connections with the children I care for and always put my whole heart into the families I work with. I’d love to connect and support your family however I can! :)

Hello! ☺️ I am a current graduate student at San Francisco State working toward a Master in Social Work. I was a full time nanny in the city prior to Covid and am looking to jump back in for occasional jobs while I'm in school. I have cared for newborns, infants, toddlers, twins, and kids as old as ten and as young as six weeks. I've also done weekend stays and overnights with families. I am BLS (Basic Lifesaving Skills) certified and comfortable around pets. Thanks for reading!
