Booked by 10 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Catalina, I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. While my first language is Spanish, I am actively learning English to improve my communication skills. I’m currently taking online English classes to become more confident in conversation. I absolutely love being around children of all ages, from infants to toddlers, and I take great joy in seeing them grow and thrive. I am a loving, energetic, and active person, and I enjoy spending time outdoors with kids—whether it’s engaging in fun activities or creative projects that help nurture their imagination. I have extensive experience caring for my cousins and friends’ children, and I also have a strong knowledge of nutrition, which allows me to ensure the overall well-being of the children in my care. I’m highly responsible, always on time, and dependable. I can drive, cook, clean, and run errands as needed.

“We’ve hired Catalina as an extra kids helper for our church’s gatherings multiple times, so we’ve had the opportunity to watch her first-hand with our kids. Catalina is on-time, kind, and responsive. She engages with kids in a naturally warm and helpful way, and communicates well with parents and volunteers, too. We'll definitely hire Catalina again!”

Booked by 84 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Shaden. I’m 29 years old, a Culinary Arts student, and I speak both Spanish and English. I would describe myself as an honest, responsible, and caring person. I have several years of childcare experience, including over 4 years working with the same family here in San Francisco, plus many years of babysitting experience back in my hometown. I started caring for their youngest when he was just 4 months old, while also helping with his older brother and sister, who were 6 and 8 at the time. Today they are 4, 10, and 12, and it has been such a special experience growing alongside them through every stage. I originally came to San Francisco as an au pair in 2022, and after completing my program, I continued working with the same family as their nanny while studying. In my free time, I’ve also completed many babysitting jobs with local families, building strong connections in the community with 100+ bookings and 50+ positive reviews. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I love creating a safe, fun, and loving environment. I can help with school drop-offs, activities, homework, meal prep, bath and bedtime routines, outdoor play, and engaging creative activities. I’m warm, responsible, patient, and energetic, and I truly enjoy helping children grow while making parents feel supported and at ease

“I highly recommend Shaden! We had a brief call to meet her the night before the booking. She arrived on time (actually a little early and she waited for the extacr time) for a very early morning booking, she was kind and professional. I immediately felt at ease with her, especially since my son was still sleeping. She drove him in her car to his camp and everything went very smoothly. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks Shaden!”

Hello wonderful San Francisco Families, With over 20 years of experience working with children ranging in age 0-12, I bring a wealth of knowledge and practical experience in early childhood development. I hold a formal education in teaching, which i have continuously applied throughout my time I support and nurture young learners. My professional journey includes roles as both a former au-pair and a full time nanny, where i developed strong, lasting relationship with families and provided attentive, individualized care for children. Throughout the years, I have been committed to helping families create supportive and enriching environments for their children to thrive. I am cpr/1st aid certified, fully vaccinated (dtab, covid, flu). I received my Masters Degree in HR management, but I have always had passion to coming back and working with little ones again. I hope you will consider my candidacy and let me help you with taking care of your little ones. Best, Mila

“Mila is the best and has a way with children where my daughter who truly does not warm up easily ran up to her after first meeting. She is loving and caring and just so grateful we found her! ”

My responsibilities have included driving to/ from school and activities, museum/ library/ parks visits, arts and crafts and help with school projects/ homework.

Currently I have a fix schedule with a couple of families and looking forward working with new amazing families either in a regular basis or occasionally. Open to last minute backup care if I’m available - i keep my calendar up to date. Happy to schedule phone/ video interviews and I do my best to keep parents comfortable while their kiddos are on my care! Thank you :)
