Natalia 3 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Nati :) I am an experienced childcare teacher who brings energy, warmth, and imagination to every family I work with. I’m currently a full time preschool teacher— I work primarily with 2’s and 3’s. Thus, I’m thoroughly experienced with multiple children at once!I’m also experienced with infants and older children! I'm a Yale student taking a gap year, which gives me the unique opportunity to dedicate my time to doing what I love most—working with kids! I am very artsy, love to read with kids, and am super-super playful!I believe in fostering a positive and supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow. My time at Yale has also taught me the importance of curiosity and critical thinking—qualities I aim to inspire in the kids I work with. My other experience: I grew up in a home with young children and have babysitted since I was 13 years old. I have three years of professional experience working as the Youngest Campers Lead (ages 4-6) at Steve & Kate's Camp (a day camp) during the summer and winter breaks. When I’m not working with children, I love baking, reading, and going on hikes. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified and skilled at managing busy schedules. I love to clean, cook, and play at the same time! I know that managing kids can be a handful, and I'd love to help you in any way I can!

“Very professional! Natalia was so great, she was very prompt, reliable, and caring. I would recommend Natalia to anyone with an infant because she’s very knowledgeable about what to expect according to their age and development (at 9 months of age in my case), and was very optimistic and positive. She was very empathetic and operated exactly according to my needs! ”

Nicole 3 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a teacher taking time off this year to pursue some personal projects! I’m looking for a bit of flexibility in my schedule, but quite available for last minute needs. I taught PK and 6th grade ELA in the Bay Area for the past 6 years, worked abroad for the 3 before that, and coached swim and nannied through college. I love sports, the outdoors, and the arts. I’m most passionate about building confidence and independence in the kids I work with. And I’ll always encourage curiosity and play.

“Nicole is great! She worked in education and is great with my young kids--plays games, does art, reads and is a pro at bedtime. Nicole is kind, patient, reliable and great with kids.”

Donna 5 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in San Francisco, CA

I am a mother of 2 kids ages 10 and 6. I work in education as a special education paraprofessional for over 10 years. I’m among elementary students 5-11 years old everyday. I have very good communication techniques with kids. I’m very knowledgeable of kids needs and wants. I know many strategies when working with elementary school age children. I am able to connect to children. I had a cat for 19 years. She currently lives with my parents because we moved. We recently got a dog as well. I am good with pets as I grew up with a cat. I’m fun, and able to connect with kids. I love board games, card games, building legos, coloring, and doing puzzles. I am CPR certified. I look forward to connecting with you. I’m looking to pick up some jobs on the side for some extra income. I look forward to meeting you!

“Donna helped out on a last minute request after another sitter backed out. She was on time, friendly and easy to work with. We would absolutely work with her again. Thank you, Donna!”

Juabidun

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello there! My name is Juabidun, and I have been babysitting for about 10 years now! I have primarily babysat my 3 younger siblings from when they were newborns, but I am also trusted with my cousin’s and aunt’s children. I can change diapers, feed children, and bathe as well (children who are able to stand and are potty-trained). I love being able to talk with children and watch them grow because I can see the next generation of people thriving in front of me. I also love to hear the ideas of young children about what they care about, believe in, and their future hopes. My biggest belief is that when taking care of children, being the most patient version of myself is crucial because these are beings that are still learning and growing. They deserve love, affection, and attention in order to become the best versions of themselves. In addition to these things, I am capable of doing light house-keeping/chores and am open to running small errands as well. I hope that I can be a great candidate in your babysitter hunt :)

“Juabidun was amazing with our 10 month old when he had a fussy evening. We would definitely hire her again!”

Booked by 4 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello, my name is Madison! I just finished my degree from SFSU studying Sound Design and Audio Production. I have an Associate’s Degree in both Communication and Film. I have almost ten years of nannying/ babysitting experience, working with kids from 1 month to 12 years. I have always had a passion for working with kids and have gained all of my experience working with families in LA. I come from a background of working with kids in various artistic fields. I was a dance instructor for ages 3-10 and a teacher’s assistant for a fashion illustration class for ages 7+. I love to incorporate art and creativity whenever I can with the kids! My past jobs have also included prepping meals and snacks, driving to school and activities, tidying up, prepping art projects, and epic dance parties!

“Madison was lovely. Got along so well with our daughter and would highly recommend her.”
