Booked by 3 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Valentina. I’m a Chilean-certified Early Childhood Teacher and Montessori Guide looking for extra babysitting, nannying, light household duties or pet care opportunities during the week and/or on weekends. I have over 5 years of experience working with children, as well as excellent recommendations from families I still keep in touch with today. I recently renewed my CPR certification for both children and adults. I’m very punctual, organized, responsible, and active. I love creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment for children, and I’m also happy to help with light household duties, such as tidying up, meal prep, or organizing things. As a vegan and animal lover, I would also be happy to be considered for pet care roles. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions

“It has been a pleasure working with Valentina and having her in our home. Not only is she punctual, but our little ones look forward to seeing her. Cannot recommend enough!”

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Francisco, CA

I’m the middle child of six, so moderating sibling conflict is something I’m extensively familiar with. This also means I have a ton of nieces and nephews, so I’ve had experience with children from infants up to high school. Arts and crafts are my jam! Anything artsy is right up my alley. I’m also reasonably good at most ball sports (don’t ask me to surf though; it’s not pretty) and like the outdoors. I’m a hands-on learner, so I try to impart any academic lessons in a fun, participation-oriented way to keep kiddos engaged. I’m also an experienced housekeeper, cook, and pet sitter (I’m a current cat servant -iykyk- and grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, sheep, lizards, and horses).

“Cody was great. The kids had lots of fun with her. ”

Hi, my name is Gislaine. I’m originally from Brazil and 46 years old. I am a responsible, dedicated childcare professional with extensive experience caring for newborns, twins, and toddlers, available for weekdays, weekends, and evenings. I specialize in creating engaging, fun, and developmentally appropriate activities that support children’s growth and learning. I am CPR certified and trained in sleep routines, and I hold certifications as a Postpartum Doula, with additional training in Montessori methods and lactation support. I am also happy to assist with light housekeeping and organization related to the children, helping to keep the home running smoothly and minimizing parents’ workload. I am fluent in Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, and English, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in International Business. As a mother of two sons whom I raised on my own—both now college graduates—I bring not only professional experience but also deep personal understanding, patience, and care. I truly love working with children and would be happy to support your family.

“Gislaine responded to a last minute request to babysit when my daughter got sick and I couldn't be at home for the full day. When she came to the house, she asked great questions, played with my daughter, and comforted her. She was very responsive throughout the day and sent me updates. I plan to have her come back tomorrow.”

Booked by 3 families in San Francisco, CA

a mother myself, I bring both personal understanding and hands-on experience in caring for children of all ages. I truly enjoy engaging kids in meaningful ways-whether through reading, painting, games, outdoor activities, or simply supporting their daily routines with patience and care. Families describe me as loving, reliable, and attentive. I'm also highly organized, a strong multitasker, and always punctual. Beyond childcare, I'm a dedicated yoga practitioner, naturally caring, and an animal lover. With excellent references available, I am confident in my ability to provide a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment for your children.

“Jessica is INCREDIBLE. She’s a mother herself and so taking care of children is natural, intuitive, and she genuinely loves and cares for kids. She handled the full morning routine for my 3 kids when I was out of town, including driving them to school, and knocked it out of the park. We’ve had her support multiple times since. She is warm and lovely to be around. Jessica is truly a gem!”
