Arianna $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Arianna and I was born and raised in San Francisco. I recently finished my second year at the University of Denver, where I’m studying psychology. I am passionate about working with kids because I love seeing the world through their point of view and watching them grow and develop. When caring for kids, I am patient, enthusiastic, and always willing to go along with them. I have experience in caring for my younger brother as well as a family friend.

Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sophia, and I am a babysitter located in San Francisco. I started babysitting in 2025 (mainly kids 5 and above) and have worked a lot with kids in the past as a camp counselor. I am able to drive kids to and from school, and I love to connect with kids through art or non-electronic games. I am very punctual and reliable, and I am very empathetic and caring. I have learned how to navigate complex emotional situations with/between kids from my experience as a camp counselor, a skill that I bring into my babysitting, and I am going to UC Santa Cruz in the fall to study Psychology and Education. I have a background in music and singing as well. I am also an animal lover, and am happy to dog / cat sit. I am also open to house sit and act as a caretaker for seniors. I have helped out with performances for a few senior choirs in the past.

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

Hi! My name is Grace, and I am a recent college graduate from UC Santa Barbara and a new resident of San Francisco. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services to families in the area. For the past two or so years, I was a teaching assistant at a university-run childcare center, where I worked with young children ages 2–5. Beyond babysitting for family members and friends, I have also been both a swimming and rowing instructor for the past five years, which has made me very comfortable working with children ages 6–14. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and creating fun, engaging activities for them. I enjoy both art and being outdoors, so I would be happy to create age-appropriate activities that encourage creativity, curiosity, and staying active. If needed, I can also help with after-school homework and provide occasional tutoring. Additionally, I would be happy to take on household responsibilities such as running errands, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, and helping with other day-to-day tasks that make a family's schedule a little easier. I've grown up with dogs, so I am very comfortable working for a family with dogs or cats, as well as helping with dog-related tasks such as walks and feeding. I am responsible, dependable, and excited to get to know a new family and help wherever I can. I would be happy to discuss your family's specific needs, schedule, and any questions you may have!

“Grace was wonderful! She was so personable and immediately connected with my daughter, who had such a great time with her. She was reliable, communicative, and right on time, which is much appreciated! We felt very comfortable having her in our home and will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend!”

Hi Families, I graduated from nursing school in my home country and worked as a nurse for 2 years, caring for critically ill patients, also actively holding a CA RN license. I now bring the same compassion and dedication to my work as a childcare provider. Being a childcare provider, I love helping children reach important milestones. With a calm, friendly demeanor, I create a welcoming environment where kids can thrive. I have more than 3 years of experience caring for 1-2 children at a time and I am certified in First Aid and CPR to ensure their safety. I enjoy playing outdoor sports and board games with kids, encouraging both physical and mental development. I can also assist with light cooking, meal preparation, housekeeping, and supervise swimming if needed. Thank you for considering my application! Please feel free to contact me, I'm looking forward to hearing back from you!

“Wise was very sweet and friendly. Our daughter started playing with her right away, and couldn’t stop smiling. She was also punctual, asked a lot of important questions and followed our instructions. We highly recommend her! ”

Booked by 9 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! I’m a nurse based in San Francisco with 14+ years of babysitting and nannying experience. I currently work at a pediatric urgent care on the weekends. I’m looking for local families who may need occasional help for date nights, full Time/part time, weekends, or just a few hours to recharge! I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers and have been with my current family since their twins were just 3 months old (they’re now three!). I’m also happy to assist with dog-sitting, light organizing, and transportation to activities like sports practices, tutoring sessions, or even trips to the zoo! I’ve also assisted in supervising during birthday parties (ie. Extra set of eyes on the pool, and surroundings) ad well as events to keep the children entertained while still being in the vicinity of parents. I have my own reliable car for transportation needs. I am CPR-certified (infant, child, and adult), First Aid certified, PALS and ACLS certified, and also trained as a doula. I have one year of experience working in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), so I’m very comfortable handling a range of childcare needs with a calm, safety-first approach. My schedule varies slightly with my current roles, so flexibility (with notice) is important. I love building lasting relationships with families and would be happy to share my availability, experience, and references upon request. The best way to connect with me is by phone, as that’s where I communicate and rebooking with all my families. Looking forward to hearing from you! ** I typically communicate through the app but respond better via text as a lot of notifications get missed and easier to rebook** Thank You, Saoirse
