Jermyiah $20 per hour for 1 child

I have work as an Elementary teachers assistant for the last two years. I’m currently in the process of receiving my para educator certification. I love working with kids I find that I can communicate with them very easily using not only the tools i’ve learned from past jobs but with some of the tools I’ve learned through my younger siblings who have communication disabilities. I can take small pets such as dogs and cats. I also help coach a rugby team so I think i’ve been able to master patience and understanding with anyone honestly.

Booked by 2 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Lola, and I love working with kids of all ages. I have over 5 years of experience babysitting and as a substitute preschool teacher caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’m responsible, patient, and energetic, and I always make sure the children I watch are safe, happy, and engaged. I enjoy spending time outside, doing arts and crafts, and having dance parties! I am also happy to help out with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I love dogs and cats, and I’m also an EMT and CPR certified. I’d love the chance to support your family and provide a safe and fun environment for your kids! Best, Lola

“Lola was quick to answer! She arrived on time and my baby felt super calm with her. My dog loved her too! I’m looking forward to continue working with her.”

Samantha $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Samantha and I am currently a 25 year old nursing student! I'm a caring and dependable sitter who truly loves spending time with kids! With babysitting experience going back to my teen years (plus lots of auntie duties with my nieces and nephews!), I bring tons of enthusiasm, patience, and creativity to every sit and have genuine love for what I do. I'm big on keeping kids engaged with fun activities or adventures, and since I'm a huge Disney fan, I always have something to connect with the little ones over! 🏰 I grew up with pets my whole life, so your furry family members are in great hands too! Whether it's dogs, cats, or both! Beyond childcare, I'm also available for: • 🏠 House sitting • 🐾 Pet sitting • 🧹 Household chores • 🛒 Errands And for your peace of mind, I am BLS/CPR certified, so you can feel confident your family is safe and cared for while you're away. I'd love the opportunity to work with your family!

AnnieElizabeth $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a responsible and caring 32-year-old with over 20 years of experience in childcare, pet care, senior care, and household tidying/management. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old, and I was a nanny for about 5 years to four kids who were ages 2-9 when I started working for them. I love deep conversations and interesting facts, and have experience with neurodivergent and highly intelligent kids. I provide a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment, helping kids learn about and grow in the world in their own unique ways through outdoor exploration, dance, reading, crafts, museums, and imaginative play! I also love animals and have a lot of experience in pet care. I have a degree in psychology, including coursework in child development. I also have my 200-hr yoga teaching certification, am in a 300-hr yoga therapy training with a lot of nutrition knowledge, and am about to go back to school (in the Bay) to become a nurse. My cpr/first aid certification expired in Jan 2026, but I am happy to renew if requested.

Lee $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Lee. I’m new to San Francisco and looking for some part-time work while I continue teaching. I currently work part-time as a preschool teacher at a Reggio-inspired school in the Mission District. I bring 4+ years of experience in early childhood education, including my time at Patagonia’s Truckee River Child Development Center in Reno, Nevada. My background is rooted in child-led learning, creativity, and nurturing warm, secure relationships with young children. I’m patient, reliable, and very tuned in to children’s emotional needs. I love helping little ones build independence, explore through play, and feel safe and celebrated. I’d love to support your family with gentle, attentive care and fun learning moments.
