We have known Liliana for quite some time. We first met her when our son was three years old, and he is now 15 years old. She served as a babysitter for us for quite some time, including driving our son around the city for a different Sports practices. We have good things to say about Liliana. Now we are using her more for tasks around the house, as our son does not need a babysitter any longer. We, recommend Liliana without reservation. She’s very communicative and trustworthy. We can rely on her to house sitting while we’re gone as well. She’s definitely great with kids and very creatively entertaining them as well. Highly recommend her.

Kristi E., Nanny in Foster City, CA 94404 with 14 years of paid experience

I’m a warm, grounded caregiver who focuses on helping children feel truly seen, safe, and understood. My approach is rooted in mindful communication, emotional awareness, and creating a calm, consistent environment where children can explore, express themselves, and build confidence. I support early communication and independence through tools like baby sign language, offering choices, and guiding children through big feelings with patience and empathy. I value play-based learning, outdoor time, creativity, and simple daily routines that help children feel secure and engaged. As a mother, I bring a deeply attuned and intuitive presence to my work. I understand how important trust, consistency, and emotional safety are in a child’s development, and I approach each family with care and respect for their unique rhythm. I have experience caring for children from infancy through school age, including supporting siblings, managing routines, and creating engaging, screen-free days filled with play, learning, and connection. I aim to be a steady, positive presence that feels like an extension of the home. I offer a flexible rate range depending on the level of support needed and am always open to a thoughtful conversation about what feels aligned for both the family and myself.

I have ten years of experience caring for children. I have a passion for this work because I know how important it is to support children during their most formative years, being a mother myself. I want families to feel like I am there for them and there for them to feel comfortable with me. I look forward to hearing from you so we can discuss my experience and how it would fit in to accommodating your needs. Thank you for your time and consideration.

We have had the pleasure of working with Sharon, who has helped care for our two children—a three-year-old daughter and a sixteen-month-old son. She is incredibly attentive and caring with both kids, and they absolutely like her. From the moment she arrives, they are excited and run to her for hugs. She engages with them through play, singing, and reading. Sharon is also very proactive and dependable. She notices what needs to be done and is always willing to step in and help. Communication with her is smooth, and she is respectful of our routines and preferences. Her positive energy and genuine love for children give us peace of mind when she is with them.

I’m a thoughtful & caring nanny who has 8 years experience. I adapt quickly into most situations. I love kids & wish I’d have had 5 instead of 2. I’ve worked with newborns, infants, babies & toddlers up to age 15; with 1 child & as many as 4 children at a time. I offer fresh & nutritionally balanced meals & snacks. I handle sleep training if needed, pick ups, drop offs & general household assistance depending on your needs. I maintain kid’s pantry, grocery shop & run errands. I bring age appropriate developmental activities, indoors & outdoors. For example: swimming, mini golf, baseball, beach time, & developmental activities like art, reading, computer, math, legos, & constructive free play. I believe in outings to the parks, museums, movies, & beaches. I’m seeking a great families who need a hand. I am Covid protocol compliant including my vaccines and booster. My varied experience, judgement, patience, energy, education, fitness, & love of play based learning is a great contribution to the right family! Thanks! Lynn - [ ]

Hi! My name is Sage - I’m currently a theatre teaching artist in the SF Bay Area looking for families to connect with as a sitter, nanny, family assistant, tutor - whatever you need! I've been working with children since my early teens and have been a babysitter, nanny, and event caregiver for children as young as two months to children as old as fourteen. I am CPR certified and have first aid training, and am fully COVID vaccinated (with regular boosters / updates to vaccinations). I have my own vehicle and am pet friendly as well! I love fostering and encouraging creativity in children through music, dance, storytelling, and arts & crafts, and especially love games that support that development. I specialize in musical theater (I’m a performer and music/dance/drama teacher!) I look forward to reaching out to families in the area and connecting! Please feel free to contact me for references.

Sage was very friendly, responsive and on time. My child reported that she was not very engaging with her, claiming allergies made her tired. My child is very easy to play with, so this was surprising.

Brenda B., Nanny in Foster City, CA 94404 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello my name is Brenda and I am a Latina female. When it comes to being a sitter I love every part of it. Especially having the opportunity to see the personality of the child, and the amazing person they become while providing a safe, fun and caring environment where they feel safe to be theirselves. All while helping them have an environment to grow while fulfilling the family’s needs. A little about me: I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am currently learning ASL (American Sign Language) and am studying to major in nursing. I previously have taken care of kids ages 8 months - 9 years old, and I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified.
