Hello local families! 😊 My name is Karla, and I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) caregiver based in San Francisco. I’m currently available for occasional and temporary childcare support while I continue my studies toward becoming a doula. I have experience working with children in different settings, including as a preschool teacher assistant in Hawaii and as a nanny/babysitter here in San Francisco. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where children can feel supported and confident. I enjoy keeping kids active through outdoor play, nature activities, park outings, and creative play, while also supporting routines, organization, and positive habits. I’m reliable, warm, and attentive, and I bring a calm presence to both children and families. I’m also CPR/First Aid trained and happy to provide strong references. ✨ Available for: • Occasional babysitting • Temporary/short-term support • Flexible weekday availability Thank you so much — I’d love to connect and support your family!

I am the ultimate babysitter because I am a mother myself! If anyone knows what kids love, It's me. I know how to cook, play pretend, play tag, hide and seek, visit the local swimming pool, swim, teach swimming, read favorite books, take lots of pictures, bird watch, go on day trips, visit museums, the zoo and the list goes on. Being a kid at heart really helps to connect with children. I rarely meet a child who doesn't like me!

Hello! I'm an experienced, reliable private nanny living in Pleasant Hill and currently seeking a part-time position. I'm happy to travel throughout Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Danville, San Ramon, Dublin, Alamo, and surrounding areas. I'm available to start immediately after losing my wonderful nanny position due to a scheduling change that required a live-in caregiver. As a mom of three and a proud grandma, caring for children truly comes naturally to me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including 12 years supporting children with special needs. I'm warm, patient, dependable, fun, and engaging. I love being part of a child's daily life—reading stories, playing games, spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, helping with learning through play, and creating routines that help children feel secure, confident, and excited to learn. I believe children thrive when they feel loved, encouraged, and have fun every day. I have excellent references, a valid driver's license, very reliable transportation, and a current CPR and First Aid certification. Getting children safely to and from school, sports, activities, appointments, and playdates is never a problem. I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, children's laundry, and helping keep your family's daily routines running smoothly. My rate is $27–$40 per hour, depending on the position, schedule, and responsibilities. At this time, I am seeking a private-pay position and am happy to discuss a rate that works well for the right family. I'm hoping to find a long-term family where I can build a lasting relationship and become someone both parents and children can count on. I look forward to meeting my next wonderful family!

Hello! I’m Sathiya, a cheerful, dedicated, and detail-oriented nanny, babysitter, pet sitter, and family assistant originally from Bangkok, Thailand, now happily based in San Francisco since 2019. With over 10 years of hands-on experience raising my own children and more than 4–5 years in professional caregiving, I specialize in nurturing, patient, and attentive care for children of all ages including newborns. I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and engaging environment where little ones can thrive. My clients consistently describe me as trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful, and many are happy to recommend my services. I’m currently open to occasional evening (after 6 PM) and weekend roles. Along with childcare, I’m also available to assist with pet sitting, house sitting, and household management from keeping things tidy and organized to managing vendors or overseeing home maintenance. I genuinely enjoy helping families run their homes smoothly and efficiently. I bring professionalism, kindness, and care to everything I do, and I believe in creating calm, supportive systems that make family life a little easier. I’d be happy to provide my resume, references, background check, and vaccination records upon request. Looking forward to connecting and supporting your family with warmth and excellence! Warmly, Sathiya

Hello! I'm a dedicated childcare provider with over 25 years of paid experience, specializing in infant care and children from first grade and up. As a mother to a wonderful 20-year-old daughter, I understand firsthand the trust parents place in caregivers, and now that my own child is grown, I'm excited to share my passion for nurturing young minds. My previous family trusted me for 16 wonderful years until their children outgrew needing care, which speaks to my reliability and the meaningful relationships I build with families. I'm comfortable with all aspects of infant care including feeding, diaper changes, and sleep routines, and I love engaging elementary-age children with homework help and age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and creativity. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel secure and happy while maintaining open communication with parents about their child's day. My extensive experience means I can handle any situation with confidence and calm, and I'm committed to respecting each family's unique parenting style and household rules. I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your family's needs and would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss how I can support your childcare needs. References available upon request.
