A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Ruth! I’m a 13 year old San Francisco native! I’m a student-athlete, and very trustworthy! I have over 5+ years working with kids and babysitting, so I’m sure I can be a reliable asset to your children!

I prefer to work early mornings, from 4:45am to 8:40am on weekdays when I have school! I can try to squeeze in time in the evening when I have school also. On the weekends depending on my availability, I can take care of your child from 7:00am-whatever time is needed. Please note that I can’t stay up super late on school days to help take care of your kid because I need to study. But, I will definetly try my best to exceed your expectations! Please be willing to be flexible! During the summer, I can work from 5:00am-6:00pm or later if we discuss it first! I prefer one-time opportunities, such as taking care of your kid/pet during a night out for dinner. But, I can certainly work out more days if my schedule is free! I’m working to raise money for my family! Thanks!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Juliana and I’m a caring and responsible babysitter with two years of experience. I started working with a wonderful family when their baby was just 10 months old, and I’ve loved watching him grow! In addition to that, I occasionally babysit for other families during date nights, caring for children aged 5, 7, and 8. I speak English, Portuguese, and a little Spanish, and I always bring patience, reliability, and positive energy into every home. I’m available for evening shifts and, depending on the day, I’m also open to overnight care. I look forward to supporting your family and helping your little ones feel safe, happy, and loved!

"We love Juliana! Juliana watched our almost one year-old for a year. She was incredibly attentive, took him to the park, and for walks and outings daily. She followed nap and feeding schedules, was incredibly flexible when it came to changes and scheduling. We’ve had her house sit, watch our dogs, even drive us to the airport. She’s always up for a new challenge. She loved teaching our son Portuguese, pretty sure some of his first words were ciao and pao de queijo. As a bonus, she’s very tidy and helps keep the house organized which makes a huge difference with little kid chaos. We wholeheartedly recommend her."

"I’m writing to recommend Sarah Dorval for a position of babysitter or nanny. Sarah was my go-to sitter when she was living in Massachusetts from April through September of 2021. During that time, Sarah frequently cared for my one year old son when I needed to attend meetings, medical appointments, run errands, or to have a date-night with my husband. She has proven to be punctual, reliable, and flexible, as there were a few times she came through for me on very short notice. More importantly, she is fun, loving, attentive, and energetic. My son absolutely adores her. Although housekeeping wasn’t a particular part of our arrangement, I did take notice of her tidiness and it was always greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Sarah’s services and truly believe she will make a positive impact on your children and family. You would be lucky to have her. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 978-551-4402 if you need more information regarding her abilities and our experience."
