A little bit about me
My name is Sterling and I was born and raised in SF! I am currently working as a full-time nanny, and specialize in caring for infants between the ages of 2-12 months. I enjoy utilizing Montessori methods through play-based learning, and am knowledgeable on the topic of baby-led weaning + sleep training as well. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, and have also nannied for sets of twins.
My goal pertaining to the children I work with, is to foster as much confidence + independence that I can within them. I recently began studying RIE (Resources for Infant Educarers) and implement those tools with the infants that I am working with. I also enjoy utilizing baby ASL, as a way to foster independence and communication between myself, and the child that I am working with.
I would love to hear what you are looking for in a potential nanny/ sitter and see if we'd be a good fit!

A little bit about me
Hello! I am a senior at SFSU majoring in child development. I have experience as a full time preschool teacher (teaching and working with children in general is my passion) and I absolutely utilize my knowledge in Early Childhood Education in my time spent with children. Aside from teaching preschool, I also have experience as a nanny for children ages 2-13. Some of my nannying duties have included helping the children practice tracing and writing their letters and numbers, assisting them in putting together fun puzzles, making sure they get plenty of outside time when the weather is nice, as well as preparing dinner, bath time , and I’ll always make sure to leave the kitchen and other areas used cleaner than I found them. I look forward to any future opportunity! Thanks so much for reading! :)

A little bit about me
Hello dear family,
My name is Agnes, I am from Brazil, I'm able to speak Portuguese and English.
I've lived in San Francisco since January 2006, (I currently live in the Excelsior district), I came to USA as an AuPair, after finishing my program I decided to stay I've always worked as a nanny and babysitter since then taking care to all the ages. In my most recent job I used to work to them for 10.5 years for 2 twin brothers and the only reason I had to leave was because of the pandemic and also the boy was about to finish there high school in this summer so probably I wouldn't stay with them anymore anyway. Beside that, I used to work on weekends to an autistic boy for 4 years and I stopped to work to him for the same reason, pandemic. So, I also have experience with special people and that wasn't my first job like that, I used to take care to spacial needs before.
I have drivers license and I have no problem to work with pets.
I look forward hearing from you.
Best regards,
Agnes
