CURRENTLY NOT TAKING ON NEW FAMILIES (April 2025). If you would like to be considered for July or later please reach out (: Hello Parents and Kiddos! My name is Dr. Jenna Hall and I have recently moved to San Francisco (January 2025) after obtaining my PhD in Melbourne Australia. I have just started a job at The UCSF Mission Bay Campus (April 2025). After a 3 month unemployment stint, in which I used SitterCity to meet a number of amazing families to help me fill the time, I feel I am at capacity for weekly help, especially when the demands of my job ramp up. However, if you are looking for an occasional babysitter please still reach out! A bit about me: I am originally from New Mexico where I started babysitting at 12 years old for the neighborhood kids. I moved to Albuquerque for college (Go Lobos!) and Read more continued to find families and babysit throughout my undergrad journey. After completing a degree in Biochemistry I moved to New Jersey and taught high school chemistry through Teach For America, so I learned many fun (and at-home friendly) experiments to run with children! I then spent 4 years at a stem cell lab in New York where I babysat periodically on evenings and weekends through Sitter City (that's where my previous reviews on this site are from). In Australia I found a few families early on through an Americans in Melbourne FB page and Care.com, and I babysat for them throughout my PhD! Ideally that is what I am looking for in San Francisco! I am hoping to find a few families that need a sitter a few times a month for date nights or weekend errands (3-6 hour stints). I'd love to find a family with babies and/or toddlers and be a consistent sitter for you over the next few years! I really enjoy babysitting. All up I've babysat for over 20 years. I've done it in every place I've lived! I am so happy to provide references or have a ~3 hour in person session while you are present and I interact with the children to confirm it's a good fit. I love to be outdoors, explore museums, take walks (although my calves are already burning trying to explore this city!!!), snowboarding in the winter and and playing soccer (although a knee injury last year has kept me from getting back on the field). I do not have a car yet but I do have a license and willing and able to drive if that's what you require! Really looking forward to finding a few families to start a long-term babysitting journey with! Reach out! Thank you!
