April $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m April! I am a single mom to a beautiful 3 year old. Our babies are precious and sacred, if entrusted to my care, I promise to take care of them as I would my own baby! I enjoy taking care of babies/children. I have taken care of infants as a babysitter also from ages 5-10. I have also been a TA in a summer program to children from ages 6-13. I like to do makeup, play music, spend time with family and exercise in my very limited free time! I am BLS certified and have a genuine care for other human beings. For this reason I am completing pre reqs for nursing (currently doing child development course which is so insightful!) im hoping to go into pediatric nursing later on. I’m also fluent in Spanish. I’ll be thrilled and happy to hear back !

Booked by 2 families in Alameda, CA

Hi! My name is Olivia, I am 23, and I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Neuroscience passionate about promoting children’s cognitive development. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and have experience watching younger school age children (around 4-5 years old). I have volunteer experience watching groups of children at a time for church activities. I have two years of experience watching both cats and dogs. My family has two cats of our own and I have dog sat for young and elderly dogs. I can house sit, take care of plants, and do household tasks such as cook, clean, and run errands.

“Olivia was great! Both my boys warmed up to her quickly and they enjoyed her. They don’t like every sitter, so happy they both liked her from the start. ”

Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

Hi families! I’m an experienced nanny currently looking for a full-time position. I have a strong background caring for infants and toddlers. I’m formally trained and educated in RIE and hold a bachelors degree in child psychology, which has deeply shaped my caregiving philosophy. Through my RIE training, I focus on respectful, attentive caregiving that supports children’s natural development. I believe in giving children space to explore, move, and learn at their own pace while providing a calm, secure, and predictable environment. I prioritize connection, communication, and treating children as capable individuals. I enjoy creating simple, engaging days that include outdoor time, reading, conversation, and plenty of opportunities for independent play and discovery. I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to each child’s unique temperament and needs. Families I’ve worked with value my calm presence, strong understanding of infant and young children’s development, and my ability to build trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Danielle $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Danielle when I was in high school I would volunteer at daycare/preschool and I would be in 6 month- 2-year-old classes. Which would typically involve managing their high energy levels, supporting their developmental milestones, and providing a safe and stimulating environment while understanding their unique communication methods. I also was a nanny for 1-year-old triples two years ago for more than a year but unfortunately I had to leave them when I started college. Working with infants and toddlers at a young age helped me go into college wanting to purse a path of Child Adolescence as my major.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
