Hello, I'm Maura. I'm 32 years old, I live in Oakland CA. I'm a very responsible, honest, kind and very patient person. I'm very dedicated to my work. I'm very flexible. I have experience taking care of children and babies. I'm certified in CPR. I speak Spanish and a little English. I really love taking care of children very well. I care about their well-being. I have my own vehicle and I have a valid California driver's license. I really enjoy going out outdoors with the children. Make their days dynamic and happy. I give a very safe environment to children. I like to play and make dynamics according to their ages. I really care that the children's days are very nutritious and positive. I like to work with families and adapt to their needs. I am very flexible to their opinions. I like to help families with their routines such as light cleaning, tidying
“Maura has managed to care for our 1 and 3 year old at the same time without issue. She integrated into our family smoothly and quickly which was very helpful as these transitions can take time for some. She is very intelligent, I was impressed how she caught on quickly to our Elimination Communication (EC) routine with our youngest and helped keep all of that progressing. Maura would take them to the park each day for 2-3 hours so they had a lot of time outdoors which we love, plus she has a lot of energy to keep up with them! She is very capable of all the usual expectations like food prep, cleaning, pottying and nap times. Very respectful of our family values and requests (no screen time, etc.). Most importantly to us was the extremely warm and tender way that she cared for our children, we will never forget that. The children adore her. Our family in no longer in need of routine childcare but we hope to stay in touch with her, as we have all enjoyed the relationships that were established. Maura is truly a gem, and during a time where it’s incredibly difficult to find quality caregivers we feel so lucky to have found Maura.”
I’m a caring, dependable mom who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would want for my own. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and love creating fun, age-appropriate experiences for kids. Whether it’s an active day at a local park, playing outside, getting creative with crafts and watercolor painting, reading, or enjoying a quiet activity, I’m happy to meet each child where they are. I can also prepare basic meals, help tidy up, and I’m a big animal lover, so pets are no problem! Most importantly, I want parents to have peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, cared for, and having a genuinely good time while they’re away.
Hey Y'all, my name is KeAra, and I've been babysitting for almost a decade. I have worked with all ages and have experience with special needs children, specifically autism and Down syndrome. I currently work as a paraprofessional aid in a special needs classroom, and with school being out, I am available for full-time work. I do not drive nor have a license!! I also have experience with pets, and am willing to do light housekeeping duties
“KeAra was an excellent babysitter to my two little girls for a little over 4 years. I knew her mother from work, and when I needed a babysitter, she, of course, recommended her daughter. My youngest child, 6 when KeAra started and 10 when she left, has severe nonverbal autism, and my other daughter, 8 in the beginning and 12 in the end, is protective of her little sister and not so kind to strangers. KeAra was quick to connect with them both through her kindness and gentleness, and was able to follow boundaries that I had set, and was never upset when I mothered hen'd a couple of times when she was sitting. As the years went on, she stayed kind, professional, consistent, and engaged. My daughters had many phases through those years, and at times those interests were completely conflicting, but KeAra handled them like a pro. Through tantrums, meltdowns, and changing communication styles, she even learned sign language for a couple of months to help with Ari. She never lost her cool and had great instincts when dealing with all of it. My one con is that she didn't drive, because that would've been a tremendous help, but I can say she was always punctual. I can't recall a time she was late in the 4 years I worked with her. She did outings all the time with my girls, and I always knew they were in good hands. I can not recommend a better person than KeAra for anyone who is looking for a babysitter. She is dedicated to learning about a family and a child and how best she can help. She is calm, energetic, flexible, and all around an amazing person.”
Hello - my name is Angela, and I recently moved to the Bay from South Texas. I’m an experienced caregiver and educator with a background in youth programming, education, and nonprofit work. I’ve worked with children of all ages as a YMCA lead teacher, Parks and Recreation after-school counselor, culinary center teacher, and tutor over the past 10 years. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to provide pet care and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and breeds. I am an experienced Rover sitter and dog owner and am comfortable taking them on walks or hanging out with them in your home. I’m also available to assist with senior care including meal preparation, errands, light housekeeping, and transportation to appointments. My goal is to create a safe, positive environment where children, pets, and older adults feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I look forward to getting to know your family!

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
