Isiah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Isiah — a firefighter/EMT in San Francisco and someone who genuinely loves working with kids. I’m active, social, and full of positive energy, and I bring that same attitude to childcare. I’ve spent years helping families with everything from after-school care to weekend babysitting, including experience with kids on the spectrum. I’m big on creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment — whether that’s playing outside, building Legos, going to the park, doing crafts, or making up silly games that keep everyone smiling. As a firefighter, I’m also very active, love going on little adventures, and enjoy keeping kids engaged with movement, imagination, and conversation. I’d love the chance to support your family, bring good energy into your home, and make your child’s day brighter!

Amiannah $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amiannah, and I'm a recent UC Berkeley graduate with degrees in Psychology and Social Welfare. I am offering child care, tutoring, pet care, and household support services. I love working with children and have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children through babysitting, tutoring, mentoring, and after school programs. I've also volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters and tutored students through community based programs. My responsibilities have included feeding and meal preparation, bedtime routines, educational activities, homework help, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and creating a safe and supportive environment for children to learn and grow. Through my Psychology degree, I specialized in child development, which has given me a strong understanding of children's social, emotional, and cognitive growth at different ages. I enjoy helping children build confidence, explore their interests, and have fun while staying safe. In addition to childcare, I can help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, organization, errands, and pet care. Families describe me as patient, reliable, organized, and easy to communicate with. I look forward to supporting your family!

Hello! I’m Celia Gutierrez – your warm and reliable bilingual nanny! I’m based in San Leandro and have been caring for children since 2019. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English, and I specialize in working with newborns, infants, and toddlers. Caring for children isn’t just a job for me—it’s a true passion. I love creating joyful, nurturing environments where little ones feel safe, supported, and happy. Every child is unique, and I take pride in learning their routines, interests, and needs. I help maintain consistent schedules, keep play and rest areas tidy, organize toys, and plan fun, engaging activities—from arts and crafts to outdoor play and nature walks.

"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."
