Alisha $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Alisha, and I’d love the opportunity to help your family. I have five years of experience working in schools with younger children, and as one of six siblings, I’m very familiar with managing different moods, busy schedules, and unexpected situations. Early mornings, cooking breakfast, and keeping things running smoothly are second nature to me. I’m currently working toward my CNA license and I’m trained in basic life support. I’m comfortable with meal prepping, light housekeeping, and picking up the kids—as long as you’re okay with me taking the bus for now. Just a quick note: I’m afraid of cats, but dogs are completely fine with me. For personal reasons, I’m not vaccinated, but I’m more than willing to take a weekly COVID test and wear a mask if that makes you feel more comfortable. I’d truly love the chance to help if you’ll have me. References: Jazmana Yarnway +1 [removed] J’ella (415) 573-9664

Jniya $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m a naturally nurturing, patient, and dependable caregiver with real hands-on experience raising my own four-year-old daughter and providing in-home care for my elderly grandfather. I’ve always been the person family and friends call when they need help with children, and I’ve supported kids of all ages, including children with special needs. I’m calm, understanding, non-judgmental, and easy to work with, which helps kids feel safe and comfortable around me.

Vanessa $30 per hour for 1 child

Hey families! My name is Vanessa, I’m 20 years old and I’m a Spanish and English speaker. I’m currently a student at San Francisco State University, majoring in Child Development and Psychology. I’ve been caring for kids since I was 14 years old, starting with my younger cousins and my 5-year-old brother, who I helped look after while my parents worked. Making meals, putting them to bed etc. Besides that, I’ve also gained experience working at two daycares, and i have experience working as a teacher and supervisor at my church. I’m also employed as a Behavioral Technician for kids who have autism. Through all these experiences I realized how much I love helping kids learn, grow and feel supported. I really love and enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality playing games, doing creative activities, helping with homework, or simply listening to them and what makes them happy. My goal is to build trust and connection, so your kid feels safe, cared for, and understood when they’re with me. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and create a fun, nurturing environment for your kids!

"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."
