Madessa $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Madessa. I'm a loving and gentle caregiver with a true passion for working with children. I've spent one wonderful year as a preschool teacher and two years as a child caregiver. I have taken Early Childhood Education courses at CCSF. The children I've worked with always hold a special place in my heart. I'm so lucky that many families from my preschool days still keep in touch and ask me to babysit. I'm calm, patient and tuned in to each child's needs. Safety and trust are very important to me. I always bring a kind, attentive and responsible presence into the home. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping to keep things running smoothly. I truly love what I do and I look forward to meeting your little one :)

Yasmin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Yasmin and I’m a freelance Caregiver. I’m looking to give your child the patience, understanding, and care they deserve. I have experience in seasonal daycare work, drop off/pickup, housekeeping, and animal care. Though I’ve only recently started in professional childcare, the joy I’ve felt from working with young ones has left me determined to immerse myself in the profession. I have experience working with children between the ages of 4 months- 5 years old. I’m interested in working with children of all ages and all developmental stages. Outside of work, I’m passionate about working outside in the garden, nature-based crafts, handiwork, and making creative seasonal and foraged meals. If you feel this aligns with your child and their schedule, I’d be more than happy to share my passions in whatever way you see fit. Thank you so much for taking the time to read, and I’m looking forward to talking!

Seylin $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Seylin. I have several years of experience supporting families through dependable childcare and household assistance. I began babysitting in high school and later coached a children’s soccer team, gaining experience working with children across different age groups while maintaining structure, safety, and positive routines. I also participated in a school mentorship program, where I guided younger students to remain academically focused and make positive life choices. Additionally, I volunteered with children with special needs, assisting with reading, daily activities, and supervised campus outings. I offer babysitting and nannying services, including school pick ups and drop offs, age appropriate activity supervision, and homework support. I also provide pet care, including walking, feeding, and companionship, and I am experienced with dogs of all breeds and sizes. In addition, I am willing to assist with errands, light cleaning, organizing, and general household support as needed. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to maintaining a safe, respectful, and well organized environment for children, pets, and families.

Saidi $30 per hour for 1 child

I have a strong background in caring for children and supporting seniors with patience, compassion, and respect. As a mother, I have hands-on experience caring for my child, understanding children’s needs, creating a safe environment, and supporting their emotional and educational development. I have also helped care for my elderly family member, which taught me the importance of kindness, attention, and dignity when assisting seniors. My qualifications include experience in hospitality, customer service, and working with people from different backgrounds. These experiences helped me develop strong communication skills, responsibility, organization, and the ability to stay calm in different situations. My personality traits that make me a great caregiver are being caring, patient, reliable, trustworthy, and a good listener. I pay attention to details and I always try to make people feel comfortable, respected, and valued. My talents include connecting easily with people, providing emotional support, helping with daily needs, and creating a positive and safe atmosphere. I believe caregiving is more than just helping someone—it is about building trust, showing compassion, and making a meaningful difference in someone’s life.

Olivia 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Olivia, I'm 24 years old, and I am a nurturing, compassionate, and grounding caregiver with many years of experience in caring for people ages 18mo - 22yrs. After two years at a University as a Developmental Psychology major, I decided to pursue a career in mental health care. I work with both neurotypical and neurodivergent children and adults, and I quickly adapt to each person's needs as I get to know them better. I love engaging and playing with children in fun and educational ways, and aiding in the growth of children and adults with different neurological, sensory, and developmental needs. I have a lot of patience, respect, and imagination, and I love to encourage imaginative play! I find it most rewarding when children are positively impacted by their community, and when they show progress in their natural environments! I have worked in schools with all different variations of special education and programs, and I take nanny jobs during the summers and holidays. Though I work in schools, I am open to being a full-time nanny for the right family, and I'm always open to one-time gigs! I would love to meet you and your family and see if we're a good match!

“So patient and accommodating, our two little ones would not stop raving about how much fun they had with Ms Olivia!”

"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."
