Hello! My name is Al'leesha, and I've been dedicated to childcare for 10+ years, supporting children and families with a blend of compassion, structure, and professional expertise. I am currently a Mental Health Counselor, and I specialize in social-emotional development, behavior support, and helping children feel seen, safe, and understood. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. Throughout my career, I've worked in classrooms, homes, after-school programs, and therapeutic settings-giving me a deep understanding of how to meet children exactly where they are. What truly fuels me is my passion for working with kids. I love creating nurturing, fun, and emotionally supportive environments where children can learn, grow, and express themselves confidently. Families describe me as patient, reliable, intuitive, and someone who genuinely cares about their child's well-being and development.

Hi, my name is Ania! I’m a responsible, dependable, and caring individual based in the Bay Area.

Lauryn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lauryn and I recently graduated from Arizona State University with 2 Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice! While being a student at ASU I was a full time nanny for child for 2 years. I watched him grow and develop from 2 months old all the way to 2 years old! When I had free time on the weekends I often would watch other children as well, and build close bonds with them. In my free time I enjoy doing hot yoga, watching reality TV, and hanging out with friends! I’m also CPR certified!

Sienna $45 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sienna and I've been nannying for over ten years. I grew up in Boston, where I worked in the infant room at Epiphany School caring for babies from one month up to eighteen months, so bottles, naps, diapers, and tummy time are all second nature to me by now! I've also spent plenty of time with older kids over the years, so siblings are always welcome company. I moved out to San Francisco about a year ago and live in Pacific Heights. I recently transitioned out of a role in private equity, which means I have a lot more free time and flexibility than I used to - I'm excited to put it toward something I've always loved doing. I'm patient, warm, and a big communicator; you'll hear from me during the day and get the full rundown at pickup. I went to Dartmouth College and I'm starting business school at Stanford in fall 2027, so I'm in the Bay Area for the long haul and would love to find one family to get to know and help whenever I can. Outside of work, you'll usually find me biking, hiking, or trying new restaurants around the city. Infants are my favorite age, and I feel lucky that this is the work I get to do. I'd love to meet 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."

"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."
