Sarah $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a Bay Area native with 7+ years of childcare experience and a strong background in both caregiving and healthcare. I nannied for a family for 2 years (ages 4 and twin 7-year-olds) and have cared for children ages 2-13 since high school. I also spent 3 summers running a camp at a country club, where I created daily activities, managed staff, and supervised 25+ children at a time, as well as teaching swim lessons. I'm CPR certified and a certified medical assistant (MA), and I currently volunteer at a hospital twice a week. I'll be starting my Master's in Nursing this fall after graduating from UCLA with a degree in Psychology. I'm responsible, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment where children feel supported, safe, and genuinely enjoy their time.

"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."
