Carol $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Carol, and I am a compassionate, dependable, and hardworking caregiver with over 6 years of experience. I worked for 5 years as a Nursing Assistant in Colombia, caring for seniors by assisting with personal care, mobility, companionship, meal preparation, and daily activities. During the past year, I also cared for two children, a 6-month-old baby and a 5-year-old, providing a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I also have professional experience cleaning homes and am happy to help with housekeeping, laundry, dishes, organizing, and meal preparation to keep your home clean and comfortable. In my free time, I worked as a dog walker, so I am comfortable caring for pets, taking them on walks, feeding them, and giving them plenty of attention. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, organized, and caring. I always treat every child, senior, and pet with kindness, respect, and genuine compassion.

Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

Hi! My name is Kate, and I offer childcare, household support, and pet sitting. I am an experienced and reliable babysitter with several years of childcare experience. I have cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, including multiple children at once. I assist with school routines, educational support, creative activities, and daily care. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable helping with cooking, cleaning, dog walking, and errands. I take pride in being organized, trustworthy, and attentive to each child’s needs.

“Kate was a terrific sitter for my 3- and 5-year-old boys. When she arrived she immediately engaged them in activities and was so enthusiastic and attentive. She also kept an open line of communication throughout the day, keeping me updated via text- which I really appreciated!”

Hercy 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello. My name is Hercy and I am an experienced nanny looking for my next family. I am also open to occasional babysitting jobs as well. I have worked with children of all ages, from infants to elementary school age. I have been a nanny for just one child and also done nanny shares with up to 3 babies at a time. I have experience caring for children with special needs and health issues, such as asthma. I truly love the children I take care of. I take the role of nanny very seriously. I am CPR trained and responsible. I can help to establish routines, potty train, and nap train. I prepare healthy food for babies and toddler, if needed, and also clean up any messes the children make. I love to play, sing, and take children on adventures. I have an open mind and am always willing to learn more. I hope I can hear from you soon.

“Hercy is a wonderful nanny and has been a blessing to my family. She took care of my son from age 1.5 to age 3. She also cared for my daughter during this time, who is currently 8 years old. Hercy has treated my children like her own and truly loves them. She offered nurturing and stimulating care, with lots of educational outings and opportunities to socialize. She created a routine for my son, cooked nutritious food for both of my children, helped keep the house tidy, and even fed and walked my dog when needed. I especially like that she gave my kids her full attention, with lots of games, songs, and books in both English and Spanish, and did not spend time on her phone when she was with them. Hercy also went out of her way to celebrate holidays, bring over new toys, and even planned birthday parties for my son. I didn't expect any of this, it is just the type of loving care that she provides. If you are looking for a caregiver who truly loves children, is very experienced, and has an impressive work ethic, I encourage you to contact Hercy.”

"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."
