Ashlyn 5 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Albany, CA

Hi there! My name is Ash, and I offer child care, pet care, and household support services. I’ve been babysitting for over 10 years and have experience with children of all ages from newborns and infants to toddlers (including twins!) and older kids. During college, I provided consistent and reliable care for two wonderful families, one for over 3.5 years and another for 2.5 years. My responsibilities included school and activity drop-offs, meal prep, laundry, reading, bathing, arts and crafts, and creating fun daily routines. I also have experience providing extended overnight care for 24-72 hours while parents were away for work or travel. In addition to child care, I have worked as a household assistant, helping with meal preparation, grocery shopping, errands, and household organization. I take pride in being dependable, kind, reliable and attentive. I love creating a safe and positive environment where kids can have fun, learn, and feel cared for. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

“Ash is the best!”

Booked by 9 families in Albany, CA

Greetings families! My name is Samantha but you all can call me Sam. I have been a career nanny for 10+ years. And have experience working with newborns, infant, toddlers, and older children all around. Plus, a background with children diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. I am transitioning to being a postpartum doula and newborn care specialist. Currently in the process of becoming certified with DONA International by the end of 2023. Am mom to a pitbull mix doggo and a domestic short hair kitty. :)

“Sam was wonderful! She was prompt, professional, an excellent communicator, and she was terrific with my young toddler. I had never had a sitter before so I was incredibly nervous but I felt immediately comfortable leaving my kid with Sam. She updated us via text to let us know how it was going. Sam listened closely to any instructions I left, and followed them closely and respectfully, and let me know each thing was clear and understood. She was terrific playing with my toddler and I'd be thrilled to book her in the future.”

Chaima 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Chaima, a creative, responsible, and energetic professional based right here in San Francisco. I love bringing positive energy and a sense of fun to the families I work with! With a background in running my own small online business and I am a student at CCSF, I am highly organized, punctual, and know exactly how to multitask with a smile. But what I enjoy the most is keeping kids actively engaged! I’m very passionate about photography and art, so I always prefer hands-on creative activities, crafts, or outdoor adventures over just screen time. I’m also multilingual! I’d love to share a fun, multicultural vibe with your little ones. Whether it's a date night or daytime help, I'm here to make sure your kids are safe, happy, and entertained. I can’t wait to meet your wonderful family!

“Chaima is an amazing worker and an amazing person. I worked with Chaima as a barista at a cafe - she brought so much positive energy to our team and our customers. She was like working with a rainbow, so thoughtful, kind, and full of sunshine, lifting up everyone around her. As a worker, she anticipated all of our needs without ever being asked to do anything. She’s one of those people who just magically knows how to be helpful. Tasks you thought you had to complete are done before you know it because Chaima surprised you by completing them.”

Booked by 3 families in Albany, CA

Hi there! My name is Shanel. I have experience with all ages as I’ve worked in daycares and worked with many different families who have had children of different ages ranging from 0 to 15. I also have a lot of experience with children who have mental or physical disabilities. My responsibilities thus far having been driving, homework help, crafts/indoor activities, outdoor activities, overnight help or babysitting, preparing meals, bottle feeding, bedtime routines, changing diapers or bath time and hosting play dates. I’ve also done live in care for over two years. I’m able to offer senior care, pet care and household care/errands as I’ve taken care of both my grandparents and have had many different pets of my own. I can cook, clean, do laundry, drive, organize etc. I am CPR certified and a non-smoker. I have my California drivers license, I also have my own car.

“Shanel was everything we needed in a babysitter. She regularly cared for our younger son from age 4 months to 1 year. She was reliable, efficient, and most importantly, very caring and nurturing to our son. She did everything from bottles and nap time to solid foods and activities for his development. She would sometimes care for our 4 year old son as well, and could manage both very well. She has no problem getting down on the floor to read, play, talk and sing. We would use Shanel again and highly recommend her.”

"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."
