Rahel 1 review
$40 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping others and creating a safe, positive environment. I have experience caring for children and understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, consistency, and clear communication with families. I’m responsible, organized, trustworthy, and comfortable helping with daily routines, meal preparation, light household tasks, transportation, and keeping children engaged in age-appropriate activities. I also have experience working with people from diverse backgrounds and always treat every family with kindness and respect. Safety is very important to me, and I am HIPAA and Bloodborne Pathogens certified. Families can count on me to be reliable, compassionate, and attentive to their individual needs

“Rahel is my aunt. I am currently staying with her. She is very caring and clean as well. Her strongest trait is her compassion and how she is very attentive to everyone around her. She is a mother as well and my cousin is very well taken care off in every way. She is also balanced and organized as she is very effective in setting and making sure her son is productive. She is also receptive to suggestions and consistent in her work. I strongly recommend anyone in consideration of her service to not even think twice.”

Hi! I’m Neelu— I have experience caring for children in creative, educational, and home environments, with a background in Montessori learning. I’ve worked with children ranging from toddlers to elementary age and am comfortable supporting full evening routines, including meals, bath time, and bedtime. I bring a calm, attentive, and nurturing presence, and I enjoy engaging kids through art, outdoor time, creative play, and age-appropriate learning. I value creating a warm, structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore. My experience includes: • Montessori teacher’s assistant (Rising Star Montessori) • Childcare for multiple age groups • Cooking simple, healthy meals • School pick-up/drop-off • Arts & crafts, tutoring, and creative activities I’m also happy to assist with light household tasks like tidying, cooking, and errands as needed. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy building positive, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I look forward to connecting with you!

“Neelu is one of the most dependable, thoughtful, and caring people I know. She has a natural ability to connect with children through patience, creativity, and genuine attentiveness. Kids tend to feel comfortable around her very quickly, and she does a wonderful job creating a calm, engaging environment where they feel safe and supported. She's responsible, communicative, and always follows through on her commitments. Whether helping with activities, meals, bedtime routines, or simply spending quality time with children, she brings warmth, kindness, and a positive attitude. I would feel completely confident recommending Neelu to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring caregiver.”

Kaia 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a recent UC Santa Cruz graduate with a degree in Psychology. I’ve always loved working with kids, and during college, I gained hands-on experience at a daycare where I learned how important patience, safety, and fun are when caring for children. That experience, along with my studies in child development, inspired me to start this babysitting service. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, play, and grow. Whether you need a sitter for after school, weekends, or the occasional night out, I’m here to help. I’m also planning to go into healthcare, so caring for others is a big part of who I am. My goal is to create a safe, happy environment for your child—and peace of mind for you.

“Kaia has always been great with kids. She has babysat for cousins, and through her school, kids ranging from 2-14 while she was in high school. In college, she worked in the childcare at her local gym as she worked towards her psych and human development degree. She is reliable, on time, uses common sense and critical thinking, and builds rapports with kids easily.”

Tenzin 1 review
$40 per hour for 1 child

I'm a loving and patient nanny with over 12 years of experience caring for children from diverse backgrounds. I'm Tibetan born and raised in India and fluent in three languages, I focus on nurturing each child's unique personality with kindness and respect. Guided by my Buddhist values, I create a safe and positive environment where children feel loved and can grow at their own pace. My naturally friendly, patient, and creative personality allows me to connect easily with kids, creating a safe, warm, and engaging environment where they can thrive. I believe in open and honest communication with parents, and I'm always happy to provide updates in the way that works best for you-whether it's a quick text, a detailed conversation at the end of the day, or anything in between. I respect and follow household routines and rules while also encouraging children to explore their independence and express themselves freely.

“Tenzin is one of a kind and I have interviewed almost all of the nannies on urban sitter including on sight trial days with about 150 of the higly rated nannies. I am not kidding, I am very picky when it comes to child care... She is full of compassion, empathy and kindness. She comes home with full of positive energy every single day. She is very smart, emotionally very stable, she is extremely patient with kids. She makes every moment a fun, engaging and memorable moment with her creativity, positivity. She is full of positive energy. She turns tough moments into fun moments, It is hard to explain her greatness with these simple words... The world needs more people like Tenzin. If every child had a caregiver liked Tenzin the world would thrive!!! Tenzin makes exceptional expected. She is a baby charm, child magnet or what ever you call... She worked with us for 2 years, she raised my son with really good manners, she taught my son English and she raised my baby girl putting a lot of effort not to even make them get upset, not even close... Let your child meet her, spend time with her, it will make a huge difference, your child deserves this experience, it is much more full filling and much more fun then the Disneyland ;) I am surprise I am the first one to write her a review here on Urbansitter, she is very humble to ask for a review...”

"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."
