Booked by 2 families in Alta, CA

My name is Christelle, and I am 21 years old and have 5+ years of babysitting for friends and family. As one of eight siblings, I have extensive experience with children. I love engaging in activities with kids, such as playing at the park, doing arts and crafts, and enjoying other outdoor activities. Being the fourth oldest, I have spent a significant amount of time caring for my younger siblings. I genuinely enjoy being around children. Additionally, I have strong skills in household chores—I can clean anything and cook as well.

Christelle exhibits outstanding qualities in handling small children. I strongly recommend employing her.

Hi! My name is Erin. I am 39 years old. I have 4 children and 2 dogs. I have been working with babies, children and families since I was 15 years old. Professionally I have been a nanny, house manager and a caretaker for last 20 years + (along with a few other business’ I started- I owned a cloth diaper service, lactation cookie company, meal prep service etc). I currently work in the Tahoe area as well as the Bay Area (San Francisco, Napa, Walnut Creek, Mill valley). I have worked with several families short and long term ranging from newborn preemie twins starting at 2 weeks old and up! I have experience being a night nanny with single babies and twins. I have a passion for healthy cooking and very knowledgeable on different styles of eating. I enjoy working with families that can benefit from meal prep, a healthy dinner and/or starting your day off with a healthy smoothie! Or maybe a cheese board or soup when you arrive home after a long day on the slopes! I am happy to grocery shop and run errands (with or without your kiddos). Even for the occasional date night positions, I’d be happy to prep a breakfast for the next morning while the kids sleep! I went to school for nutrition/health coaching, as well as EMT school. I am medically knowledgeable and confident handling emergency and medical situations. I am comfortable working with children with special needs as well as mental health conditions. While I was living in Los Angeles I went to school to be a midwifery assistant and worked in a birth center for a short time as an assistant and post partumn doula. In my free time I enjoy being outside, camping, paddle boarding, biking, cooking, swimming, basically anything outdoors. When I come to your home or hotel I bring age appropriate games, crafts, and activities! When I work regularly with families, have a long day and/or a lot of kids at once, I like to create a lesson plan for the day with structure and fun, which will usually include physical activity and a craft/cooking/science project, lots of reading, etc. I look forward to working with your family!

Hi! My name is Lauren, I am 34 years old. I'm an experienced nanny of 10+ years and can connect you with further references upon request! Beyond childcare, my background is in mental health care. I have worked at therapeutic boarding schools, youth crisis homes, foster care, etc., and have CPR, first-aid (recently refreshed June of 2025) and crisis intervention certifications. I am a former competitive swimmer and lifeguard and am extremely comfortable in the water! I love art, and enjoy doing crafts and playing outside, but I am always open for whatever you and your kids are most comfortable with! I am happy to bring an activity to do with your kids if you let me know ahead of time what they are into. I have the most experience in nanny care with toddlers and babies, and field experience in the aforementioned therapy and school settings with young children, preteens/teens. I also have experience with children with special needs. Please reach out and let me know if you'd like to set up a phone call or FaceTime to chat more! :)

"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."
