Almarah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Almarah and I just graduated from Muhlenberg College with a B.A. in Media and Communications and Theatre. I am offering child care, dog care, and household tasks. I've been working with children since 8th grade, when I began tutoring Sunday School at my synagogue for elementary schoolers. I tutored all throughout high school, where I developed a passion for caring for children, as well as gaining experience in curriculum development and planning activities for children. I've spent a few summers as a camp counselor for children ranging from kindergarten through middle school and am very comfortable with any children in this age range, though I'm willing to care for younger kids as well! I spent last summer driving 12-24 middle schoolers around the bay, so I'm happy to bring your kids to any activities or classes they've got planned! I can cook, clean, do laundry, and run errands. I have the most experience in dog care but am open to working with other pets if I seem like the right fit your family!

Brissa Nicole $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Atherton, CA

I have 8 years of experience caring for children, with a strong background in infant and toddler care. I began my childcare experience caring for babies and later spent five years working in a preschool, primarily with 2-year-old children. This experience helped me develop a strong understanding of early childhood development, age-appropriate activities, daily routines, and creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. As a nanny, I am patient, loving, responsible, and dependable. I enjoy creating meaningful activities, encouraging children’s independence, and making their daily routines fun and positive. My goal is always to provide children with a safe, caring environment where they feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn and grow.

Rebecca $28 per hour for 1 child

I earned my degree in Communications, but some of my most meaningful experiences have come from working directly with families. I have several years of experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and I enjoy helping with everything from daily routines and homework support to planning fun, creative activities. I’ve also cared for pets and seniors, so I’m comfortable balancing different responsibilities in the home. What I love most about caregiving is the opportunity to build trust and provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can feel supported and encouraged. I bring patience, dependability, and a positive attitude to every role, and I find it rewarding to know that I can make parents’ lives easier while giving children a fun and caring experience. On a personal note, I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and trying out new recipes in the kitchen. Families I’ve worked with would describe me as warm, dependable, and someone who truly enjoys being part of their children’s growth and happiness.

"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."
