Hello! My name is Hendy, I’m a college student at Cal East Bay with the goal of becoming a counselor. I have over 6 years of experience working with children, in a Montessori school and babysitting for several families. My passion for kids is always loving them and being creative! I am CPR certified and a trained Medical Assistant. In addition to caring for children, I’m also happy to assist with homework or academic support, as I currently work as a tutor at College of Marin. I love pets (especially dogs!) and am comfortable with any household pets. I can also help with light cooking and household chores, and being reliable to your family’s routine. I look forward to meeting you guys also supporting your children in their growth and development. I’m very fixable! Never be scared to reach out!

Booked by 14 families in Berkeley, CA

Hi! I’m Lili, a San Francisco nanny with nearly 4 years of experience caring for toddlers and school-aged children. Families I work with describe me as reliable, warm, and someone their kids genuinely look forward to seeing. I currently work with several repeat families in neighborhoods like Pacific Heights, Cole Valley, Inner Sunset, and the Marina. I recently graduated from San Francisco State University with a degree in Political Science and a minor in Business Administration. My education, combined with years of caregiving, has strengthened my communication, patience, and problem-solving skills. I love creating fun and engaging routines for kids that balance play, creativity, and structure. Whether we’re doing art projects, exploring outside, reading together, or working on homework, I try to create an environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn. I have experience with school pickups, bedtime routines, meal prep, outdoor activities, and helping kids wind down at the end of the day. I especially enjoy working with school-aged children and helping with homework, creative projects, or practicing Spanish through play and conversation. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in Spanish, and have my own car so I can help with transportation if needed. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help families with light household support such as kids’ laundry, tidying play areas, meal prep, errands, and general organization. Families I work with appreciate that I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive to each child’s needs. I do my best to follow each family’s routines and preferences so kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care.

Booked by 14 families in Berkeley, CA

Hi parents, My name is Vlada, and I’m pursuing a degree in Child Development and Psychology. I’m originally from Russia and I’ve been living here for 10 years with my family. I started to work with kids when I was 14 years old. I started by taking care of my youngest siblings and then volunteering. During my college years thus far I have taken many opportunities to gain more experience with children. I have been working at Monitissori daycare for 4 + years and I also have experience working with special needs. As of right now I have my child development permit, first aide certificate and now working towards my teaching permit. My philosophy is that all children of all abilities should be able to grow up where their social, emotional, and educational needs are met. I love being able to work with kids and watch them grow. If you need any references please let me know, I’ll be happy to provide them :)

“Great sitter. Arrived on time, brought things for the kids, cleaned up. The kids had a lot of fun.”

Booked by 24 families in Berkeley, CA

Hi! I'm Jocelyn, a bilingual (English & Spanish) caregiver with over 5 years of hands-on babysitting experience I've worked with children from 2 months to 13 years old in a variety of settings, including in-home care, school programs, and nonprofit internship focused on food education for kids. I'm CPR and First Aid certified. I'm energetic, patient, and love connecting with each child on their level - whether that means getting down on the floor , reading the same book three times in a row, or taking stroller strolls to the park. I've cared for over 20 kiddos through Care. com and UrbanSitter and consistently nannied for families with toddlers, infants, and school-aged children. Most of the families I've worked with have had toddlers, so I'm experienced with nap time, meals, and outdoor play. I also enjoy helping older kids with homework and finding fun ways to connect. Working with children brings me joy - I love learning what makes each child unique. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting your family and providing the best care for your children!

"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."
