Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, CA

My name is Bailey and I am 24 years old. I have been babysitting since I was 13 and enjoy interacting with kids. I have a very outgoing personality which means that children tend to open up to me very quickly. I am capable of cooking meals, cleaning, or running errands. I'm an adventurous person and can take the kids to the beach or out on walks. Making children feel loved and nurtured is what I love to do. I'd be more than happy to lend a helping hand to a family who is in search for a trustworthy and helpful individual. I recently graduated college in 2022 with a Hospitality and Tourism Degree. I value taking care of others and would love to help your family in anyway I can. Please feel free to message me.

Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, CA

My name is Yonka and I am from Bulgaria. In my country I was a teacher for 20 years. Besides Bulgarian and English I speak Russian and a little bit French. Here I’m a babysitter/nanny/mother’s helper. I love kids, I have three grandchildren. My life is being surrounded with children. As a babysitter I follow the requirements the parents have. Strong communication is a must. With the little ones I go for a walk every day, to the library and parks, reed books, create stories, sing, do arts. I maintain the kid’s area clean and organized. It’s not a problem to do the laundry or load/unload the dishwasher. As a mother’s helper I clean, organize, do the dishes, including hand washing and laundry (fold and put clothes back, vacuuming.

Wren 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Wren I've been caregiving for pets, kiddos, people with social needs, and seniors my whole life! I started petsitting when I was 8 years old, and nannying when I was 11. I worked with seniors with dementia while in school to get my degree in social work, and worked as a full time social worker for years until I realized I prefer a varied schedule and hands on caregiving. I am very artistic and creative and love doing art with kids or special needs adults. I also love organizing and interior design to help make a space work for a persons individual needs. Thank you for considering me!

“Wren has done a great job sitting for my two cats. I have one indoor and one outdoor and I always feel at ease leaving them in Wren's care. The cats have grown to love Wren, as well! I definitely recommend Wren as a reliable, thoughtful sitter.”

Booked by 8 families in Berkeley, CA

Hi! My name is Alma I’m from France, and I speak French and a little English. I love spending time with children and helping them learn and grow every day. In France, I got my BAFA diploma, which is a certification to work with kids. I worked in a recreation center with children ages 3 to 8, where I organized fun activities like painting, outdoor games, and small theater shows. I also helped during snack time and made sure every child felt included and happy. I’ve done a lot of babysitting, from newborns to older kids. For example, I often take care of babies feeding them, changing diapers, and putting them to sleep and I enjoy helping toddlers discover new things through songs, stories, and play. I’m calm, patient, and responsible, but I also bring a lot of energy and creativity. I love reading stories, doing crafts, cooking simple meals, or going to the park. I can also help with light cleaning or organizing around the house if needed. I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for every child I care for. Parents describe me as reliable, kind, and always smiling. I would be happy to meet your family and give your children the best care possible

"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."
