Sienna $45 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sienna and I've been nannying for over ten years. I grew up in Boston, where I worked in the infant room at Epiphany School caring for babies from one month up to eighteen months, so bottles, naps, diapers, and tummy time are all second nature to me by now! I've also spent plenty of time with older kids over the years, so siblings are always welcome company. I moved out to San Francisco about a year ago and live in Pacific Heights. I recently transitioned out of a role in private equity, which means I have a lot more free time and flexibility than I used to - I'm excited to put it toward something I've always loved doing. I'm patient, warm, and a big communicator; you'll hear from me during the day and get the full rundown at pickup. I went to Dartmouth College and I'm starting business school at Stanford in fall 2027, so I'm in the Bay Area for the long haul and would love to find one family to get to know and help whenever I can. Outside of work, you'll usually find me biking, hiking, or trying new restaurants around the city. Infants are my favorite age, and I feel lucky that this is the work I get to do. I'd love to meet your family!

Booked by 4 families in Berkeley, CA

Hello, my name is Ginna , I’m 32 years old, and I live in Pacific Heights. I have over seven years of experience caring for babies and toddlers, including nanny share arrangements, and I’ve had the joy of working with several wonderful families across the Bay Area. I’d be happy to provide excellent references upon request. With kids, I love planning engaging activities—playgrounds, walks, libraries, museums, and play dates if possible! I’m very familiar with local spots like Lafayette Park, Alta Plaza, Broadway Park, and Moscone Park, where little ones can play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can grow and learn. I enjoy helping families establish routines that are not only consistent but also fun and educational. Families usually describe me as punctual, communicative, easy to talk to, honest, and reliable, which helps build a smooth and positive relationship with both children and parents. I’m bilingual (English and Spanish) and can naturally incorporate Spanish into activities if parents would like. I also help with children’s laundry, cleaning bottles, tidying toys, light meal prep, and other small tasks that support the family routine. I am CPR and First Aid certified, hold a valid driver’s license, and always bring patience, warmth, and a positive attitude to the job. I’d love the opportunity to meet your little one and learn how I can support your family. Best regards, Ginna

“Ginna was great with our 3 month old. Punctual, kind, and very experienced. ”

Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, CA

Hi! My name is Angie, and I’m 29 years old and based in Oakland.💗 I’m currently looking for babysitting and nannying opportunities throughout the East Bay. I have childcare experience from helping care for my younger siblings from the newborn stage as they grew up, along with a few babysitting jobs here and there. I’m patient, caring, dependable, and attentive, and I really enjoy creating a safe and comfortable environment for children. I’m also a pet caregiver through Rover 🐾 , so I’m very comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets in the home. I’m currently pretty flexible with my availability and open to occasional babysitting, date nights, on call care, or a more consistent schedule. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if I’d be a good fit!💕

"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."
