Nicole $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Nicole and I am a freshman at UC Berkeley looking to provide childcare services in the area. My experience: All throughout high school, I’ve worked during the summers at a speech and debate camp, where I was responsible for a group of around 10 fourth- and fifth-grade students for half of each day. My role included leading activities, supervising lunch, keeping kids engaged, and teaching confidence-building public speaking skills in a fun, age-appropriate way. I value helping children grow and learn responsibility while making sure they feel supported, safe, and entertained. I’m dependable, organized, and comfortable managing multiple children at once. In addition, I’ve helped supervise groups of children at birthday parties and small gatherings, allowing parents to relax while knowing their kids were safe, engaged, and well cared for. This has given me experience managing energetic group settings, maintaining safety, and keeping activities fun and organized. Skills: Group supervision in informal settings Age range flexibility Behavior management & engagement Structured + unstructured time management Communication with parents Responsibility & trust Educational enrichment Russian language Additionally, I am fluent in Russian, I’ve spoken it my entire life, attended formal classes since age 3, and earned a 5 on the National Examination in World Languages, so I’m happy to support bilingual households if helpful. I absolutely love caring for kids, and would be honored with your trust to help you out and keep your kids safe and happy. I’m happy to meet in person beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit, and I can provide references upon request. My rate is flexible and negotiable based on hours, duties, and your family’s needs, feel free to reach out and we can talk about what works best!

Parisa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Parisa. I’ve been babysitting for about two years, and I really enjoy spending time with kids and helping families feel at ease while they’re away. I’m a patient, calm person, and I try to keep things light, warm, and fun for the kids I look after. I have experience with basic daily routines like feeding the kids, keeping them entertained, and making sure they’re safe and comfortable. I can also handle pick-ups or drop-offs when needed. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I try to make every child feel cared for and listened to. If you’re looking for someone steady and kind who genuinely enjoys being around kids, I’d love to help.

"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."
