Hi, and welcome to my profile. I'm originally from Iceland and have lived in Walnut Creek for 16 years. I raised my three girls here and welcomed a grandson 2.5 years ago. I would love to help families part-time in the area with their daily chores, including helping with children, light household, and pet sitting, part-time or occasionally. I have extensive experience with children and being a nanny, as well as caring for the elderly, and raising my own kids. Friends and family describe me as patient, kind, engaging, a good listener, and calm. I'm creative. I love art, reading, music, cooking, nature, and sports. I'm a non-smoker, absolutely no drinking or drugs - ever. I have my car and I'm flexible and don't need too much notice if needed. I look forward to connecting. Thank you!

My experience includes babysitting for parents i've met through jobs i've had in the past, friends & through this app. I've babysat throughout the summers & done after school care as well. I've also been working as a paraprofessional at a school here in Oakland for the past 2 years. I enjoy working with children and find it an extremely rewarding experience. I always make sure to take great care and exercise all precautionary measures to ensure the safety of the children. I feel that I have all of the necessary qualities that make a good babysitter. I am very respectful and will adhere to your house rules and also remind your child(ren) of the rules if needed.

“Ezmeralda did a fantastic job with the twins and keeping them entertained. She was very patient and engaging, and the kids loved her. Thanks! ”

"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."
