Booked by 19 families in Canyon, CA

My names is Stephanie, and I love working with children because seeing them learn to explore, grow and have fun brings me so much joy. I’m caring, patient and I love creating a space where kids of all ages can feel safe and be themselves. I’m very responsible and compassionate and fully committed on supporting families in their different needs. I’ve been nannying for about 9 years now, and it’s more than just watching kids, I truly enjoy being around them, engaging with them, seeing how their brains work and grow. Children bring so much happiness and I love to help families experience that with out the stress of having to worry about child care. I’m new to this app, but have a lot of experience behind me. The children I have been nannying for are getting older, entering school, and the family doesn’t require me full time any more, so I’ve decided to look into longterm and short term care for others. I’d love to be considered when looking for help! Please reach out if you have any further questions!

“Stephanie was amazing! Our daughter was immediately at ease with her, and it was clear how attentive, patient, and caring she was. She was very engaging with her throughout the day and my daughter really enjoyed spending time with her. She was also communicative and dependable, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely love to have her back and would highly recommend her to other families!”

My name is Claudia and I am 36 years old. I was born and raised in Colombia.While I was in Colombia free I took care of my little cousins in my free time. I would bathe them, feed them and played with them. Some weekends after school, I took care of my neighbors kids while they were at work. I would help on their homework, and also on school projects. We would do little arts and crafts activities once a week. I have experience with twins, triplets. I am currently taking care of 2 years old twins during the week, until middle on November.

Hi! My name is Wendy. I’m a 24-year-old Oakland native (turning 25 this year) with over 5 years of childcare experience and a deep passion for supporting children and families. I am also a proud mom to a six-month-old baby, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and understanding of how important trust and communication are when caring for someone’s child. I recently completed two years as an AmeriCorps Student Support Specialist at an OUSD elementary school, where I provided behavior support, social-emotional support, and math interventions for students ages 4–12. I worked closely with teachers, administrators, and school psychologists to help students feel supported and successful. Following that role, I worked at Lodestar High School supporting students with diverse and more intensive behavioral and academic needs. That experience strengthened my skills in behavior management, de-escalation strategies, structured routines, and individualized support. I bring many years of babysitting experience through UrbanSitter, caring for children ages 1–16, along with hands-on newborn experience through my extended family and now as a mother. I am fluent in English and Spanish and come from a large extended family, which has shaped my nurturing and adaptable personality. I am committed to creating a safe, structured, and loving environment where children can thrive. I prioritize clear communication with families about routines, meals, and expectations because I understand that every family has unique parenting styles and needs. In addition to childcare, I also have experience and offer house sitting and pet sitting services for cats and dogs. I also have a background in housekeeping, so maintaining a clean and organized home is always part of my care. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and rock climbing and staying active outdoors. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, thoughtful care for your children and home.

"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."
