$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 30 families in Canyon, CA

Hello, dear families! My name is Bruna, and I’m 30 years old. I have a bachelor’s degree in social communication. I consider myself very open-minded, dedicated, easygoing, and proactive. I have more than 5 years of experience working with kids aged 1 to 12 years old, including special needs kids, particularly those on the spectrum of autism. I’m super patient and passionate about working with kids. I love playing and always strive to find new activities for the children, such as singing, dancing, reading, going to the library, and engaging to help with their development. I'm also a mom, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to watch your little one. I enjoy working together with the parents to provide the best care for the kids and ensure they are growing up healthy and happy. During my free time, I love cooking, visiting museums, and going to the beach. I am fully vaccinated and take COVID-19 precautions seriously, so I would appreciate the same from the family. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send me a message. I will be more than happy to talk and answer all your questions. Thank you so much for considering me. Bruna

Booked by 10 families in Canyon, CA

My name is Raine, I'm 20, and I'm based in Emeryville/Oakland! I'm a high school graduate as of 2024, and am in a course to become a Paraprofessional while working as a babysitter/nanny. I do not drive or have access to a car, but I can travel quite proficiently by foot, bike, and public transportation. Please let me know if your home is not accessible by public transit! I am available Monday-Friday, and occasional weekends. Please message me before booking to make sure we are a good fit! Some more about me: I previously have 4-5 years of experience working with kids at a Scandinavian Language School, in which I worked with kids from 2 years old to 11 years old. I additionally have experience and training with working with neurodivergent/autistic kids, and I'm more than happy to work with families who may have more complex needs. I also have many years of experience in babysitting, as well as pet-sitting and house-sitting! I am born and raised in the Bay Area, and I've been living in Oakland since the start of 2025. I'm a very creative person and love making art, and enjoy very hands-on activities. I'm both the oldest sibling and one of the oldest cousins in a relatively big family, and have found that I'm very good with kids. I genuinely enjoy working with and spending time with kids a lot, and I feel it’s a very rewarding and fun job! Thank you for considering me :)

"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."
