Lauren $30 per hour for 1 child

Experienced, kind, and flexible support looking to provide part or full time care (20-40 hours per week) in Berkeley/East Bay while I work on a part-time neuroscience project. I'm active/outdoorsy, creative, and nerdy--I love engaging children of all ages in the fullness of what's happening now! Available for work while my primary family is out of town June 22-June 27. Please note that my hourly rate may adjust for temp/ad hoc care. Recent references available. I grew up raising my eight younger siblings in an unschooling/off-grid environment, nannied school-aged children in undergrad, and have been heavily influenced by Maria Montessori, Rudolf Steiner (Waldorf School), and Fred Rogers. One of my early goals in getting to know your family would be to understand your ethos and preferences, and support them--I've worked well with many family structures and nurturing styles. I believe strongly in empowering children to be attuned to their instincts and environments, play/explore within healthy boundaries, and to treat themselves and others with respect and care. TLDR on logistics: I’m comfortable helping with cooking, chores, errands, pets, the pre/postpartum periods, and other items as needed—happy to discuss the scope of what you’re looking for. I live in Berkeley near downtown and have my own car.

Booked by 1 family in Canyon, CA

My name is Erika and I am currently working as a on call Medical Assistant at Kaiser. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I speak English and Spanish. I love taking care and working with kids. I worked as a afterschool staff for 5 years and I worked as a Pediatric Medical Assistant for 7 years. And also did babysitting for 1-2 years. My responsibilities have included walking and driving to/from school, tutoring, soccer and dance lessons. Also assisting with homework, snacks and playing indoor/outdoor activities. I can also work as a household assistant with cleaning, running errands and other tasks. I have been a caretaker for my grandmother and am comfortable with senior care. I can drive to appointments or do other tasks needed. I own a Maltipoo myself and am willing to care for dogs or families with dogs.

“Erika went above and beyond. She noticed the baseboards were dirty and she cleaned those for us without being asked to. She also stayed later to finish her tasks which was very kind of her. Highly recommend!”

As a childcare provider with over a decade of experience, I am passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles have solidified my love of caring for children and inspired me to make a positive impact on their lives. I believe in fostering a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow. With my patient and calm demeanor, I am able to create a harmonious atmosphere for children to thrive. I pride myself on open and honest communication with parents. I provide regular updates on their child's day and promptly address any concerns that may arise. I am also comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a structured and safe environment for the children in my care. My love for children extends to a variety of fun activities. I enjoy engaging them in outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that stimulate their minds. In my free time you'll find me either on a hike, or country line and swing dancing!

Judah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi Families! Im Judah and new to this app! I have over five years of experience working with children in a variety of settings, including private preschools, community centers, nurseries, Montessori programs, and summer camps. I’ve worked with kids aged 1-12 and have a strong background in both religious and non religious based childcare. I'm also in the process of starting my own home daycare, which I’m really excited about! I’m currently studying Psychology and Early Childhood Development, with plans to become a child psychologist. I now teach as a substitute preschool teacher and hold long-term sub positions at schools across the Bay Area. I love getting to know each child's unique learning style and finding the best way to support their development. I’m passionate about using play-based and nature-inspired learning to foster emotional, social, and creative growth. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, arts and crafts, reading, and cooking. I look forward to connecting with your family and helping nurture your child’s growth.

"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."
