Booked by 56 families in Colma, CA

My name is Maria. I am from Colombia and have been in the states working with families and kids of all ages for the last seven years. My first language is Spanish. I taught myself English and am now conversational — and always pushing myself to learn more. I love kids. I consider myself a person who learns very fast, is responsible and punctual. I’m happy to roll up my sleeves to be helpful to my families. I am a trained nurse in Colombia and I bring my knowledge of health and warm bedside manner to caring for the kids I work with. I look forward to supporting you and your families!

“Maria was able to help out on a very short notice with our baby when we needed some additional coverage over weekend. She was punctual, caring and professional. Highly recommended! ”

Hi, I’m Alejandra, I have a degree in physical education, recreation and sports. I have more than 6 years of experience working with children. If you are looking for a reliable caregiver who will create a friendship and good connection with your children, I will be more than happy to meet your family! About me I am seeking to provide all my knowledge in childcare. I am affectionate, loving, and sweet with them. I love doing recreational activities with children according to all my learning in pedagogy. Each experience is important and unique in children's childhood. I love doing indoor activities such as painting, dancing, creating imaginative games, playing house, tea, making tents, puzzles, tile games, and many more activities according to their ages. I also love to complement the day with outdoor activities, going to the playground, scooters, sports, soccer, basketball, volleyball, tennis, skateboards, riding a bike, exploring nature, walking, taking them to activities, bubbles, chalk on the floor, hide and seek, etc. • I would like to help you with all the children's chores, such as washing clothes, preparing meat snacks, cleaning toys and playrooms, and washing bottles. • I’m experienced in bathing, feeding, and ensuring their daily routines are handled with care and attention. • I’m CPR/first aid certified, • I have my vaccines up to date • driver’s license. • I love pets.

“Alejandra was wonderful with our toddler from the moment she arrived. We recently had our first paid interview with Alejandra. She was kind and warm, quickly getting down on the floor to play animal puzzles with our toddler. Her creativity shone through as she introduced different ways to play with the play food kitchen. Alejandra kept our little one thoroughly engaged with a coloring activity and reading books. Alejandra was also proactive during lunch and made the nap time transition smooth and easy. Our toddler even said 'night night 'Jandra' as she said her goodbyes, which melted our hearts. The time flew by as she kept our toddler entertained, allowing us to focus on reorganizing our house. We will definitely be hiring Alejandra again for babysitting!”

I’ll be happy to answer any of your questions. My life was full of small stories, as I was born with a “setting” in my mind, that I would love to understand what life is about in general. And I learned what is most important and why. One of the most important things (better to say values) is a good supportive atmosphere in a family, which I do with all my effort trying to keep in my family and will be putting not less effort to keep it in yours. I worked in IT for 10 years, before my youngest daughter was born. She is 17 now, finishing high school. Last 15 years (before we moved to California from Chicago) I was working in 2 derections. I was organizing art, music events and was working on a concept of “kid’s club” - informal studying, where kids would be able to see where is their natural potential, their inner strengths are. I’ll be happy to work with your kids and do my best to help them to develop what they can do the best, while to keep developing other strengths. Looking forward to hear from you. I was born in Belous (we speak Russian at home). My family immigrated to US in 1989. I was at the age of my youngest daughter

“Yulia has been amazing with my 2-year-old! She's deeply caring and brings the best energy to every visit. What I appreciated most is how independent and proactive she is - she respects our wishes as parents but never needs detailed instructions. When my son wasn't feeling well, she was incredibly patient and accommodating, and once he recovered, she had him out on long walks and bike rides. Highly recommend!”

Hello parents, I provide high-quality, attentive childcare with a calm, nurturing, and structured approach. I take pride in creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children feel secure and well cared for. I have hands-on experience working with children and focus on maintaining routines, encouraging positive behavior, and supporting each child’s individual needs. I can assist with school routines, homework, enrichment activities, and bedtime, while ensuring a smooth and organized daily flow. In addition to childcare, I offer light household support, including meal prep, tidying, and organization, helping maintain a clean and stress-free home environment. I am comfortable with school pickups/drop-offs and driving, and prioritize safety, punctuality, and clear communication at all times. I’m known for being reliable, detail-oriented, and professional, while still warm and approachable with children. I adapt easily to different family dynamics and aim to build long-term trust with both parents and kids.

"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."
