Tanya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Tanya and I am a fun-loving, caring, knowledgeable and experienced caregiver that has been working with children since I babysat as a teenager. I started teaching at the elementary level right out of college. I taught until my second child was born. I raised three children with my husband in Sonoma County. When my children were of school age I started nannying for families with infants. My specialty is sleep training and helping babies and toddlers with schedules that work for their families. I went back to work in public schools as an instructional assistant in special education in 2020 which is where I am currently.

“Stephanie has babysat my 22months old daughter twice so far and we plan to continue hiring her. She was the first person besides family ever babysat my daughter and we were very impressed how she quickly was able to earn her trust over. She played with her, sent us photo updates while my husband and I were out on our date, fed her and cleaned up. My daughter had a great time and gave her two big hugs before she left. Besides being a great and responsible babysitter, her personal story is also an inspiration. Highly recommended Stephanie!”

Dakota $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Dakota! I’m looking to help out busy families with after school care and dog sitting. I’m currently in school and working part time at Toppings Frozen Yogurt in Bennet Valley. I graduated high school at Montgomery High School on the High Honor Roll and love helping with English and Art. I’m passionate about everything creative, and love a good art project! I have been around kids in my family for years and have most experience with kids 3+. I enjoy helping kids with homework, doing art projects, and being in nature! On the doggy side of things, I’ve had 3+ dogs across my life and am very experienced in the art of playtime! I have been a dog sitter for my neighbors and my own dogs. I can stay on schedule for feeding times and I love going on dog walks and hikes. I’m experienced with Beagles, Chihuahuas, Pitbulls, and other mixed breeds. I am allergic to cats, but totally fine with dog shedding and large animals. I am experienced with household chores, as I live on my own. I can help with basic cleaning tasks, errands, preparing lunches, and many other chores. I am CPR and First Aid certified by the AHA. I can provide my certificate if needed.

"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."
