Bandana $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Bandana. I’m currently a BSN nursing student working toward becoming a registered nurse. I’m originally from Nepal, and caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. My caregiving journey started with my own family, helping care for my grandfather who had asthma and later my father during his recovery from a brain hemorrhage. Those experiences played a big role in inspiring me to pursue nursing. I also have professional caregiving experience. In 2025, I worked at a care home in Union City, where I cared for up to five clients per shift. I’ve also worked as an Activity Assistant at a rehabilitation center in Oakland, and most recently provided one-on-one care for a client in his home and continued caring for him through the later stage of his life. I also have childcare experience caring for both infants and toddlers, including a 3½-month-old baby and a 3½-year-old child. I’m comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, naps, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged, comfortable, and safe. I really enjoy spending time with kids, playing with them, and getting to know their individual personalities. I’m CPR/BLS and First Aid certified and comfortable assisting with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, feeding, mobility and transfers, medication reminders, meal preparation, transportation, errands, light housekeeping, and companionship. I’m patient, compassionate, dependable, respectful, and attentive, with a cheerful and caring personality. I enjoy talking, listening, laughing, and building genuine connections with the people I care for. Most importantly, I want the person I’m caring for to feel safe, comfortable, respected, and genuinely cared for. I’m new to this app, so I don’t have many reviews or references showing on my profile yet, but I can definitely provide references from families I’ve worked with. I completely understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about the person caring for your loved one or children, so I’m also happy to answer any questions and connect beforehand. I’m also a big animal lover and am very comfortable working with families who have pets. I’d be happy to help with basic pet care as part of the household routine as well! 🐾

"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."
