Sabrina $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sabrina, and I have many years of experience caring for children in both professional and personal settings. I studied Child Development at COM and earned my BS in Kinesiology, which has given me a strong understanding of child development, movement, wellness, and the importance of keeping kids active in healthy and engaging ways. For 7 years, I've worked as a Lead Camp Counselor at Camp Coelho through the Epilepsy Foundation of Northern California, where I support and care for children with special needs in a safe, encouraging camp environment. I also worked as an alumni staff member with Marin Horizons After-School Center, helping create a positive and supportive space for children after school. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve been babysitting for local families in Mill Valley since I was a teenager. I genuinely love caregiving because I enjoy building trust with families and creating an environment where children feel safe, understood, and cared for. With my background in kinesiology, I also love incorporating fun activities, movement, and creativity into children’s routines to help keep them engaged and active. A little about me personally — I’m a creative and compassionate person who loves animals, art, gaming, and spending time outdoors. I value kindness, communication, and making meaningful connections with the families I work with.

Lily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lily and I am an 18 year old incoming freshman at Cal Poly SLO. I love working with kids, as I spent my senior year of high school working at a local preschool and dedicating my senior project to studying child psychology. I also am happy to do any errands or other household tasks, and have lots of experience with pets so I am more than happy to work for families with pets. I am also able to cook, clean, drive to any activities, etc.

"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."
