Hi, My name is Francielly I’m 32 years old, from Brazil. I have been living in the Bay Area since December 2015. I came as an au pair and worked with the same family for two and a half years (and still babysit for them sometimes) The kids were 14months old girl and newborn twin boys when I started. After that in August 2018 I started working with a 8 months old baby as a nanny live out and I have been with them since. After a year we welcomed another baby. I worked for this family for 4 and a half years. Since 2022 I have been working with a family full time. The baby was 2.5 months when I started. I’m flexible and I love to be around kids, specially babies, for me is really compensated to see the babies growing up and learning new things, be able to teach and see them developing its amazing rewarding. I have been babysitting and working with a lot of families and have plenty of experience with infants and toddlers, also I have a few experiences with other kids ages. I’m CPR certified and have all my vaccinations updated. I’m also TrustLine registered. I’m looking for a full time position for September 2024. Thank you Fran

I’m 22 years old and a mom of two, with 6+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages. I’m CPR certified, reliable, and have strong communication skills. I love having fun with kids—whether it’s crafts, teaching new things, playing outside, or going on hikes. I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on creating a safe, positive environment for every child.

“Samantha is a natural caregiver. Her warmth and friendliness made it so much easier for me to leave the kids, something I usually struggle with as a mom. She immediately put everyone at ease, and when I came home, the kids were smiling and happy. As an added bonus, she had cleaned up, swept the floor, and washed the dishes in the sink. We felt truly cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

"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."
