Shainese $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shai, I am a full time nursing student currently in my last term, working toward a career in pediatrics. I have a strong passion for caring for children and creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for them. I have hands-on experience caring for kids in different ages. I have 3 younger siblings, 2 of them being 8 years old who I helped raise, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, multiple children, and different personalities. In addition, through my nursing clinical experience, I’ve cared for ill children ranging from infants to teenagers. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children in good hands. I can assist with homework, prepare simple meals, and keeping kids active and engaged in a safe way. I have a BLS certification and able to perform CPR when needed. I also have my own transportation and a flexible schedule outside of my school hours.

Isiah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Isiah — a firefighter/EMT in San Francisco and someone who genuinely loves working with kids. I’m active, social, and full of positive energy, and I bring that same attitude to childcare. I’ve spent years helping families with everything from after-school care to weekend babysitting, including experience with kids on the spectrum. I’m big on creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment — whether that’s playing outside, building Legos, going to the park, doing crafts, or making up silly games that keep everyone smiling. As a firefighter, I’m also very active, love going on little adventures, and enjoy keeping kids engaged with movement, imagination, and conversation. I’d love the chance to support your family, bring good energy into your home, and make your child’s day brighter!

Hello! I’m Celia Gutierrez – your warm and reliable bilingual nanny! I’m based in San Leandro and have been caring for children since 2019. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English, and I specialize in working with newborns, infants, and toddlers. Caring for children isn’t just a job for me—it’s a true passion. I love creating joyful, nurturing environments where little ones feel safe, supported, and happy. Every child is unique, and I take pride in learning their routines, interests, and needs. I help maintain consistent schedules, keep play and rest areas tidy, organize toys, and plan fun, engaging activities—from arts and crafts to outdoor play and nature walks. My goal is always to bring a sense of calm, structure, and positive energy to every day. A few things parents appreciate about me: • CPR & First Aid Certified • Basic Sign Language • Clean driving record & reliable personal vehicle • Excellent references from past families • Bilingual in Spanish & English for added communication and learning If you’re looking for a trustworthy, nurturing caregiver who will treat your child like family, I’d love to connect and see how I can support your household.

“Celia is a very sweet, calm and patient babysitter. She got along immediately with my 4 yr old daughter and kept her entertained playing games and with arts/crafts. Celia is also very flexible and easy to communicate with. I will definitely have her back again!”

"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."
