Booked by 14 families in Hercules, CA

Hi parents, My name is Vlada, and I’m pursuing a degree in Child Development and Psychology. I’m originally from Russia and I’ve been living here for 10 years with my family. I started to work with kids when I was 14 years old. I started by taking care of my youngest siblings and then volunteering. During my college years thus far I have taken many opportunities to gain more experience with children. I have been working at Monitissori daycare for 4 + years and I also have experience working with special needs. As of right now I have my child development permit, first aide certificate and now working towards my teaching permit. My philosophy is that all children of all abilities should be able to grow up where their social, emotional, and educational needs are met. I love being able to work with kids and watch them grow. If you need any references please let me know, I’ll be happy to provide them :)

“Great sitter. Arrived on time, brought things for the kids, cleaned up. The kids had a lot of fun.”

Booked by 2 families in Hercules, CA

Hey there! I graduated UC Berkeley with a Literature BA in 2017 and I’m currently getting my masters in Business. I have been babysitting since high school until right about when Covid came along. Since then i've been blessed with three nephews and nieces that are all under the age of four and do the occasional date night babysitting for a few different families currently (happy to share references). I love spending time with little ones and am really adaptable to your parenting style. I have experience from new borns to 14 year olds. I love arts and crafts, water parks, making bomb banana breads and reading! I was raised in Portugal for a good part of my life so i am happy to talk to your little one in either portuguese or even spanish if you'd like.

“Anabela was warm, prompt, and easy to communicate with. My boys had a great time with her while we were out! ”

Booked by 34 families in Hercules, CA

Hi, my name is Janneth I am easy going, intuitive, and responsible. I am also a mom to a smart and curious 10 year old. I have a lot of experience working with newborns, toddlers, and teenagers. In my day to day life I wear many hats mom, wife, manager, big sister, and care taker to many students. I work in higher ed and have been working specifically in student services for the past 5 years. I have experience working with students from diverse racial and socio-economic backgrounds. Before that, I spent 2 years teaching English to children aged 5-10. I started babysitting at a young age for my family and neighbors and have been taking care of children ever since. After having my son, I took a break from work to focus on his care, but now that he is older and more independent, I am able to return to babysitting and work with other families.

"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."
