Hi! I'm Michelle. I have been babysitting and working with kids for most of my life! :) I have been a camp counselor, run my own daycare, tutored, and have worked in elementary schools. I get so much joy from being around kids and find it so rewarding to help them learn and grow. I 've worked with children of all ages - it's something that I have always been naturally drawn to and good at but I have also picked up lots of helpful tips and tricks along the way. Look forward to meeting you!

I have 9 years of experience babysitting and caring for children from infant to adolescence. I am loving, patient, and very energetic! I love reading, arts & crafts, and dancing. I am fluent in English and Spanish! I have completed many child development classes and through that, I earned my Associate Teacher certificate. During my freshman year in high school, I worked with many families doing afterschool care. I would also volunteer at the Downtown River Boys and Girls club in Petaluma every day after school. Soon after I was offered a program coordinator position for the Boys & Club where I ran all kinds of enrichment programs while also helping children with their homework and building warm relationships with them. I also volunteered at Mt. Taylor Children’s Center in Rohnert Park where I engaged children in playtime, read books, and made sure children were safe at all times. My work through high school helped me realize I have a passion for caring and teaching children. I am a great role model for children and want to help guide them through their life’s in the most positive manner.

Melisa helped us out for date night and was so awesome with our 5yo! She even got her to bed, which can be tricky with our kiddo! Highly recommend. She is clearly an experienced professional and we felt great leaving our daughter with her.

Booked by 8 families in Kenwood, CA

Hi—I’m Shannon, a Bay Area household assistant based in Santa Rosa offering dependable home management, childcare and pet care with a calm, solutions ‑oriented approach that helps families feel at ease from the first booking. Experience includes camp leadership and consistent care for multiple families; happy to help with school pick‑ups, simple meals, homework support, and creative play tailored to each age group. A background in Food Science and years in fast‑paced workplaces sharpened organization, safety awareness, and problem‑solving that carry into the home. Comfortable with dogs and cats, and available for as needed and recurring support.

We initially hired Shannon for a last minute babysitting request. During our youngest's nap time she cleaned the house, and it looked amazing. She has great ideas when it comes to organization and structure, and provided an immense amount of support for us for an event we held over the weekend. Shannon's skills do not stop at childcare. She is incredibly proactive, creative, communicative, extremely organized. We would highly recommend hiring Shannon for your childcare and household support needs.

Hi, my name's Michaela (or Kayla) . I work all around Northern California, but mostly within Lake and Sonoma counties, as well as the San Francisco Bay Area. I have 6 years experience nannying and babysitting kids of all ages! I've looked after littles as young as 3 weeks old all the way to teens as old as 16 years old. I have always loved working with kids, even as one myself; I helped out in the younger classrooms all throughout my schooling and have been "family babysitter" for as long as I can remember. I enjoy spending time outside, reading books, baking, and art. I absolutely adore all animals, so it's not an issue at all if you have any! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or bookings :)

Hello! I’m Nicole and I am a part-time student, trying to finish my undergraduate studies at SSU after a long sabbatical! I am also a first time mom to a wonderful 4 mo son ♥️ I enjoy exploring new places, trying out new restaurants and foods, walking with my dog outdoors, exercising, reading and attending concerts with friends. My experience working with children has taught me so much and transformed me into the person I am today. I became an alert listener, a wise decision maker, a patient advisor, a smarter supervisor, a fun-loving and creative adult, a generous and open-minded caregiver, and most importantly a loyal and loving friend to the kids I work with. This has been an invaluable experience and will surely help me in my endeavors for the future :) ***PLEASE READ BELOW*** On a side note: it is crucial for me to let parents and families know that my rates are subjective to distance as well as the major holidays. Any questions or concerns please privately message me. - Jobs within 20 minutes or less from my location will only be charged my minimum rate - I would also like to point out my minimum of 4 hr bookings. I may make exceptions, please message me. - My cancellation policy is notification up until 24 hours prior to booking; anything later, I request 50% of the expected rate agreed upon. Less than 12 hours, it would be 100% of the expected rate. Thank you so much for your understanding!

On time, professional, and communicated well. Our 10 month old was asleep already when she arrived but she had been more than willing to help out if needed!

"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."
