Booked by 2 families in Lafayette, CA

Hi there! I’m Roua, 29, and I’m looking forward to finding a family to work with. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants as young as 5 months to kids up to 13 years old. Growing up, I spent a lot of time looking after my nieces, and I’ve always loved helping kids learn, explore, and grow. As I got older, I worked at the “Kids Club” at the Concord UFC Gym for 2 years, where I cared for multiple children and helped plan fun and creative activities. I’m happy to help with meals, light housekeeping, and coming up with games and activities that keep kids engaged and happy. I’m also a San Francisco State University graduate in Anthropology, and I bring patience, energy, and a love for working with children to every family I work with! COVID-19 vaccinated

“Roua was wonderful with my 6 month old! Phenomenal communicator, and super confident, thoughtful, experienced, flexible and caring. Strongly recommend Roua!”

Booked by 4 families in Lafayette, CA

I grew up in a large family as the second oldest of five siblings, where I took on a caregiving role from a young age. With workaholic parents, I helped raise my younger siblings, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand children’s needs. In high school and after graduating, I also worked part-time babysitting my neighbors’ children, further strengthening my ability to connect with kids and provide a safe, nurturing environment. Since moving to the U.S., I have continued working as a part-time babysitter and have developed strong childcare experience.

“Heven watched our two girls for the evening. She arrived on time and immediately settled in with the girls. getting to know them and setting up an activity to keep them busy as we departed. All went well. Heven was very responsive and provided good communication. I definitely recommend.”

Booked by 5 families in Lafayette, CA

Hi there! My name is Kennedy, and I am a professional nanny and Cal alum. I bring 9 1/2 years of childcare experience, including 5 years as a childcare attendant at the Bay Club gym, where I cared for children of all ages from newborns to teens. During my time there, I created and led engaging, age-appropriate activities for toddlers and school-aged children, supported infants, and also provided babysitting services for member families outside of the gym. For the past 4 1/2 years, I've worked as a nanny for numerous families, with a primary focus on infant and toddler care, while also caring for older children (part-time and occasionally). I'm fully vaccinated, CPR certified, have a driver's license, a reliable car, and experience safely driving children. I also have strong references and a deep passion for nurturing and supporting children's growth through every developmental stage! I truly love what I do and feel honored to be a part of each child's journey. :-) Thank you for taking the time to read about me and for your consideration!

Booked by 2 families in Lafayette, CA

Hi! My name is Anele and I am in graduate school. I am offering childcare, senior care and household services including pet care I love working with kids and have worked with kids of all ages including ones with special needs. I have many nieces/ nephews and my little sister whom I have taken care of during her infancy. Formally, I was a full-time live-in nanny/au pair for two years watching toddlers: 3 and 5 years old and a 16 year old teen. We had two dogs which I cared for so I am comfortable with pet dogs and cats. I then spent 5 months caring for a 3 years old, often overnights. My duties have included preparing meals, dressing, bathing, bedtime, laundry, assisting with homework, school pick ups/drop offs, afterschool activities, household chores and engaging play, crafts, and outings including the park. I was also a camp counselor and educator for 8 years in total so I am very comfortable around children. I am trained in First Aid /CPR (currently working on recertification) and water safety, and have completed a course in early childhood development. I also work well with seniors having looked after my ill grandparents at various points of their lives. I am able to provide senior care and household services care by preparing healthy meals, laundry and housework chores, grocery shopping, organizing, cleaning up shared spaces, assisting with errands, appointments and social outings, etc. I look forward to meeting your lovely family and working with you!

“We hired Anele for a 2 hours for the first time. Anele arrived on time with a smile on her face and started attending to my son right away, engaging in his interests , making sure he felt comfortable enough before us parents left the house. When we returned our son was disapointed that Anele had to go home. We will hire Anele again.”

Hello, I’m a passionate caregiver with experience with children and youth ages 0-14. I’ve worked in home and at several different preschools, elementary and middle schools. Some of my experience includes supporting children with medical appointments, camps, after school programs, and assisting with various therapeutic lessons. My responsibilities have included morning wake up and evening bedtime routines, activity planning, homework support, bathing, cooking, light cleaning, and transporting children to and from programs and appointments. I’ve also supported educational environments with special education assistance along with art and STEAM activity planning. I piloted an afterschool inclusion program and have implemented a wide array of behavioral intervention strategies. Some words previous children have used to describe me are loving, caring, thoughtful, respectful and uplifting.

"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."
