Luisa $33 per hour for 1 child

Hey Families! I'm Lu, I’m Colombian. I started working with kids on 2019 as an Au Pair for a family in Orinda. A little bit about me: - I started working with kids when I was 20 years old for a non-profit (TECHO) in my home country. - I'm a loving person with kids. My goal is making them feel comfortable, safe and happy with me. - The last six years working with kids different ages have brought me the experience to help kids to manage their emotions. - My husband and I love dogs (specially poodles) and pet sit during our time off. - I like to read. - I'm passionate about Design and Organization. - I’m a Spanish teacher in Lamorinda. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope we can meet soon. *I’m new looking for a job here but I can share with you my recommendations*

Kaia $22 per hour for 1 child

Hey there!! My name is Kaia and I’m currently a rising senior at the University of Alabama. I’m home for the summer and I’m offering help with childcare! I’ve always loved working with kids and have several years of experience babysitting/nannying children of various ages. I can drive to/from summer school, tutoring, and even just having fun during the summer! I’m very flexible this summer and have my own child friendly car to commute to and from wherever needed! I’m responsible, upbeat, and committed to providing a safe and engaging environment.

Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CA

I’m a CPR-certified babysitter with years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve also worked as a swim coach, leading over 120 kids per season ranging from ages 3 to 18 — which taught me patience, creativity, and how to make learning fun and safe. I truly love working with kids (and dogs too!). I have a dog of my own, a sweet little Italian greyhound named Loki who happens to be deaf, so I’m very comfortable providing attentive and compassionate care for both children and pets.

Shannon $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Shannon. I am originally from Sacramento. I have lived in the Bay Area for 8 years. I’m a caring, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who truly enjoys helping others feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have hands-on childcare experience from caring for my two nieces from infancy through kindergarten, giving me a strong understanding of young children’s routines, needs, personalities, and developmental milestones. I also have five years of experience providing care for older adults, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to provide compassionate support. Whether caring for a child or an older adult, I believe in creating a warm and nurturing environment where each person feels respected, valued, and comfortable being themselves. I’m responsible, trustworthy, patient, and attentive to the little things that help families feel confident in their caregiver. My goal is to provide dependable care while making the people I care for feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared about.

"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."
