My name is Jamila. I take last minute requests! If you see a time not listed on the booking calendar that you’d like to book, please reach out. I am an honorably discharged Coast Guard veteran. I have experience with high profile families & am happy to sign NDAs. Infants and toddlers are my specialty, but I enjoy working with all ages. I studied sports medicine & child development at Foothill College & go to San Mateo College. I am certified in: community health work, case management, crisis intervention, mental health first aid, domestic violence/sexual assault survivor advocacy, & crime victims rights advocacy. I studied acting at Maggie Flanigan, HB studio, Upright Citizens Brigade, The Linklater Center, & the Barrow Group. I'm an actress/model, & professional painter/artist. I enjoy bringing my creativity to life with my passion with kids through teaching, painting & drawing. I enjoy creative activities like singing & acting if the kids are interested to learn. I started off in the theater as a kid and love sharing my love for the arts with families! I love taking the kids out to movies, museums, or to the park. I’m a member of MOMA, De Young, Cal Academy & Asian Art Museum. I am happy to take your child since my membership makes it free for them! I have a huge imagination & love to play games. I am experienced with yoga. I’m a reiki practitioner & energy healer. I have found kids love meditation and energy work as well. I am currently studying Spanish, Hindi, Japanese, Mandarin, & French & would tutor your children if you like! I am a southern belle and cook many things like Chinese, Indian, Italian, & many soups and pastas. I also love animals. What makes me a great caregiver is that I am creative & passionate about life. I travel & I’ve nannied all over the country. I offer a sliding scale to those self attesting to financial hardship, however my slots fill up REALLY quickly for that. I accept Apple Pay, Cash App, cash payments, or credit paid through the app when I arrive or at the conclusion of the booking. I look forward to working with you & your family! My full & part time availability is on a temporary and occasional basis. If you have longer term needs, please write me directly and let’s work something out. Note: please contact me if you’d like to do a nanny share option. I offer these as well! Note: please let me know if your kiddo/s are sick and I’ll let you know if I can accommodate. I do take gratuity and it is appreciated. :)

Jamila was great with our kids!

Booked by 176 families in Loma Mar, CA

Experienced with infants, toddlers, elementary and middle. I’ve been on Urban since April 2015 so please feel free to browse my many 5 star reviews. Background: -While an undergraduate at Simmons College, I studied early childhood education and worked in an urban preschool for two years with Jumpstart, an AmeriCorps project. -CPR/ AED trained and certified by the Red Cross -Oakland CORE certified (Earthquake & Disaster Preparation) -My reviews are nearly all 5 stars. -I live in Cupertino (formerly from Boston) and am obsessed with hot yoga and once upon a time Sailor Moon. I’d be happy to be a healthy influence on your family and assist with household coordination. MY STYLE - Waldorf/ Montessori influences - I encourage creative & imaginative play along with self organizing and cooperation for older children. - For the pre-school and under crowd, I participate in parallel play and getting on the child’s level. - I love taking children outside to play or for a stroller walk. We will read books together (maybe even make one together) and on the whole I’ll be that new age sitter who isn’t too fond of screen time and would rather we go to the playground or explore fractal patterns in pinecones. 😋🌲 Thank you! -Jane *** A note on my care style: I believe children thrive with movement, fresh air, and exploration whenever possible. For children who are walking and older, I generally plan on stroller walks, playground visits, backyard play, or other age-appropriate outdoor activities (weather permitting). If your family’s needs require children to remain indoors for the entirety of each day, we may not be the best match. If outdoor walks or playground time require prior approval or have specific restrictions, I appreciate discussing those expectations before booking so we can ensure we’re a great fit. *** I do my best work when I am the primary caregiver during my scheduled hours. While I enjoy collaborating with parents, my style is naturally independent, calm, and child-centered. Families who are looking for a true mother’s helper role or who anticipate being closely involved with the child throughout the day may find that another caregiver is a better fit. *** My booking minimum is 5 hours unless we’ve worked together previously and have arranged an exception together.

Hi - My name is Mariana and I’m looking for a 2 part time, weekdays, one in the morning one afternoon, open for a full time was well, and babysitting. I love working with kids and have experience caring for children from 6 months to 11 years old. I’m comfortable with everything from diaper changes to preparing meals, and I bring a mix of fun and learning to our time together — reading stories, coloring, puzzles, going to the park, and even the occasional dance party. I’m responsible, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending my days with kids. I’m CPR certified, a strong swimmer, fully vaccinated, and a safe driver.

Mariana was absolutely amazing! Our 11-year-old daughter and 9-year-old twin boys loved her. She baked with my son, and he was so excited and proud of his baking creations. She even turned cleaning up into a group activity and got all three kids to wash the dishes with her, something they rarely do with us. She then took all three to the beach and out for dinner, seizing the initiative to take care of all the preparations, packing a bag with extra clothes, towels, and sunscreen. When we had an emergency and needed her to stay for an extra two hours on short notice, she was extremely flexible and didn't hesitate. At the end of the night, the kids wouldn't let her leave: they kept hugging her, kissing her, and demanding we bring her back. We would absolutely book Mariana again and highly recommend her to any family.

"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."
