Xitllali $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Xitllali but you can call me Lali. I’m currently a student at De Anza College majoring in History. I am offering childcare services for children of all ages. I have experience babysitting a 1-year-old I cared for a few summers ago for a family friend, as well as regularly helping take care of my 2-year-old cousin, Enzo. My experience includes supervising toddlers, but I’m also comfortable with older children and different age ranges. My responsibilities have included playtime, meals, naps, and making sure kids are safe, engaged and cared for. I enjoy being a babysitter and spending time with children of all ages. I like being hands-on, whether that means playing, helping with routines, or just keeping things calm and fun. I’m patient, responsible, and easy to work with. I have a driver’s license with a clean driving record, which allows me to help with transportation if needed. I have basic knowledge of Spanish and can help with simple communication or homework if needed.

Izabel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! 😊 My name is Bella, and I recently graduated from the University of San Francisco with a degree in Business Administration. As I navigate my next career steps, I’m looking for a part-time opportunity to support families who need a responsible and caring babysitter. I come from a very tight-knit family, so I’ve been around children all my life! Growing up, I was always the one helping out with younger cousins, and that experience has made me naturally patient, kind, and nurturing. I also have experience babysitting for families in Hawaii during my breaks back home, caring for kids of various ages and ensuring they feel safe, engaged, and well cared for. I genuinely love spending time with kids, whether it’s engaging in creative activities, helping with homework, or simply making them laugh. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and positive environment where kids feel happy and comfortable. Outside of babysitting, I love staying active by going to the gym, grocery shopping (yes, it’s one of my favorite things to do!), and making the most of my days by being productive. Whether it’s organizing, setting goals, or working on creative projects, I thrive on structure and positivity, something I also bring into my caregiving approach. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and be a trusted sitter for your little ones. Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to chat and see if I’d be a great fit for your family! 😊✨

"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."
