Shirin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shirin. I’m a warm, patient, and reliable caregiver with hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I spent nearly a year as a full-time nanny for two boys (ages 7 and 12), managing their daily routines, preparing meals, and planning fun educational activities that kept them engaged and growing. Before that, I spent over three years as an English teacher for young children (ages 4–7) at a kindergarten, where I created lesson plans, built nurturing classroom environments, and helped little ones develop a love of learning. I also volunteered abroad teaching Math and English to children aged 5–7 through an international program. Beyond childcare, I bring strong organizational skills, a calm and positive attitude, and genuine care for the families I work with. I’m fluent in English and Russian, which can be a bonus in multilingual households. I’m responsible, punctual, and truly enjoy being a supportive presence in children’s lives. I’d love to meet your family and learn how I can help! 😊

Dilornie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families! My name is Dilornie and I am 18 years of age, recently moved to San Jose from Seattle, Washington. I’m looking for opportunities as a babysitter because I enjoy taking care and watching children grow in their own unique ways. I have been a babysitter since the age of 13, starting within my own family care, watching my little siblings and my older siblings kids; ranging from an infant all the way up to 8 year olds. I never thought of babysitting as a job, babysitting has always been something I truly enjoyed. I am also someone who enjoys keeping and maintaining a clean environment for your children while cooking to make sure that they get all their nutrients! In addition to babysitting, I am open to senior care. I have been caregiving as well for 1-2 years, taking care of my own grandparents back home in Seattle, and I truly value my time spent taking care of the elderly. I would be more than grateful to have the opportunity to support and be there for your family!

Nicolle Andrea $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Nicolle, and I’m originally from Colombia. I’m fluent in English, Spanish, and French, and I have many years of childcare experience, from newborns to teenagers. I have worked in a daycare and cared for twins, triplets, and families in Switzerland and throughout the Bay Area. My office recently closed, and I am now a full-time mom to my 3-month-old daughter. I’m currently looking for a nanny share-style arrangement or a family comfortable with me bringing my daughter along. I especially love working on early childhood stimulation and creating age-appropriate activities that support children’s development. I also enjoy exploring new places with little ones, including parks, libraries, museums, and story times. I love keeping our days active, engaging, and fun while respecting each child’s routine and needs. I’m caring, responsible, organized, and very comfortable with infants and young children. I’d love to find a family where our little ones can grow, learn, and explore together. Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to answer any questions!

"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."
