Booked by 3 families in Mill Valley, CA

Hi, my name is Maria Lopez. I’m 27 years old and I have several years of experience caring for children and assisting older adults. I’m a responsible, patient, and trustworthy person who truly enjoys helping others and creating a safe, warm environment. I recently obtained my nursing license and I’m currently in the process of transferring it to the state of California. During this time, I’m looking for a flexible nanny or caregiver position that allows me to continue with my student schedule, while supporting a family with dedication, respect, and professionalism. I would love the opportunity to become a reliable and caring part of your household.

“Maria was a pleasure to work with! She helped me with various things around the house, including laundry, dishes, and tidying up. She was prompt, hardworking, and did a great job. I will definitely have her back again!”

Kayla 2 reviews
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m a proud mother of two girls. I’m born and raised in Marin County. As a Mexican and Guatemalan American, I value creating a caring, respectful, and family-oriented environment for children. Childcare has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom worked as a nanny and often brought me along, giving me firsthand experience in the nanny and childcare setting from a young age. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for children ranging from 6 months to 4 years old. I love spending quality time with kids by reading books, going on walks, visiting the park, and encouraging fun, age-appropriate activities that help them learn and grow. I’ve also assisted with transporting children to and from activities such as story time, music classes, gymnastics, and appointments. In addition to childcare, I have experience providing care for individuals with disabilities, which has strengthened my patience, compassion, and ability to adapt to different needs. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and keeping your home organized while ensuring your children are safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Kayla was a wonderful babysitter and nanny to our son, and we’d highly recommend her. He genuinely loved spending time with her. She’s come to care for him many times, and she’s extremely patient and great with our 20-month-old. What stood out most was how she handled a day when he wasn’t feeling well. She comforted him, sang to him, and took really attentive, loving care of him throughout. That kind of patience and warmth is exactly what you hope for in someone watching your child. We’d happily have her back anytime.”

Hello Its Ayse, I’m 29 years old a caring, responsible, and positive person who truly enjoys spending time with children, discovering their world, and supporting their growth.

At the same time, I always prioritize respecting each family’s values, home environment, and expectations. For me, being a reliable, kind, and understanding person for families is very important.

Booked by 2 families in Mill Valley, CA

My name is Helen, and I am interested in the part time nanny or babysitter position with your family. I am Chinese and have been living in San Francisco for 24 years. I speak four languages: English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Toishanese. Currently, I work as a preschool teacher and have over 18 years of experience working with young children, including infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. My own child is now grown up, but I still love spending time with children. I would like to use my free time to help families who need childcare. Working with children makes me feel happy and valued. Here are some things about me that I think you might find helpful: 1. Experience with Children: As a preschool teacher in San Francisco, I excel at following children’s interests, creating art projects, connecting them to nature, and developing loose part activities. 2. Safety First: I always make sure children are safe and well-cared for. I am fully vaccinated, recently had a great annual physical exam, and hold a CPR certificate. 3. Fun Activities: I enjoy doing crafts, reading stories, and playing games with children to keep them engaged and happy. 4. Reliable and Trustworthy: You can count on me to be on time and dependable. I am excited about the chance to support your family and help your child. I am happy to discuss your needs and how I can help. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

“Helen was a big part of the success of our daughter's wedding. She staffed the child care room so parents could bring their children when they or the children needed a break. Multiple parents told me they would have left much earlier if Helen had not been there. That would have been unfortunate as the kids ruled the dance floor. If we had other child care needs in San Francisco Helen would be our first choice.”

Booked by 3 families in Mill Valley, CA

My name is Arrie and I just moved to the city to work for GAP, Inc! I have always loved working with kids of all ages, and I am looking to continue this work through my full time position. I don’t start until November, so I have lots of flexibility! I started working with kids as a gymnastic coach for ages 3-13. Additionally, I worked as a full time nanny for kids ages 3, 6, and 8. I am super active and excited to get to know you and your families!

“Can someone say BABY WHISPERER?!?! Our toddler (she's around the one year old mark) is spirited and spunky and all kinds of sweet rolled into one and Arrie is able to swoop on in and connect wholeheartedly. She takes her for walks, notices things that our toddler gravitates towards, has helped with meal times and bath time and is INCREDIBLE at story-time and play-time. She's also the only person (not even mum and dad) to have ever got our toddler to sleep downstairs in her play area - and we're still trying to figure out her top secret formula! We're going to miss her when she starts her new full-time role soon but hope she'll pop in for date-night or weekend care in future because she's a whole vibe and our toddler thinks so, too :)”

"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."
