Booked by 1 family in Montara, CA

Hi, my name is Karla. I’m the oldest of six siblings, ranging in age from 2 to 19, I’ve been around little ones my whole life! I’m originally from South San Francisco and currently studying at Saddleback College, working toward a career in teaching. I began babysitting my own siblings, then started caring for children of my mom’s friends. After high school, I managed a shoe store for two years, but I realized my passion was working with children. Since then, I’ve spent the last four years in licensed daycare centers, starting in a preschool classroom, then moving to toddlers, and currently a lead teacher in Pre-K. I also have some experience with infants and am very open to working with them more. Working in a variety of daycare settings has exposed me to different teaching philosophies and approaches to early childhood development. I genuinely enjoy helping kids reach their developmental milestones and creating a positive, supportive environment for them to grow.

I'm certified as a newborn care specialist and pediatric sleep consultant. I've spent many years working on and off with children in various roles including assisting in after-school art and reading programs, instructing children's fitness classes, and most consistently, as a nanny focused on infant/toddler development. I love being around kids of all different ages and am inspired by their growing curiosity and excitement to learn about life!

Hi! I’m Melisa 😊 I’m new to UrbanSitter, but I have over 7 years of experience working with children of different ages. I started my childcare journey as an Au Pair for 2 years and later worked as a live-out nanny for another 2 years. I also have professional experience as an Early Childhood Educator working with young children in a classroom setting. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a certification in Early Childhood Education, which have given me a strong understanding of children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs. I’m also a certified 200-hour Yoga Teacher, and I love incorporating mindfulness, movement, and creativity into my time with children. I enjoy outdoor activities, arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, and simply having fun while following each child’s interests. I’m calm, patient, reliable, and I always try to create an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves. Outside of childcare, I enjoy yoga, hiking, traveling, reading, and spending time outdoors.

Booked by 3 families in Montara, CA

Hi all! I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate, and I’m also very passionate about Education and child-care which is why I’ve been tutoring, mentoring and babysitting for a while. At my most previous job, I worked at a Montessori school where I was an assistant teacher. I developed and implemented lesson plans and curriculum with assistance from Head teacher and learned to create a safe learning environment by establishing classroom rules and ensuring students follow behavioral standards. I love nannying and learning about how every child’s mind is unique. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and hanging out with family. I have references and a resume if needed.

“ Wonderful Babysitter with a Positive Attitude I've had the pleasure of having Amanda as my child's babysitter, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Amanda consistently brings a positive attitude to her work, which instantly puts my child at ease. She's incredibly thoughtful and attentive to my child's needs, always ensuring that they are comfortable and happy. I appreciate how proactive she is in engaging my child in fun and educational activities. Amanda is truly a gem, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring .”

"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."
