Jacqueline $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Jacqueline, a warm, reliable, and professional nanny with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teens. I currently care for an 8-year-old boy about 10 hours a week and am looking to connect with more families. In the past, I’ve supported a busy household with four children (ages 2–11), helping with after-school care, bedtime routines, and date nights. I’ve also traveled with families and am comfortable with overnights. I have my own transportation and love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for kids. Excellent references available!

Leanna $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Leanna. I’m a responsible, caring, and easygoing person who genuinely enjoys being around kids. I’m CPR certified and always prioritize safety while making sure children feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I love spending time outdoors, listening to music, doing creative activities, and keeping kids engaged instead of just sitting in front of a screen all day. I can help with homework, prepare simple meals and snacks, assist with bedtime routines. I’m also comfortable with pets and have reliable transportation. Families can count on me to be trustworthy, attentive, and communicative. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children can be themselves while parents feel confident knowing their little ones are in good hands.

Berenice $19 per hour for 1 child

I have experience with taking care of pets, children, and seniors. For starters, I worked at Petco for almost 3 years so I am knowledgeable in pet care and dietary needs. I rescued a senior cat so I have experience with administering oral medication. For dogs, I have experience with taking care of young and high-energy dogs. As for children, my experience as a Youth Leader for the YMCA has allowed me to understand what it takes to engage with children and provide age-appropriate activities that will develop their social and emotional behavior. As for seniors, I have experience working with IHSS through the care of my own father and can provide medication management, laundry services, household chores, errands, and companionship.

"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."
