Booked by 37 families in Newark, CA

*** Pease note that currently my availability is limited to only weekend babysitting care.*** Hello, my name is Clara, I have worked with children for the past 12 years. My childcare experience varies in ages from infant, toddler, preschool, and after-school age in a center-based setting. I also have experience with after-school pick-ups and caring for the child in evening hours until parents return home from work, weekend babysitting, and the occasional date nights for parents. Although I do not have kids of my own, I have gained valuable knowledge and experience. Through my education, hands-on experiences, and most of all the children in my care. I have learned from them what helps them grow and learn. During my time working with young children, I enjoyed building healthy interactions and relationships. A few activates I like to engage in during my time with the children are arts & crafts, storytime, talking nature walks, and sensory activities just to name a few. I speak both English and Spanish. I was born and raised in Californian by two loving parents and I am the youngest of four. Currently, I'm working at a center for infants and young toddlers. In the future, my goal is to become an elementary teacher where I can continue to forester the learning of children. The field of early childhood education is my passion. Caring for young children would be is so much more to me than just a job; it would mean a lifetime of experience for my future endeavors. I would love to make a difference in your little one's life. Thank you. :)

Booked by 10 families in Newark, CA

My name is Shaelie, and I am a graduate of Cal State Monterey Bay, where I earned my degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences. I have about 12 years of babysitting and nannying experience working with children of all ages, including infants and early elementary–aged kids. Over the past few years, my professional work has also involved supporting children and families through community outreach and family services, which has allowed me to continue working closely with kids and strengthening my skills in communication, patience, and child development. I just moved to the Bay from Monterey, I would love to return to nannying, sitting, and working more directly with families again. I take a gentle, thoughtful approach to childcare and enjoy creating engaging, age appropriate activities that support children’s development while making each day fun and meaningful. I value open communication with parents and strive to create a calm, supportive environment for children to grow and feel confident. I am fully vaccinated, have my own reliable car, a clean driving record, and I’m comfortable driving children as needed. I also love pets and am happy to work in homes with animals.

“Shae was absolutely amazing with our shy 18mo and kept her cool despite our girl being fussy. She’s super easy going and willing to help out with other tasks around the house proactively. Absolutely would love to hire her again. Highly recommend!!”

Booked by 2 families in Newark, CA

I’m Lalida, and I’m excited to offer child care, senior care, and household help. I’ve been babysitting since I was 24, and I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to toddlers and even twins. I speak English, Thai, and Cambodian, so I can connect with different families. I enjoy doing fun activities with kids like crafts, tutoring, and dance lessons, as well as playing games that help them learn. I can also help with cooking, cleaning, and senior care. I’m comfortable working with pets, too! If you need a reliable and caring sitter, I’d love to help your family.

“We have known Lalida for awhile and she’s been great with our two kids. She is attentive and asks all the right questions, willing to help and very kind and nurturing. She is fun and is playful so our kids like having her around ”

Booked by 6 families in Newark, CA

Hi- My name is Jala and I just graduated with my Bachelor’s from San Jose State. I am now offering childcare and household services. I love working with kids because it gives me the opportunity to celebrate the little things everyday, whether it's a simple advancement in their learning journey or just watching them smile and play. I first began working with kids when I was 14 at a summer camp, and from there, I began working with multiple families outside of the camp. I have 3-5 years of experience with infants, toddlers and kids (even twins) but for the past 18 months, I have been focusing my care on infants (those under 1). In my spare time, I like to listen to music, spend time with my family and friends and hangout with my dog!

"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."
