Booked by 1 family in Newark, CA

Hi, my name is Vivi and I have been an after school teacher for over five years, working primarily with elementary aged children. I currently work with a Palo Alto based program that provides structured and professional after school care. I bring that same level of structure and consistency into the home by supporting children after a full school day with homework help, emotional regulation, and calm routines that help evenings run more smoothly. My approach works especially well for elementary age children and older toddlers who benefit from guidance, predictability, and positive reinforcement. I have child development units and a strong understanding of age appropriate behavior, transitions, and social emotional development. I am CPR certified and comfortable responding calmly in emergency situations. I value clear communication, reliability, and building trust with families, and I enjoy working with parents who appreciate professional after school support in a home setting. I also have experience in the ABA field, managing behaviors as well as running targets to match client’s needs. I am currently working on earning my RBT.

“I cannot recommend ViVi highly enough. As a single mom, finding someone you trust with your children is incredibly important, but finding someone who genuinely loves them and invests in their happiness is a rare gift. ViVi has truly become a part of our extended family. From day one, her warmth put me at ease, but it was the way she connected with my kids that really stood out. She doesn't just "watch" them; she engages them with such incredible creativity. Whether they are building elaborate forts, creating art projects, or inventing new games in the living Tim, she brings a sense of magic and fun that my kids absolutely adore. They don't just ask when she's coming over—they count down the days. Knowing my children are safe, loved, and having the time of their lives allows me to focus on work or take time for myself without a shred of guilt. She has earned a very special place in their hearts, and mine. If you are looking for someone who is reliable, kind, and deeply caring, look no further.”

Hi! My name is Eduarda but you can call me Duda. I’m 27yo, speak Portuguese and English and I am offering child care, pet care and household services. I’m currently living in Mountain View and looking for a new full time contract around the peninsula starting September 14th. I love kids and I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 years old. I’m experienced with all ages 0-15yo. But I’m currently taking care of a 20months girl during the week since she was 7monhts. My responsibilities with the families I’ve worked included driving to/from school and extra activities, crafts, meals, bottles, diapers, walks, playground, overnights, date nights. I love animals, I had 2 large dogs and 1 cat and I’m available to help with walks, feeding and even overnights so your pet doesn’t have to be alone during the night. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean and run errands. I’m comfortable with senior care and can cook, drive to appointments and/or do other tasks

“Eduarda has cared for my two children on multiple occasions. She is a patient and skilled caretaker that understands the needs of both infants and toddlers. My kids love her. She asks thoughtful questions, has fantastic instincts, and is incredibly prompt and thorough.”

Booked by 3 families in Newark, CA

Hi! I’m Nelly — a 23-year-old CSU East Bay alum currently working toward getting into a Physical Therapy program. I’m super active and run both track and cross country, so I love bringing fun, positive energy into everything I do! Right now, I work at Chabot College as an Adaptive Physical Activity Instructor, where I support and work closely with individuals of all abilities. I also work in the nursery at my church caring for children ages 1–4, and I absolutely love working with babies and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m really passionate about working with kids and hope to pursue a career in collegiate coaching someday. I already have 4+ years of experience coaching youth and enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment where kids can be active, build confidence, and just have a good time. Whether it’s playing outside, doing crafts, helping with routines, or keeping little ones entertained, I always try to make sure kids feel happy and cared for while parents feel at ease too!

“Our kiddo is not used to new people. Nelly did an amazing job taking her time with him and letting him warm up to her. By the time we got home, he kept asking for her to come back and play. Will definitely be hiring her again. Regular communication helped us feel comfortable going out for a bit.”

“Marcia took care of our little girl from 6 months old until 2 years old. She's a very warm nanny with 20 years of experience, and it truly shows! She is extremely reliable and always arrives on time, which gave us great peace of mind. Our little one loved spending time with her and playing games. As she grew, Marcia introduced new activities to keep her engaged, like painting, drawing, play-doh, singing, and even helping her cook cakes and cookies. Marcia also gave us the option to speak English, Spanish, or Portuguese to our baby, which was a big plus. She also prepared most of our little one’s meals which was incredibly helpful. I very much recommend Marcia as a nanny. You’d be lucky to have her!”

"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."
