Marleane $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Newark, CA

I have a strong background in childcare, with paid experience through Jovie, PJCC Treehouse, and College Nannies and Sitters. I’ve cared for children of different ages and supported families with daily routines such as meal preparation, playtime, homework help, and nap or bedtime schedules. I’m comfortable following family guidelines while being flexible and attentive to each child’s needs. I’m patient, dependable, and naturally nurturing, which helps me build trust with both children and parents. I take safety and communication seriously and stay calm and organized in busy situations. In addition to childcare, I can provide household support such as housesitting and running errands, and pet sitting when needed. My goal is to help families feel supported while creating a safe, engaging, and positive environment for children.

Kimberly $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Kimberly! I'm an 18 year old college student currently studying to become a nurse! A little about me: I love painting, being in nature, listening to music, and taking walks in the park. I’ve been babysitting for years it all began when I was 12, caring for my younger cousins and taking them to soccer practice. Through that, I met other families who needed help, which gave me the opportunity to work with many wonderful kids! I also have experience with older children, especially during high school when I worked as a teacher’s assistant. Babysitting is something I genuinely enjoy because I love watching kids grow and develop into their own little selves. It’s a joy to be part of that journey, and I hope to continue making a positive impact in the lives of the families I work with! I currently work at Starbucks, but I'm looking for a full-time babysitting position that allows me to prioritize school once it starts on January 12. Right now, my availability is wide open after 12 PM (I work 3:30 AM – 12 PM), but I’m willing to leave my current job if I find the right full-time opportunity. Starting in January, my availability will change to part-time to accommodate my school schedule. If you're interested or would like to know more, feel free to reach out! Thank you, and have a wonderful day!

Cheyanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Cheyanne, a college student studying pre-nursing with a dream of becoming a Labor & Delivery nurse. Caring for others isn't just something I do, it's genuinely who I am. I've been a trusted caregiver for over 10 years, looking after my nieces, nephews, and children of extended family and friends from infancy through school age. I grew up fast and took on a nurturing, reliable role with my siblings from a young age, and that sense of responsibility has only grown stronger over time. Families know me as someone who shows up, stays calm, and genuinely invests in the children I care for. Professionally, I'm currently volunteering weekly in a NICU, where I spend time reading to newborns and infants who are navigating serious illnesses and medical challenges during their earliest days of life. It's taught me patience, gentleness, and a deep attentiveness to the needs of the most vulnerable little ones and it's one of the most meaningful things I do. Reading has always been a passion of mine, so getting to share that with babies who need comfort and connection feels like exactly where I'm supposed to be. I also have volunteered with the East Oakland Collective for the past few years, a community organization dedicated to supporting Oakland's most vulnerable residents. It's an experience that has deepened my empathy and commitment to showing up consistently for others. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to help with cooking, light household tasks, or errands — whatever makes your family's day run a little smoother. When I'm not caregiving or studying, you'll find me reading, writing, or staying active. I'm a former track athlete and exercise is still a big part of my life. I also keep a Substack as a creative outlet and a way to express myself. I'm a big believer that curiosity, movement, and storytelling are all gifts worth nurturing in children too. What sets me apart is the heart I bring to this work. My nursing path has shaped me into someone who is compassionate, patient, and dependable, and I take that same standard of care into every family I work with. I'd love the opportunity to be someone your family can genuinely count on!

"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."
