Booked by 2 families in Newark, CA

Hi! My name is Keira, and I’m a recent graduate from the College of San Mateo with over 5 years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I’m currently working with a full-time family. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, with experience in infant care (feeding, diapering, naps), play-based learning, and structured routines. I also have driving experience and can help with school pick-ups and activities. I love working with children and creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment. I use a gentle approach with clear boundaries and enjoy activities like reading, arts and crafts, and play. I value communication, consistency, and a respectful partnership with families. I’m available for part-time, occasional, or full-time opportunities, and I’d love to connect with your family!

Marfa $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 6 years of experience working with children as a long-term nanny, babysitter, and daycare assistant, caring for children from newborns through school age. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology, which helps guide my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and individual needs. I’m deeply committed to building trusting relationships with parents and making families feel at ease. Clear communication, consistency, and emotional attunement are central to the way I provide my care. I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported and encouraged to grow. I enjoy outdoor play, reading, writing, drawing, motor-skill activities, cooking and mealtimes, and incorporating music into daily routines. I look forward to connecting with your family and your little ones.

"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."
