Marty $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Martina. I am a loving, caring, and dependable nanny with more than 10 years of experience working with multiple families and caring for children of different ages. I am also a mother of two daughters, whom I raised with love, patience, and care. Being a mother has taught me the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and happy environment for children. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with different families, and I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust with their children. I am responsible, patient, reliable, and caring, and I always treat the children I care for with kindness and respect. I would love the opportunity to work with your family and become someone you can trust and rely on. Please feel free to contact me if you are looking for an experienced and caring nanny.

April $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m April! I am a single mom to a beautiful 3 year old. Our babies are precious and sacred, if entrusted to my care, I promise to take care of them as I would my own baby! I enjoy taking care of babies/children. I have taken care of infants as a babysitter also from ages 5-10. I have also been a TA in a summer program to children from ages 6-13. I like to do makeup, play music, spend time with family and exercise in my very limited free time! I am BLS certified and have a genuine care for other human beings. For this reason I am completing pre reqs for nursing (currently doing child development course which is so insightful!) im hoping to go into pediatric nursing later on. I’m also fluent in Spanish. I’ll be thrilled and happy to hear back !

Mary L $30 per hour for 1 child

I have an abundance of love to offer a baby. I have 25 years of experience caring for infants ranging from three months to 10 years old. I strictly follow the parents' guidelines, which includes preparing healthy meals, organizing activities to foster the child's proper development—such as outings to parks and libraries—reading to them, and singing to them. I also handle the baby's laundry and light housekeeping.

$34 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Oakland, CA

I really enjoy working with kids and have experience caring for children ages 1-13. I'm comfortable handling multiple kids, helping with homework, making snacks, and keeping everyone entertained. I'm patient, responsible, and good at building rapport with both kids and parents. I have a clean driving record and take safety seriously. I'm also pretty flexible and good about communicating if anything comes up. Kids tend to like hanging out with me because I keep things fun but also respect whatever rules parents have in place. I'm reliable and show up on time. A bit about me: I have a bachelor's degree from Chico State and spent 9 years working in tech. I'm now making a move to more community based work because I want to spend my time helping people directly. Happy to share my LinkedIn so you can see recommendations from past coworkers and bosses. I'm also happy to help as a family assistant with things like dishes, laundry, returning packages, errands, and admin tasks to free up your time for work and family. Happy to help with pickups, drop-offs, activities, and light household stuff. Let me know if you want to chat more about what you're looking for! I do require 50% of the scheduled rate for last-minute changes within 48 hours of service.

“Angelina has been an incredible caregiver for my daughter, who recently turned 5, but has also been in her care when she was a toddler as well. She is deeply trustworthy, flexible, and kind— consistently reliable and dependable in every interaction. What truly sets Angelina apart is her natural ability to read my daughter’s cues and honor her as an individual human being, always relieving me of any stress as I know she will be safe and cared for to the best quality, and someone my daughter looks forward to seeing, as a bonus to alleviate separation anxiety! She brings positivity and light into every space she enters, immediately putting children at ease and creating a sense of joy and comfort. I give Angelina my highest recommendation without hesitation — she is a rare find and a true gift to any family she works with. — Erin N.”

"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."
