Yesenia $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yesenia. I’m a Berkeley native and a working professional with a genuine love for caring for others and strengthening my community. I have experience babysitting family members and close family friends, and I grew up with a younger sister on the autism spectrum—an experience that taught me patience, empathy, and adaptability from an early age. I’m a proud cat mom to two cats and enjoy cooking, baking, reading, watching movies, and spending time outdoors. I love engaging with kids through creative activities like arts and crafts, building puzzles, and other hands-on projects that make learning fun. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment for your kiddos. I’m excited to meet you and your family!

"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."
