Hello! My name is Johanna, and I am currently between jobs, figuring out the next phase of my career. I am originally from Vermont and moved to San Francisco about 2 years ago. I went to college and lived in NYC for 15 years and never thought I would leave, but here I am! Since I'm a country girl at heart, I feel like I get the best of both worlds living in San Francisco; between the city life and endless natural wonders, it's truly a majestic place where I spend a lot of my time hiking and exploring. I spent a lot of time babysitting while I was in high school and college. My mom gave birth to my youngest sibling when I was in high school (a 17-year age gap), so I spent significant time caring for him as an infant. I also have two nieces and one nephew whom I absolutely adore. I love kids and working with people in general, and I am very good at it. I worked in sales for 8 years in the beauty industry for The Estée Lauder Companies (ELC), so I truly enjoy connecting with others. I consider myself an empathic, nurturing, and bubbly individual who loves helping others. I also love animals. I am more of a dog person, but I adore all creatures. I used to do a bit of dog sitting in high school and currently dog-sit for a family friend. I am open to watching children, seniors, and pets, as well as helping with household services.
I’ve been caring for others for most of my life. babysitting at 11 for the family next door, caring for a 3-month-old, a toddler, and sometimes their 6-year-old as well. Since then, I’ve babysat and nannied for 14 years and have cared for as many as five children at once, ranging from newborns to teens. I especially love babies and am very confident with infant care, routines, feeding, soothing, and creating a calm, safe environment. I’ve been CPR and First Aid certified twice, including for infants. I’m warm, responsible, patient, highly attentive, and very safety-conscious. I’m also comfortable caring for children with allergies, illness, or injuries, and bring a calm, compassionate presence. Beyond childcare, I’ve cared for three grandparents (one paralyzed), including end-of-life care, which deepened my patience, gentleness, and reliability. I’ve also had dogs all my life and have lived with and cared for cats, so I’m very comfortable with pet care too. I’m a nurturing, trustworthy caregiver who genuinely loves caring for children, seniors, and animals.
Hi! I'm Olivia, I'm 24 years old, and I am a nurturing, compassionate, and grounding caregiver with many years of experience in caring for people ages 18mo - 22yrs. After two years at a University as a Developmental Psychology major, I decided to pursue a career in mental health care. I work with both neurotypical and neurodivergent children and adults, and I quickly adapt to each person's needs as I get to know them better. I love engaging and playing with children in fun and educational ways, and aiding in the growth of children and adults with different neurological, sensory, and developmental needs. I have a lot of patience, respect, and imagination, and I love to encourage imaginative play! I find it most rewarding when children are positively impacted by their community, and when they show progress in their natural environments! I have worked in schools with all different variations of special education and programs, and I take nanny jobs during the summers and holidays. Though I work in schools, I am open to being a full-time nanny for the right family, and I'm always open to one-time gigs! I would love to meet you and your family and see if we're a good match!
“So patient and accommodating, our two little ones would not stop raving about how much fun they had with Ms Olivia!”
Hello! I am an attentive, responsible, and patient caregiver with experience caring for children of various ages. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for children.

My name is Ivonne. I have experience as a nanny caring for children starting at six months of age. I have developed skills in managing routines, safety, nutrition, early childhood stimulation, and emotional support, always guided by pediatric recommendations and working collaboratively with parents to monitor the children's development. I hold certifications in first aid, child care fundamentals, and food handling. - Provided comprehensive care for a child starting at six months of age—during both daytime hours and weekends—while adapting to the family's routines. - Supported routines established in collaboration with the parents, including bathing, dressing, feeding, general care, and activities. - Fostered the child's development through activities such as storytelling, singing, and age-appropriate conversation. - Prepared healthy meals, handled laundry, accompanied the child on daily walks, and attended to personal hygiene needs. - Kept the child's room safe, clean, and organized, always prioritizing the child's well-being. I currently work Monday through Friday as a nanny for a two-year-old.

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
