Booked by 1 family in Oakland, CA

My name is Erika and I am currently working as a on call Medical Assistant at Kaiser. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I speak English and Spanish. I love taking care and working with kids. I worked as a afterschool staff for 5 years and I worked as a Pediatric Medical Assistant for 7 years. And also did babysitting for 1-2 years. My responsibilities have included walking and driving to/from school, tutoring, soccer and dance lessons. Also assisting with homework, snacks and playing indoor/outdoor activities. I can also work as a household assistant with cleaning, running errands and other tasks. I have been a caretaker for my grandmother and am comfortable with senior care. I can drive to appointments or do other tasks needed. I own a Maltipoo myself and am willing to care for dogs or families with dogs.

“Erika went above and beyond. She noticed the baseboards were dirty and she cleaned those for us without being asked to. She also stayed later to finish her tasks which was very kind of her. Highly recommend!”

"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."
