Booked by 1 family in Oceanside, CA

I began babysitting at 13 and have consistently worked with families over the years, caring for children from infancy through age 16. My experience includes caring for up to four children at a time, managing sibling dynamics, supervising conference and event childcare, and providing overnight nanny care while parents traveled. My faith is a central part of who I am and serves as my compass in how I care for others. It shapes my integrity, patience, and sense of responsibility, and guides me to treat every child with kindness, attentiveness, and respect. I believe children thrive in environments where they feel safe, valued, and genuinely cared for, and I strive to create that atmosphere in every home I serve.

I have a well rounded background when it comes to childcare. I have babysitting experience with elementary aged kids as well as educational experience. I currently work at Rancho Santa Fe Community Center where I am the Sports Director which entails me running sports camps, sports leagues, and just general childcare in between their various activities at the community center. I have been working with children at this job and babysitting consistently for the past 5 years and I look forward to continuing to increase my experience whether it be with different ages or different activities and appointments. I am also able to cook and clean as well as just general tasks around the house whatever that may be.

Lisa $35 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced nanny, Family Assistant, parenting educator, and published children’s author with a genuine love for children and families. I’m also the mom of two grown sons whom I homeschooled through 10th grade. I’ve worked professionally with private families since 2017, caring for children from infancy through school age, including neurodivergent children. I’m warm, playful, calm, dependable, and emotionally attuned, with a particular passion for helping children build confidence, independence, and emotional regulation skills. I also genuinely enjoy the household side of family support—healthy meal prep, laundry, errands, organization, transportation, household resets, and creating systems that make family life easier. I’m comfortable with pets, love being active and outdoors, and bring a mature, grounded presence along with plenty of energy and fun. Before working with private families, I spent 28 years with Nordstrom in leadership, training, and operations. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and would love to find families who value warm, reliable, proactive care.

Amanda $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amanda , and I have over 5 years of hands-on experience providing loving, dependable care for children of all ages. Caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I’ve been the go-to babysitter for my younger cousins and grew up helping care for my little sister and brother, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe, nurturing environment. I am also going to school for nursing, I am finishing up my pre-reqs. Once i graduate i want to work in pediatrics or NICU. I haven't decided just yet! My responsibilities included cooking nutritious meals, keeping the home clean and organized, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I regularly took the children to the park, swimming, and to school, while making sure their days were structured, safe, and full of learning and play. I also helped with naps, feeding, and maintaining consistent routines. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and care into your home and help create a positive, loving environment for your children.

"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."
