Robin $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Robin! I have extensive experience in childcare; I’ve worked as a swim instructor for the YMCA, an overnight camp counselor for Girl Scouts of San Diego, and I have been volunteering at Sandburg Elementary School as an Assistant Teacher for coming up on 3 years now. I have worked with a wide age range of children as young as 6 months and as old as 17, and am comfortable with all ages. I love working with kids and find that kids love working with me! I grew up with dogs all my life, so I am very experienced with caring for dogs, and I have a deep love and appreciation for all animals so I am very open to caring for all pets. I am a great cook and a better baker; I have been told to open up a restaurant or bakery many times and am very comfortable with meal prepping if needed. I live by the principle that you should always leave a place better than how you found it, and I have no problem tidying up around the house if needed. I do not have experience caring for seniors but I am a fast learner and have no problem doing so. I love to dance, play games, read, go on long walks and adventures, and I am a big believer in keeping the magic of a child’s childhood and would love to organize a craft or safe adventure (like an in-house scavenger hunt!) to help foster their imagination and keep their brains active. Ultimately, I am a sponge and I will adjust my care and approach according to whatever your needs for your child are, and whatever parenting style you enforce at home so that I can be of help however you need! CPR, First Aid, and BLS Certified. Non-smoker

Savannah $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Savannah, and I’m a recent college graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology who is working toward becoming a labor and delivery nurse. I have a strong passion for caring for children and supporting families, especially during early childhood and newborn stages. I am CPR certified and currently volunteer at Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women & Newborns, where I assist in a clinical environment focused on maternal and infant care. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I’m comfortable following routines, providing attentive supervision, and supporting families with dependable care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, reliable care you can feel confident in.

"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."
