Kimberlin $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kimberlin, and I am a caring, responsible, and dependable caregiver based in Foster City. I provide babysitting, pet care, and companion care for seniors. I truly enjoy helping others and creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment for every family I work with. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I love keeping children engaged through reading, arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, and creative play. I am also happy to help with simple meal preparation, bedtime routines, and light household tasks related to childcare. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I also have personal experience caring for elderly family members, which has taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating everyone with kindness and respect. I understand that trust is everything when inviting someone into your home, and I always strive to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. I look forward to meeting your family!

Mariel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Mariel and I am pursuing a degree in Marketing. I am offering my services as a nanny. I have been a nanny for over 8 years and it has taught me so much in so many aspects. I have taken care of kids between the ages of 8 months old to 11 years old. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and doing different activities with kids. My responsibilities have been different with different families, depending on the age of the child, but my basics have been doing the kids’ laundry, cleaning the kids’ dishes, and putting them in the dishwasher. I have driven/walked to kids’ activities, and so much more. Something that I have heard from the families is that they perceive me as a bubbly person. If you want to know more about my experience and me, don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hope to connect with you soon. Ps: I can give good references.

"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."
