Almarah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Almarah and I just graduated from Muhlenberg College with a B.A. in Media and Communications and Theatre. I am offering child care, dog care, and household tasks. I've been working with children since 8th grade, when I began tutoring Sunday School at my synagogue for elementary schoolers. I tutored all throughout high school, where I developed a passion for caring for children, as well as gaining experience in curriculum development and planning activities for children. I've spent a few summers as a camp counselor for children ranging from kindergarten through middle school and am very comfortable with any children in this age range, though I'm willing to care for younger kids as well! I spent last summer driving 12-24 middle schoolers around the bay, so I'm happy to bring your kids to any activities or classes they've got planned! I can cook, clean, do laundry, and run errands. I have the most experience in dog care but am open to working with other pets if I seem like the right fit your family!

Korinne $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am energetic, creative, mindful, and I enjoy helping others. With 17yrs of professional childcare experience, including running a large after school program at an elementary school via Hayward Public Library, I've been able to help bring siblings together, keep hundreds of Bay Area families reassured of their childcare choice, and teach kids several skills -- including chess, soccer, musical theater, dance, and Spanish. Professional roles: Camp Galileo Team Leader - 3yrs, Beechwood School PreK & Kinder aide - 1 y, Beechwood Substitute Teacher - 2 yrs, Hayward Public Library HSC Supervisor - 3 yrs, MS Spanish & Math tutor - 1 yr, Nanny -7 yrs, Kiddie Corp Childcare - 2 yrs ongoing, Mother's Helper - 1y During childcare I focus on safety, fun, opportunities to learn, outdoor play, and morality. I believe in swapping screen time for interactive activities, the importance of physical health, reflecting on our actions, and high energy fun. My favorite way to spend downtime with kids includes: going outdoors, imaginative play, and crafts -- unless your child likes karaoke!!! You will always get periodical updates if you choose, the kids will always have my full attention, and you can count on an energetic, experienced, detail-oriented, and committed childcare provider. I am open-minded, flexible, and I value communication.

"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."

"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."
