Hi! My name is Lupita, and I’ve been caring for children for over four years. I have experience being a part time sitter while caring for multiple kids at a time . I truly enjoy spending time with kids keeping them safe, happy, and entertained. I also have experience pet sitting and understand how important it is to give pets love and attention while their owners are away. In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m happy to help with household cleaning and organization. I have experience with house cleaning and enjoy keeping spaces neat and welcoming. I’m responsible, caring, and always ready to lend a hand wherever it’s needed! I have availability to babysit or pet sit part-time or occasionally and I would be happy to share my references . Thank you !

Katia Teresa 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Redwood City, CA

My name is Katia Dedicated and caring teacher with over 18 years of experience working with children from newborns to 15 years old. Skilled and passionate about supporting children’s growth through educational and creative activities. Experienced nanny with strong communication and organizational skills. Certified in CPR and First Aid, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for every child.

“Katia has been an incredible addition to our family, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, capable, and dependable nanny. She has been exceptionally flexible with our family’s schedule, which has made a huge difference because of our variable work hours. She currently helps with our son before and after school, and she is seeking additional hours. Katia brings a wonderful energy into our home, and our son took to her almost immediately. As a preschool teacher, Katia has a strong understanding of early childhood development and knows exactly what to look for at each stage. This experience truly shows in her work. Our 2.5-year-old son has developed so many positive habits under her care, including washing his hands regularly, getting dressed, and building a sense of independence. We feel very fortunate to have her. I feel selfish not wanting to share her with another family, but I highly recommend her for her professionalism, flexibility, and wonderful personality.”

"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."
