Anahid 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Anahid. I have always felt like I am part of each family I've worked for; now I always aim for the same type of fulfilling relationship with my new families. I enjoy organizing play dates, reading books to children, doing art projects with the little ones and going on nature walks to develop their sense of curiosity. With 6 years of experience, my skills also include meal prep, light housekeeping, but most importantly, creating a safe and supervised environment for your child. I speak English and Spanish, and have a squeaky clean driving record. I'd describe my personality as friendly and kind. In my free time I like to go hiking and read books. I am hard-working, responsible and reliable. Thank you for looking at my profile and considering me for your nanny and babysitting needs.

“Anahid is a wonderful sitter. She connected very quickly with my girls (1.5 and 4). She's now working for us as a regular sitter. She's reliable, on time, and thinks about other things that are needed in the house (loading dishwasher, tidying the girls' rooms). Really a kind and wonderful person, and I highly recommend her!”

College Educated & Experienced Babysitter Hi, I'm Jessica! I'm a 28-year-old Cal Poly grad with 9+ years of babysitting and nannying experience, including two summers as a full-time nanny. I'm the "fun babysitter who gets things done". Kids get my full attention and energy, and parents come home to a calm, organized house. What I bring to your family: -AP level homework help (math, science, English, etc.) -Activity driven babysitting (screen time is proven to slow down imagination and learning, let’s keep your kids active with playing and activities) -Competitive soccer & tennis background (also I love playing any sport and can help your kid practice) -Meal prep, cooking, organizing, and tidying up! -Drives to activities & appointments -Pet-sitting included -References gladly provided (I just set up my profile so my references will be on my profile soon) I treat every child with kindness, respect, and full attention, creating a safe, supportive environment they'll look forward to.

“Jessica babysat for our two kids (6 and 10 at the time) for about 5 months, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was fantastic with both of them despite their age gap. She was patient and playful with our younger one, while keeping our 10-year-old engaged and even helping with homework. She kept them active and off screens, which we really appreciated, and always left the house calm and tidy. She’s reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about the kids’ wellbeing. We’d recommend her to any family without hesitation.”

I'm Michaela. I am a mother of 4. I have 3 boys and just welcomed my first girl in September! I opened my own in home daycare in 2020 but closed to focus on baby girl. I’d love to find a family that would allow me to bring her along. I genuinely love working with children. My experience ranges from newborns to teenagers. I've even cared for children with special needs and multiples. I’ve seen and done it all!

“Michaela was really sweet with my kids— they loved having her over!”

Life Mattie 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Life, and I’m currently a senior at UC Berkeley studying Legal Studies and African American Studies. I’m offering child care, tutoring, and household support services. I am new to Urban Sitter, I have been working primarily with one family over the past 3 years who are now moving away. I enjoy working with kids and have over seven years of experience in babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and outdoor education-youth programming. I’m comfortable supporting a range of ages as well as multiple kiddos at once. I love engaging kids through creative activities, reading, outdoor time, and helping with homework or routines. I aim to create a calm, safe, and affirming environment where your child feels supported, and you feel at ease. In addition to babysitting, I’m happy to help with light household tasks, including cooking, meal prep, tidying up, organization, and running errands. I follow a whole-food lifestyle myself, and can prepare nutritious meals if needed. I’m responsible, communicative, and dependable, with strong time-management. I love dogs, and am happy to provide pet care as well. I am also a licensed driver. A little bit more about me, I am a hobby person. I love sewing, making herbal tea blends, reading, hiking, hanging out with my sister, watching sci-fi movies, and cooking. I look forward to connecting with families who value trust and reliability, and fun in their caregivers! :)

“Life has been our babysitter for the past three years, caring for our three children (now ages 10, 7, and 3), and we truly could not have asked for a better caregiver. We initially hired her through the Bambino babysitting app, and we agreed to grow together as a long-term position. I was hesitant to trust any babysitter with my 3-month-old at the time, but Life reassured me constantly through consistent, reliable, and fully present support for our family. Life regularly helped tutor our older children with schoolwork, prepared meals, and assisted with my own errands, which made an enormous difference in keeping our household running smoothly. Life actively engaged with our kids, leaning into each child’s individual interests, with focused attention and encouragement. Life balances her school commitments and professionalism exceptionally well. She respects family boundaries, communicates clearly, and maintains strong professional expectations while still creating a playful atmosphere. Her positive spirit helped bring my shy 10-year-old out of his shell. My children adore her and have grown in their confidence since she started working with us. We are only parting ways because our family is moving, and we will truly miss having Life as part of our routine. Any family would be lucky to have her.”

"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."
