Hello! My name is Vera. I live in Palo Alto and I have two grown, wonderful children. I immigrated from Ukraine 27 years ago and speak fluent Ukrainian and Russian. I am looking for a small part-time job and occasional babysitting gigs. I have years of babysitting experience ranging from all ages and I have several references available upon request. I am very friendly, dependable, creative, and punctual. I enjoy being active (doing anything outdoors), walking in the park, making arts and crafts, and spending time with my family. I am usually available at last notice as well, if needed. I made this account a couple of years ago and am just getting back to it after being away and working with different families. I have my own, reliable car and have no difficulties with transportation.

“Vera is wonderful. She quickly connected to my child and kept him engaged.”

"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."
