Booked by 10 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello, I'm Caley and I have lived in SF for a decade now! I used to babysit while I was younger and help volunteer at elementary school/library during my time off during summers in college. I'm reliable and work well with any range of child or dog breed. I work full time so looking for positions thats are evening or weekends only. I love to swim and happy to take kids to either the kiddie pool at the rec and park in the Mission or Hamilton. I also enjoy going the library and happy to walk to a close location with kids as well.

โ€œWould recommend! Caley was communicative, warm, and our kids enjoyed her.โ€

โ€œAnna is an amazing sitter, I can't say enough good things about her. She was so engaging with my *very* active 6 year old. My kid really liked her and he even said she helped him navigate a social situation in the park when some kids were not being nice. Anna is warm, creative, and responsible, and one of the best caregivers I've seen. โ€

"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."
