Hi, my name is Melissa! I’m a caring and responsible person with experience working with both children and pets. I enjoy building positive connections, whether it’s supporting kids with schoolwork, engaging them in fun activities, or making sure pets get the exercise and attention they need. I’ve mentored students and worked with children of different ages, helping with homework, planning activities, and encouraging their growth. I’m also a dog owner myself, so I understand the importance of regular walks, playtime, and keeping pets safe and happy. I’m comfortable with kids of all ages as well as pets of different sizes and breeds, and I always bring patience, energy, and reliability to the families I work with.

“Melissa was reliable and easy to work with. My daughter enjoyed her company and the outing went smoothly. Would book again.”

Hi Parents, My name is Dani, and I’m a responsible and experienced caregiver with excellent references. While I have a special passion for working with babies aged 0-2 years, I bring over 8 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including multiples. Parents trust me, and I form loving, affectionate bonds with all the children I care for. I’m an easygoing person who loves to take little ones on outdoor adventures to nature parks, zoos, museums, story times, and playgrounds. I focus on helping them grow up to be kind and gentle individuals, ensuring their experiences are always fun and enriching. I engage with children actively, encouraging and supporting them to reach their next milestones, all while prioritizing their safety and well-being.

Hi there! My name is Larissa, I’m 27 years old and I'm from Brazil. I'm an experienced care provider living in the Sunset District .

The two previous families I have worked with had multiple kids ( between 04 months old to 6 years old). I’m comfortable caring for more than one child at a time. I'm a very active person. I love spending the day out with the kids in the park, library, museums, zoo and etc. I drive my own car with my currently nanny family and I feel comfortable driving kids to any classes or activities they might have. I’m a loving and caring person and I love to help the kids learn and explore in a safe, warm and joyful environment. Arts and Crafts, age-appropriate cooking, and a storytelling are some of my favorite activities. -I’m also experienced with sleep training, starting babies on solid food and helping them learn how to crawl, walk and develop new skills. -I’m a good driver and I have a California DL (+7 years driving ) -I'm comfortable with cats and dogs -I’m CPR certified -I’m fully vaccinated -I have great references -I’m open to nanny share - I’m available for a full time job starting September 14th.

"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."
