Meet Catherine, a dedicated professional nanny with expertise and a genuine passion for childcare, with two college degrees—one in Accounting and another in Fashion Design—emphasizing holistic child development with her additional certification in nutrition. In her remarkable 12-year career, Catherine has built strong relationships with several repeat families. Concurrently working with three families over nine months, she cared for children aged 9 months to 1.5 years, addressing household cleanliness and caring for pets, including dogs and backyard chickens. In another role, she spent five months nurturing a 1-year-old, dedicating 25 hours per week to create a supportive environment. Catherine's caregiving stands out with engaging activities, from park visits to craft projects like lanyard keychains, bead art, painting, and clay molding. She ensures a stimulating environment, incorporating interactive storytime, scheduled playdates, and outings to enhance social and cognitive development. Beyond caregiving, Catherine is a registered driver for HopSkipDrive, specializing in safe transportation for children aged 4 to 13. Her commitment extends to being a camp counselor at Camp Couture, teaching sewing to kids aged 7-12. Adding a musical dimension, Catherine plays bass in the rock 'n' roll band "Best Mom Ever," focusing on positive messages through songs like "Be Kind," "Be Friendly," and "Be Confident." In a personal touch, Catherine leverages her fashion design background to create personalized clothing for the children she nannies, showcasing creativity and dedication to making a lasting impact. A natural caregiver from a young age, Catherine, the oldest of two siblings and five cousins, possesses a deep understanding of childcare transcending professional expertise. Catherine brings knowledge, creativity, and a nurturing spirit to her role. Whether crafting in the kitchen, leading projects, maintaining home cleanliness, or providing safe transportation, she is committed to creating a positive, enriching experience for the children under her care.
“Cat has been the full time caregiver for my two children, for over two years. She is extremely reliable, responsible, patient and caring. She has been flexible to help with pick ups for my school aged child, and she takes our toddler to engaging and educational activities during the day. I've had multiple parents and teachers from my children's school pull me aside to tell me how wonderful and engaged Cat is. Cat consistently facilitates creative projects, like making jewelry and art. Further, Cat has a wonderful, positive attitude, that makes her a joy to be around. I highly recommend Cat.”
Vaccinated & boosted! Experienced, professional, silly, loving! Most recent background check June 2026 Red Cross Infant/Child/IAdult CPR & First Aid Certification 6/2025 Parents have called me "baby whisperer" and "Maya Poppins"; a three-year-old called me "booty butt"! I can handle anything! It is my great pride to share my resourcefulness and experience; I ask for help and clarification gladly. I've worked with children from ages 2w to 18y through the site and also seniors. From KG teacher and early childhood curriculum developer, teacher trainer and university lecturer, I've worked extensively in education. After most of a decade abroad and a wild pandemic, I just finished my doctorate in education (March 2023!). I love working with children and appreciate having a flexible schedule. With little ones, I'm silly and creative (and love to share my published children's book!). I understand tears and have the patience to soothe and work with the frustration, exhaustion, or confusion behind them. For parents, I'm super tidy, reliable, a great communicator, and have a CA driver's license! I have lived and worked all over the world and have a social justice mindset that informs my life and work. Also available for high-end tutoring, development evaluations (ages 2-6), middle/upper grade social services, and personal assistant services at other rates.
Dear families, My name is Stephanie, I have been working as a nanny for the past twelve years. I absolutely love children of all ages. My experience includes infants, toddlers, elementary school children, and teenagers. I am very good at creating different activities with the kids, making sure they are happy and enjoy their time :) To ensure quality care and planning, I kindly ask for a minimum booking of 4 hours. Policies Early Return: If parents arrive home early or let me go early, the full booking amount will still apply. This ensures that my time is respected and that I can plan my day around your booking. Cancellation: Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the booking will be charged the full amount. I kindly ask that payment be completed at the end of each shift. Thank you! Thank you for understanding!
I am fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Please note- I have a 4 hour job minimum! My name is Gabrielle, and I am interested in babysitting for your family. I have over 14 years of experience taking care of newborns, infants, toddlers, elementary school aged children, middle school aged children, preteens, and teenagers. I have provided childcare to over 300 families. I am a reliable, fun, patient, friendly, responsible, and caring babysitter. I have lots of experience babysitting multiple children at a time (up to 5 kids). I have experience feeding newborns, changing diapers, giving and making bottles, cooking meals, getting children ready for bed and putting them in bed, creating exciting games, driving children, and much more. I have great references available upon request. I am CPR and first aid certified for babies through adults by the American Heart Association. I have experience being a summer camp counselor during the summer of 2014, in which I led several games and age appropriate activities for campers. I am a huge fan of the outdoors and do think the outdoors is a great place for discovery and learning, as I enjoy taking kids to playgrounds, museums, libraries, etc in the Bay Area. I am also a fan of music, acting, and arts and crafts. I know of several simple and appropriate art projects for children of all ages and abilities. I do not mind doing light chores such as dishes and laundry. I own a car, and I transport myself to and from jobs. I am able to drive children to and from activities. I have a clean driving record and am fully insured. A little bit about me... I am a San Francisco native. I am a graduate of the University of Nevada and currently working in finance. I hope to fulfill my lifelong dream of working with children for many more years to come. I enjoy watching children grow and mature, as well as creating awesome relationships with families. I have enjoyed babysitting over the years and truly enjoy the opportunity to make a positive impact on a child's life. Thank you so much, and I hope to babysit for your family!

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
