Alsu $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Ally, and I studied education at university, giving me a strong foundation in child development and age-appropriate learning. I love working with kids and have cared for three toddlers at once, keeping them engaged, safe, and having fun throughout the day. I’m patient, attentive, and great at turning everyday moments into hands-on learning opportunities. I’m also bilingual in English and Russian, so I can bring some language exposure into playtime if that’s ever useful for a family. Families can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and genuinely invested in their child’s wellbeing.

Claudia $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Francisco, CA

Hello families and all! My name is Claudia, I am 24 years old and looking for my next family/families to support. I am a lover of all kinds; art, music, books, yoga, outdoor activities, and more. My friends describe me as outgoing, friendly, and a true “big sister” archetype. Throughout my life I have been a full time nanny for a range of ages, not only that but I have worked in preschools as well as before and afterschool program directing. Since moving to San Francisco, I established myself through working service jobs and getting to know the community more. And now I feel ready to establish myself within the nannying community as I don’t feel too new to the area anymore! With me as your nanny, caretaker, and familial support, I will not only nurture your child’s growth but I enjoy providing enrichment with art projects, music, and encouraging creativity in the mundane everyday. I am organized and great at keeping a schedule, and can help support you and your child’s schedules (ie: sleep, eating, sports or extra circulars, and more.) Not only that, but if comfortable with the family I am also willing to do fun field trips to the parks, beach, exploratorium or things of that nature! Contact me with more information of you and your child’s needs, and let’s see if we can become mutually beneficial supports to one another!

$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Francisco, CA

Hello Families, I have over 7 years of experience caring for children from 6 months to 9 years old. I love creating fun, safe, and engaging days for children through reading books, arts and crafts, acrylic painting, music time, baking simple recipes together, outdoor play, and visits to parks, playgrounds, libraries, and museums. I also enjoy supporting early learning by helping children develop language, social, and problem solving skills through play and daily activities. I am patient, caring, reliable, and organized, and I truly enjoy building warm and loving relationships with the children and families I work with. My goal is always to create a positive environment where children feel safe, happy, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. Best, Nagihan

“Nagihan was amazing! She was so attentive and helpful. Our kids were happy and clean (and so was our house!) when we got home. it’s nice to find good ppl like this on the app. My daughter wants Nagihan to braid her hair again. (She never lets me, her mom, do it.) Thanks Nagihan!”

Saidi $30 per hour for 1 child

I have a strong background in caring for children and supporting seniors with patience, compassion, and respect. As a mother, I have hands-on experience caring for my child, understanding children’s needs, creating a safe environment, and supporting their emotional and educational development. I have also helped care for my elderly family member, which taught me the importance of kindness, attention, and dignity when assisting seniors. My qualifications include experience in hospitality, customer service, and working with people from different backgrounds. These experiences helped me develop strong communication skills, responsibility, organization, and the ability to stay calm in different situations. My personality traits that make me a great caregiver are being caring, patient, reliable, trustworthy, and a good listener. I pay attention to details and I always try to make people feel comfortable, respected, and valued. My talents include connecting easily with people, providing emotional support, helping with daily needs, and creating a positive and safe atmosphere. I believe caregiving is more than just helping someone—it is about building trust, showing compassion, and making a meaningful difference in someone’s life.

"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."
