Gözde $35 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced caregiver, arts education teacher and social entrepreneur. I’ve been working at the Children’s Montessori House of the West Coast as an enrichment teacher for the last 8 years. I’m warm, patient, emotionally intelligent and highly organized. I love dogs, have my own and am a resident of the presidio working with a few schools in our neighborhood. I have wonderful references. I’m looking to add part-time hours.

Marney $30 per hour for 1 child

I bring over a decade of experience working with children, including many years substituting at Marin Horizon School in Mill Valley—my alma mater and a place that deeply shaped my love of learning and community. As the daughter of a middle school teacher, care, education, and emotional attunement have been woven into my life from an early age. I have extensive hands-on experience with toddlers and young children, and I’m known for creating a warm, calm, and engaging environment where little ones feel safe, seen, and supported. Alongside childcare, I regularly pet sit and genuinely love caring for animals, bringing the same level of attentiveness and affection to every being in my care. I’m a naturally compassionate and nurturing person who finds joy in supporting growth—whether that’s through play, learning, or simply being a steady, present companion. I’m also deeply curious and intellectually engaged: I speak four languages, have lived for several years in Germany and Italy, and hold a Master’s degree in American History. I approach caregiving with both heart and intention, offering a balance of reliability, warmth, and thoughtful presence.

Purity $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm originally from Kenya and now living in California. I'm fluent in English and three additional Kenyan languages. I truly enjoy working with children and have hands-on experience caring for three kids in my family-two from infancy through their teenage years, and one from birth to age three. These experiences taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating a healthy, positive environment for children to grow in. I'm a fast learner, reliable, and always happy to help make a family's day-to-day life easier. I also hold a valid driver's license, own car and I have six years of prior driving experience, and I am fully vaccinated. I'd love to bring my warmth, responsibility, and dedication to a family looking for dependable childcare support.

"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."
