Olevia $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi prospective families! My name is Olevia, and I’ve been a nanny for nearly five years. I have experience with children ranging from infancy to high school, though most of my background is with infants and toddlers. I graduated from the University of Arizona with my Bachelor of Science in Public Health and have recently been accepted into graduate school, where I will be pursuing my Master of Public Health in Health Policy. I am currently a nanny for a sweet 21-month-old boy, whom I’ve been with since he was 10 months old. This is the third family I’ve had the pleasure of working with through UrbanSitter. I’m now looking to pick up additional babysitting hours as I prepare to begin graduate school and continue supporting myself through my education. I’m originally from Oakland and grew up throughout the Bay Area. I began working in childcare during college, nannying and tutoring through local agencies. During summers, I worked as a camp counselor at my former elementary and middle school, averaging 35 hours a week. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also helped my sister care for her now 4-month-old daughter since birth while her husband is deployed in the Air Force. I grew up playing competitive sports, primarily basketball, and I value staying active. I enjoy getting kids outside, going on walks, and planning age-appropriate activities that keep them engaged. I also love cooking and am happy to help with meal prep for children and families. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I aim to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for every child I care for. I look forward to connecting with your family!

Saba $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Saba I enjoy taking care of babies and younger children. I have a high school diploma and have 35 years of experience watching children. I am a loving caring mother of 3 children ages 35 31 and 24. I take care of children like they are mine. Every child that I have taken care of looks at me like their second mother or grandmother. I love watching kids because we create a bond that’s personal and loving and I get to watch them grow up as if they were my own. I have light housekeeping experience while the babies or children are asleep if need be. I love to keep them busy by doing activities, storytime and I always follow family instructions. Hopefully I can experience being your child’s nanny.

Marleane $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Lorenzo, CA

I have a strong background in childcare, with paid experience through Jovie, PJCC Treehouse, and College Nannies and Sitters. I’ve cared for children of different ages and supported families with daily routines such as meal preparation, playtime, homework help, and nap or bedtime schedules. I’m comfortable following family guidelines while being flexible and attentive to each child’s needs. I’m patient, dependable, and naturally nurturing, which helps me build trust with both children and parents. I take safety and communication seriously and stay calm and organized in busy situations. In addition to childcare, I can provide household support such as housesitting and running errands, and pet sitting when needed. My goal is to help families feel supported while creating a safe, engaging, and positive environment for children.

Cheyanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Cheyanne, a college student studying pre-nursing with a dream of becoming a Labor & Delivery nurse. Caring for others isn't just something I do, it's genuinely who I am. I've been a trusted caregiver for over 10 years, looking after my nieces, nephews, and children of extended family and friends from infancy through school age. I grew up fast and took on a nurturing, reliable role with my siblings from a young age, and that sense of responsibility has only grown stronger over time. Families know me as someone who shows up, stays calm, and genuinely invests in the children I care for. Professionally, I'm currently volunteering weekly in a NICU, where I spend time reading to newborns and infants who are navigating serious illnesses and medical challenges during their earliest days of life. It's taught me patience, gentleness, and a deep attentiveness to the needs of the most vulnerable little ones and it's one of the most meaningful things I do. Reading has always been a passion of mine, so getting to share that with babies who need comfort and connection feels like exactly where I'm supposed to be. I also have volunteered with the East Oakland Collective for the past few years, a community organization dedicated to supporting Oakland's most vulnerable residents. It's an experience that has deepened my empathy and commitment to showing up consistently for others. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to help with cooking, light household tasks, or errands — whatever makes your family's day run a little smoother. When I'm not caregiving or studying, you'll find me reading, writing, or staying active. I'm a former track athlete and exercise is still a big part of my life. I also keep a Substack as a creative outlet and a way to express myself. I'm a big believer that curiosity, movement, and storytelling are all gifts worth nurturing in children too. What sets me apart is the heart I bring to this work. My nursing path has shaped me into someone who is compassionate, patient, and dependable, and I take that same standard of care into every family I work with. I'd love the opportunity to be someone your family can genuinely count on!

"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."
