Booked by 9 families in San Lorenzo, CA

Greetings families! My name is Samantha but you all can call me Sam. I have been a career nanny for 10+ years. And have experience working with newborns, infant, toddlers, and older children all around. Plus, a background with children diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. I am transitioning to being a postpartum doula and newborn care specialist. Currently in the process of becoming certified with DONA International by the end of 2023. Am mom to a pitbull mix doggo and a domestic short hair kitty. :)

“Sam was wonderful! She was prompt, professional, an excellent communicator, and she was terrific with my young toddler. I had never had a sitter before so I was incredibly nervous but I felt immediately comfortable leaving my kid with Sam. She updated us via text to let us know how it was going. Sam listened closely to any instructions I left, and followed them closely and respectfully, and let me know each thing was clear and understood. She was terrific playing with my toddler and I'd be thrilled to book her in the future.”

Hi my name is Sydney and I am currently finishing my program to become an SLPA, which now requires most of my day to be spent completing my clinical hours. I am looking for opportunities, mostly in the morning, to supplement those unpaid internship hours. As for my experience, I worked at an elementary school as a literacy teacher for the past three years giving me lots of experience working with children ages 5-11. On the weekend I coach soccer for kids ages 2-7 and have currently been working with a family in the evenings for the past two years (ages 5 & 3). Additionally, I have experience looking after pets, specifically cats and dogs and supporting families with other household tasks. I enjoy getting to engage in creative, active and educational activities with kids while learning how to best support their growth.

Hi! My name is Yasmine. I have hands-on experience working with children as a daycare assistant, where I helped with daily routines like feeding, playtime, and nap schedules. I love creating a safe, caring, and fun environment where kids can feel supported and thrive. I'm currently taking a class to become a hairstylist and working on getting my CPR and First Aid certification. I'm always looking to grow and learn new skills—especially ones that help me care for others. In my free time, I enjoy going to the gym, reading, spending time with my family, and deepening my relationship with God. I also love animals and would be happy to help care for family pets! I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy caregiving—whether it’s for children, seniors, or pets. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and make your child’s day a little brighter!

“Yasmine is wonderful. She was so engaging and confident with our kids and jumped right in to get to know them and play with them. Our toddlers really loved having her here. And she tidied up our home too. She has a very calm and caring presence. We will definitely be reaching out to Yasmine again in the future.”

Raquel 5 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with children for 10 years, from newborns to teenagers. I have supported many families as a Newborn Care Specialist, and I currently work in an after-school daycare program with children ages 0 to 4 years, which allows me to have daytime availability for full-time nanny positions. I love dogs and am very punctual, reliable, and communicative.

“Raquel took care of my daughter Alice for a little over a month, and I only have positive things to say! She is extremely responsible, caring, and has excellent communication with parents. At first, my daughter cried a lot because she struggles with being away from me, but Raquel was very patient and managed to gain both her trust and mine. She was always attentive and often did even more than what we had agreed upon when it came to Alice’s care. It was truly a wonderful experience having her with us, and I’m only sad that our schedules no longer align. I highly recommend her!”

Booked by 2 families in San Lorenzo, CA

Hello! I’m currently looking to offer support with child care, senior care, household help or pet services. I am located in Oakland! I have over 10 years of babysitting experience and recently became an aunt! I worked for 4 years in Vietnam teaching English and cooking classes to children of all ages! I also have more than 5 years of senior care experience. I cared for a senior neighbor during her final years, as well as my grandfather who lived with my family. I truly value spending time with seniors. Around the house, I’m happy to help with chores, organization, decluttering and cleaning — I love to bring some calm to a once hectic space! And as a pet parent to three cats, I love pets of all kinds. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing or taking your pets for a walk, I’d enjoy doing it all. In my free time, I enjoy sewing, knitting, and working on DIY projects — I love anything creative and hands-on. I also make time for outdoor exercise, whether it’s hiking, biking, or just soaking up some sunshine. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your day a little easier. Monica

“Extremely professional. Really helpful. Reliable and autonomous with appropriate level of inclusion”

"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."
