Kahari $15 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and compassionate college student pursuing a degree in Public Health, with hands-on experience caring for individuals across all stages of life, including children, adults, seniors, pets, and households. My background in the health field has given me both the technical skills and emotional awareness needed to provide safe, reliable, and empathetic care. I understand that caregiving is not just about completing tasks, but about building trust, showing patience, and creating a supportive environment where others feel valued and respected. My caregiving journey began shortly after graduating high school, when I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in a nursing home. In this role, I provided direct care to seniors, assisting with daily living activities, mobility, personal hygiene, and emotional support. This experience taught me responsibility, professionalism, and the importance of dignity and compassion in caregiving. Working closely with seniors helped me develop strong communication skills and an understanding of the physical, emotional, and social challenges that can come with aging. In addition to senior care, I have extensive experience working with children. I currently teach and supervise summer camps for children ages 3 to 16, where I am responsible for creating a safe, engaging, and inclusive environment. Through this work, I have developed strong skills in leadership, patience, creativity, and conflict resolution. I enjoy supporting children’s growth, encouraging learning through play, and helping them feel confident and cared for. My ability to adapt to different age groups allows me to meet each child’s unique needs while maintaining structure and fun. I am also a genuine animal lover and feel very comfortable caring for pets. I understand that pets are family members, and I approach pet care with the same responsibility, patience, and affection that I bring to human caregiving. I enjoy spending time with furry friends, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I love reptiles as well I have a crested geico! Personality-wise, I am a caring, positive, and approachable individual who enjoys helping others. I love to laugh, connect with people, and bring warmth into the spaces I work in. I understand that life comes with challenges, and my experiences have taught me empathy, resilience, and gratitude. I am thankful for where I am today and motivated to give back through meaningful work that supports others.

i was born in San francisco and have lived most of my life in the Bay Area. i have been a nanny for 16 years and can’t think of doing anything else. the first part of my nanny career was with specific families. although after covid i started working with Care.com as a temporary nanny. the ages range from 6 mos to teenage years. i love doing projects with my kids from puzzles to baking cookies. i’m easy going and kid’s generally gravitate towards me

“Margaret is absolutely amazing. We have welcomed Margaret over 15x into our home to watch our daughter. She did such a great job engaging with our toddler, often we’d come home to find them together reading on the floor together or playing with toys. Margaret is extremely professional and we never had any issues. It is great to have someone reliable that we trust in our home. Our daughter is always excited to see Margaret!”

I am a law degree holder with 9 units in Early Childhood Education and several years of experience working with children. My background gives me a unique balance of professionalism, responsibility, and a strong understanding of child development. I truly enjoy supporting children in their growth, whether through educational activities, creative play, or helping them build confidence in their daily routines. I have worked with kids in different age groups and know how important it is to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel valued.

Alexa $32 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, dependable mom who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would want for my own. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and love creating fun, age-appropriate experiences for kids. Whether it’s an active day at a local park, playing outside, getting creative with crafts and watercolor painting, reading, or enjoying a quiet activity, I’m happy to meet each child where they are. I can also prepare basic meals, help tidy up, and I’m a big animal lover, so pets are no problem! Most importantly, I want parents to have peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, cared for, and having a genuinely good time while they’re away.

Hello - my name is Angela, and I recently moved to the Bay from South Texas. I’m an experienced caregiver and educator with a background in youth programming, education, and nonprofit work. I’ve worked with children of all ages as a YMCA lead teacher, Parks and Recreation after-school counselor, culinary center teacher, and tutor over the past 10 years. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to provide pet care and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and breeds. I am an experienced Rover sitter and dog owner and am comfortable taking them on walks or hanging out with them in your home. I’m also available to assist with senior care including meal preparation, errands, light housekeeping, and transportation to appointments. My goal is to create a safe, positive environment where children, pets, and older adults feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I look forward to getting to know 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."

"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."
