Dakota Santa Cruz
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Dakota. I’m 18 years old and recently moved to Santa Cruz in December. Working with kids is something I genuinely love and have been doing for most of my life. Prior to moving to Santa Cruz, I was a huge part of raising and caring for my niece (7), nephew (8), and little sister who turns 3 this year. Being around kids has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, loving, and supportive environment where they feel comfortable being themselves. I also previously cared for a family with a 1-year-old and a 3 year old, which gave me even more hands-on experience with different ages, routines, and personalities. I’m very active and love getting kids outside for walks, park trips, beach days, and little adventures, but I also love slower indoor activities like painting, coloring, puzzles, play dough, reading stories, and creative play. I’m totally comfortable with low or zero screen time, but I’m also flexible with whatever works best for your family! A little about me, I have my license, a clean driving record, and a reliable SUV. I graduated high school in June 2025 and eventually plan to attend cosmetology school, but for now I’m focused on working and finding a family that feels like a great fit. I’d love to hear more about your routines and what’s most important to you in a nanny/caregiver. I’m extremely patient, warm, affectionate, dependable, and always willing to ask questions to make sure I’m supporting your family the best way possible. I’m not CPR certified yet, but I’m absolutely willing to get certified. I’m also flexible with scheduling as long as there’s communication in advance. I’d love to connect more and hear about your family! Please feel free to ask me any questions at all. I look forward to hearing from you!

My goal is to make sure your kids are happy, healthy, and tired by the time you get home! I have 3+ years of experience with children aged 1-12.

Alexandra Soquel
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Alexandra! I recently graduated with a B. S. in Cell and Molecular Biology and am currently looking for babysitting or childcare opportunities as I prepare to welcome my own baby this November. I plan to return to my field afterward, but for now, I'd love to support families through childcare or tutoring. I have years of independent childcare experience and recently worked at the Early Childhood Education Center at San Francisco State. I've taken courses in early childhood development and enjoy working with kids of all ages. I find childcare to be incredibly fulfilling. Being part of a child's growth and learning is both rewarding and fascinating. I love supporting families and watching children explore, grow, and overcome challenges. It's meaningful work that I truly value. I enjoy engaging in activities that make learning fun and meaningful for children. With younger age groups, I love incorporating playful learning through songs, stories, and hands-on activities. I also enjoy baking simple recipes together, exploring nature at local parks, and doing creative arts and crafts that allow children to express themselves and build fine motor skills. One thing you should know about me is that I'm very respectful of the different values, routines, and parenting styles that each family has. I always do my best to follow your preferences and support your household in a way that feels consistent, thoughtful, and aligned with your needs.

"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."
