Booked by 3 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi all! I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate, and I’m also very passionate about Education and child-care which is why I’ve been tutoring, mentoring and babysitting for a while. At my most previous job, I worked at a Montessori school where I was an assistant teacher. I developed and implemented lesson plans and curriculum with assistance from Head teacher and learned to create a safe learning environment by establishing classroom rules and ensuring students follow behavioral standards. I love nannying and learning about how every child’s mind is unique. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and hanging out with family. I have references and a resume if needed.

“ Wonderful Babysitter with a Positive Attitude I've had the pleasure of having Amanda as my child's babysitter, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Amanda consistently brings a positive attitude to her work, which instantly puts my child at ease. She's incredibly thoughtful and attentive to my child's needs, always ensuring that they are comfortable and happy. I appreciate how proactive she is in engaging my child in fun and educational activities. Amanda is truly a gem, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring .”

Hi! I’m Maria I’m 24, bilingual in Spanish and English, and I’ve been babysitting and nannying since I was 14. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids, and I truly enjoy being someone families can rely on. Growing up in a big family, I’m comfortable in busy households and know how to keep kids engaged while making sure their routines stay on track. I love doing crafts, playing games, going on walks or outings, helping with homework, preparing meals, and simply making everyday moments fun and positive. I’m also happy to help with meal prep, children’s laundry, light housekeeping, organizing, errands, and pet care when needed. I’d describe myself as reliable, patient, caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children, and I always do my best to create a safe, positive, and welcoming environment. I’m happy to provide references and would love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!

I grew up in Nebraska with my mother having an in-home daycare and helped out with it after school and during the summer(from age 10 or 11 till 19 when I moved to California) I nannied a few summers and worked for a group home for mentally disabled teens and adults. Once I moved to California I worked at the daycare in 24 hour fitness. I then nannied for a child from 14months till about 2 and a half. He sadly (for me) went to Montessori School full time. I then jumped back into working with adults with disabilities. Then I worked with a kid with disabilities for a few years and moved onto a school. Which I currently do now I work in a sped classroom in an elementary school.

“We loved her. She was so relaxed and confident around our son and he loved her right away. I strongly recommend her and will definitely use her again”

"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."
