I am fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Please note- I have a 4 hour job minimum! My name is Gabrielle, and I am interested in babysitting for your family. I have over 14 years of experience taking care of newborns, infants, toddlers, elementary school aged children, middle school aged children, preteens, and teenagers. I have provided childcare to over 300 families. I am a reliable, fun, patient, friendly, responsible, and caring babysitter. I have lots of experience babysitting multiple children at a time (up to 5 kids). I have experience feeding newborns, changing diapers, giving and making bottles, cooking meals, getting children ready for bed and putting them in bed, creating exciting games, driving children, and much more. I have great references available upon request. I am CPR and first aid certified for babies through adults by the American Heart Association. I have experience being a summer camp counselor during the summer of 2014, in which I led several games and age appropriate activities for campers. I am a huge fan of the outdoors and do think the outdoors is a great place for discovery and learning, as I enjoy taking kids to playgrounds, museums, libraries, etc in the Bay Area. I am also a fan of music, acting, and arts and crafts. I know of several simple and appropriate art projects for children of all ages and abilities. I do not mind doing light chores such as dishes and laundry. I own a car, and I transport myself to and from jobs. I am able to drive children to and from activities. I have a clean driving record and am fully insured. A little bit about me... I am a San Francisco native. I am a graduate of the University of Nevada and currently working in finance. I hope to fulfill my lifelong dream of working with children for many more years to come. I enjoy watching children grow and mature, as well as creating awesome relationships with families. I have enjoyed babysitting over the years and truly enjoy the opportunity to make a positive impact on a child's life. Thank you so much, and I hope to babysit for 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."
