Hi! My name is Valentina, and I have over 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to 10 years old. I’ve worked as an au pair, full-time nanny, part-time nanny, and occasional babysitter, which has allowed me to adapt to different family routines and children’s needs. I am a patient, loving, responsible, and reliable caregiver. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and feel supported. I have experience with newborn care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, sleep routines, preparing healthy meals and snacks, potty training, educational and sensory activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping children reach their developmental milestones. I’m also comfortable with light housekeeping related to the children, including washing bottles, children’s laundry, tidying play areas, and keeping their spaces organized. I truly love working with children and building trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I always strive to communicate openly with families and provide the best care possible. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

Hi! I am a young professional working in biotechnology. I started babysitting 7 years ago when I was in college and immediately realized how much I enjoy it! I am also a youth girls softball coach and umpire. I believe that kids should be in an environment where they can expand their minds while having fun! As a sitter, I am attentive and engage with kids, always joining to play imaginative games, sports, dolls, or whatever they are passionate about! In my free time I like to rock climb, play board games, play with my dog, and do embroidery. I have just moved to San Francisco and am looking to build my clientele base! I moved away from a few great families in Los Angeles but am excited to meet new ones! Note: I'm not currently responding to messages from Wellthy here. Other messages are welcome. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Hello everyone! My name is Andrea, and I recently graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Bioinformatics and a minor in Human Development.I’m open to opportunities throughout the Bay Area, including live-in positions, date-night gigs, full-time roles, or multiple part-time positions. I have over seven years of experience working with families as a babysitter, nanny, tutor, and household manager. My experience ranges from occasional/date-night care to long-term family support. I am Red Cross certified in Babysitting, CPR, and First Aid, and I am currently completing my CNA certification. Over the past year, I have also completed Newborn Care Specialist coursework and am actively working toward certification hours. I have experience caring for children from 6 weeks to 11 years old, as well as tutoring students ages 5–17 across K–12 subjects. I speak conversational Spanish and would be happy to incorporate language learning into daily activities with your children. My approach to childcare is calm, attentive, and highly engaged. I value gentle parenting principles and draw inspiration from Montessori and RIE philosophies. In addition to childcare, I’m very comfortable assisting with household management tasks, anticipating parents’ needs, maintaining routines, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I also absolutely love pets and am very comfortable around animals. I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and am comfortable traveling as needed. I also understand the importance of professionalism, discretion, and respecting families’ privacy, and I have previous experience working with high-profile families under confidentiality agreements. Excellent references are available upon request. I truly enjoy building long-term relationships with families and creating a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and cared for. I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit 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."

"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."
