Booked by 124 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi, I’m Beatriz from Brazil, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children. I began my journey in Rio de Janeiro, where I studied graphic design at university and worked as a part time camp assistant at an after school program. In 2018, I moved to California to improve my English and further my education through courses in arts, communication and kids development. From 2018 to 2021, I worked with the FR family, caring for their four children. This role strengthened my ability to manage the needs of multiple children of different ages. My daily responsibilities included drive, planning engaging activities, and supporting them with homework and online learning. From 2021 to 2023 I began working with the B family, caring for their two children—one of whom is autistic, while the other had limited social interaction due to lockdowns. My focus was on tutoring, enhancing their school performance, and supporting their motor and social development. Since January 2024, I have been working with the C family, who have three children, including a 15 month-old baby. This role has significantly enhanced my skills in caring for both infants and toddlers simultaneously. I am primarily responsible for managing afternoon activities, evening/night routine, preparing meals, and assisting with various household tasks as a family assistant. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

“Beatriz was awesome and hit it off with our baby immediately! She's super helpful, proactive and immediately adapted to our family. Very proactive and super-pleasant to have around! Strongly recommended.”

Booked by 46 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Chelsea and I live in the Castro. I studied Psychology at San Francisco State and have always had a special interest in child development. I am the eldest of six and have extensive experience working with children of all ages. Before I moved to the Bay Area, I worked as a household manager/nanny for entrepreneurs, an overnight nanny for a nurse, and as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) working with children with behavioral difficulties and developmental disabilities providing ABA therapy. In addition, I’ve worked intermittently as a sitter over the last 13 years, as a classroom aide (K-3), a summer camp counselor for middle school age children, a private reading tutor, and a dog walker. I have also held numerous part-time nanny positions throughout the city as well as been a full-time nanny for a family while living in their downstairs unit. Since moving to the Bay Area in 2019 I have had the pleasure of working with a number of different families. Some of my duties have included school and activity pick-ups/drop-offs, preparing healthy meals, bathing, running errands, cleaning, homework support, and providing a hug and comfort when needed. My favorite part about working with kids is helping them reach their potential. I am big on promoting learning at every opportunity through music, art, and exploring the world around us. Celebrating success is one of my favorite parts of my work. I love promoting and reinforcing hard work, while also being supportive during times of struggle. I specifically enjoy creating learning games to build academic skills while being engaging and exciting. I spend a significant amount of my free time learning about best practices in promoting healthy eating, emotional development, and self esteem in kids. I do not consider myself to be a pushover, but at the same time I am not harsh or mean. When I worked as an RBT, my supervisors described me as being very patient and consistent. A bit about me: I have lived in SF, Larkspur, and Petaluma, and love what both the city and Marin have to offer. On weekends I enjoy spending my time hiking all over Marin, or taking my German Shepherd to the beach to play catch with a frisbee. When I’m not outside, I enjoy learning new songs to sing to on the piano and ukulele and reading books on personal development.

Booked by 48 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hello my name is Kiara, I am 26 years old. I have tons of experience baby sitting and nannying children from newborns to 12 years old! I speak English and Spanish fluently and know a bit of ASL and Portuguese as I am still learning. I have my own car and license since I was 16, a clean record no tickets or accidents at all! I am adult and pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified. Fully vaccinated. I also have credits in child development. School is currently on my pause as I want to pursue becoming a birth/postpartum doula first but my major of study is psychology focusing on children as I want to become a child psychologist in the long run. I was a live in nanny to an amazing European family with 2 boys in San Diego. A live in nanny to a family in Chino and night nanny/ travel nanny to the sweetest non verbal boy in West Covina as well. I have also had plenty of short term families all over the U.S since I tend to travel a lot and babysit everywhere I go which leads to me being an au pair in New Zealand, Spain and Brazil! I also worked as a behavior interventionist for children on the autism spectrum and as a teacher assistant at a daycare. I also spent some time working with elderly and hospice patients. I have experience with ADHD children, twins, potty training and administering medication (pills and injections)

“Kiara was warm and jumped right in to play with our boys and read to them when she arrived. Would hire her again!”

Booked by 5 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi, I’m Dilan, an Ecuadorian architect and educator with experience in extracurricular activities; I’ve been working in the New School of SF with children for over five years. I lead a wide range of activities, including motor skill development, math, handwriting, and dance (I am a professional dancer and a member of a dance troupe Instagram: @chekumbe). I have worked with children with autism and anxiety; this experience has taught me how to understand them and view the world from a different perspective. I currently assist two families on a regular basis, handling cooking (I managed a family restaurant in Ecuador), deep cleaning the home (I am very meticulous about cleanliness), running errands, and childcare. I am physically capable of moving heavy objects and am an excellent "manny." I treat children with love and respect, and I am an animal lover: I have three dogs at home (one is 14 years old) and a rescued cat. I enjoy sports and have been living in the United States for a year and a half. I speak English (though I am still learning), Spanish is my native language, and I speak a little Portuguese. I am dedicated to teaching, fostering respect and tolerance, and building wonderful bonds with children. I also have crafting skills—such as sewing, macramé, knitting, and embroidery; you can check out my Instagram @smeraudes to see and buy the amazing things I create. I would love to meet you and help out in any way I can.

"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."
