Hi, my name is Maria Lopez. I’m 27 years old and I have several years of experience caring for children and assisting older adults. I’m a responsible, patient, and trustworthy person who truly enjoys helping others and creating a safe, warm environment. I recently obtained my nursing license and I’m currently in the process of transferring it to the state of California. During this time, I’m looking for a flexible nanny or caregiver position that allows me to continue with my student schedule, while supporting a family with dedication, respect, and professionalism. I would love the opportunity to become a reliable and caring part of your household.

“Maria was a pleasure to work with! She helped me with various things around the house, including laundry, dishes, and tidying up. She was prompt, hardworking, and did a great job. I will definitely have her back again!”

Hi parents, I have 15 years experience look after infants and toddlers. I worked as a nurse assistant for nine years. I took care of patients ranging from newborn babies to 15 years old. In addition, I was an au pair and lived with a family in the Bay Area for two years. I took care of their boy since he was eight months of age. After that, I have been working as a full time nanny in San Francisco with several families for about four years. Most of the time I take care of babies ranging from three months to toddlers. I am delighted to contribute to their development and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with previous families. Also, I have excellent references.

“She was absolutely wonderful. I was nervous because I only went off of the on review I had seen (which was totally positive) and she surpassed expectations. She was constantly talking to and engaging my 10 month old baby. Not only was she was skilled at caregiving but without asking her to do it my kitchen, living room, play room etc was the cleanest I had seen it. Highly recommend”

Been babysitting since I was 12! I also have worked at a Beach Camp in SoCal for 5 years and worked with kids aged 2-13. I love everything from sports to crafts. I have my own car and am a very safe driver. I am looking for babysitting jobs and nannying.

“Maddy has watched my two boys many times over the years, and they are always completely THRILLED when they know she is coming to babysit. She is kind, fun, loving, energetic and excellent at keeping kids of any age entertained. She has taught them all kinds of fun games from her days as a camp counselor and always comes ready to play! In addition to babysitting for date nights, Maddy has watched our boys for extended periods (for example a quick wine tasting afternoon), extended overnights when we are traveling, and also is super helpful as an afterschool pick-up/shuttle between sports and activities. In fact, many parents who meet her at my boys' events inquire about her availability. She is a gem!”

Hello! My name is Eva and I am 25 years old. I was born and raised in San Francisco. I come from a big family with 7 siblings with several nieces and nephews and I began babysitting at a young age. I absolutely love being around kids because they bring so much joy and positive energy. For about 2 years, I worked with kids ranging from the ages 5-10 so I learned a lot within that time. I learned how to be patient with them but also having fun with them at the same time. They bring me so much happiness and I always have a good time with them. I also have experience with toddlers and infants. I worked at a daycare for about 1 year and I was usually alone with 4 babies for a while and then 8 toddlers at another time. With the babies I would watch them, feed them, and then put them down for a nap. With the toddlers I mainly watched them play and then fed them snack. I also have previous experience with 2 families that I connected with through UrbanSitter where I would pick the kids up from school, take them to after school activities, take them home, and feed them dinner. I have a love for kids and hope that I continue to work with them in the future. Thank you for taking your time to read this and I am more than happy to answer any questions. :)

“Eva has been taking care of my clients’ 14-month-old daughter on a part-time basis since February 2024. Her work has included feeding her, playing with her, driving her to and from Montessori daycare, light housekeeping (such as laundry, dishes, disinfecting toys), bedtime routine, and helping with the family dog. She traveled with the family both domestically and internationally and was such a big help to everyone! Eva listens carefully, takes direction seamlessly, and works proactively to identify and complete tasks. She is a good driver and can be trusted to adhere to parents’ expectations. She has an incredibly calm demeanor and maintains a positive attitude, even when she’s working long days or baby girl is fussy. We recommend Eva to anyone seeking a sitter. Thanks Eva!”

"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."
