Hello, My name is Opal. I live in Redwood City and currently work as a Family Assistant in the area. I’m looking to add more hours to my schedule—approximately 20 hours per week in March and around 30 hours per week starting in April. My schedule is flexible, and I am available to start the week of March 16th. Family Assistance (4 years of experience) I can help with meal prep (lunch and dinner), keeping the home organized and tidy, reorganizing children’s closets, sorting outgrown clothes for donation, and running household errands. I’m also happy to handle grocery shopping (Whole Foods pickup, Trader Joe’s, Costco), return packages, and take the family car for maintenance. I’m very organized and also enjoy cooking, especially Thai food. Pet Care I’m comfortable helping with pet care, including feeding, walking, taking pets to grooming or vet appointments, and picking up pet supplies. Childcare (11 years of experience) I have extensive childcare experience, including 5+ years caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. I am Infant CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated with boosters, and have received my flu shot and TDAP. I truly enjoy working with children and love engaging them through reading, singing, playing, and outdoor activities such as going to the park, library, and museums. I have my own car, a California driver’s license with a clean driving record, and can safely drive children using the family car. I’m a fun, punctual, reliable, patient, flexible, and positive person who loves both children and animals. I’m happy to provide references upon request. Rate: $38–$40 per hour. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Opal

“Here's a review for Jane: Jane has been wonderful with our kids, and we feel so lucky to have found her! She's organized, friendly, and incredibly warm. Our 2-year-old is usually very reserved with strangers, but warmed up to her right away, and our 4-year-old absolutely adores her — she even saved the sticker Jane gave her. They spend their days playing with lots of toys and activities, both indoors and at the playground. Jane is also very responsive, keeping us updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. We couldn't recommend her more!”

Hello, I'm Stephany, a 28-year-old Brazilian living in the USA. I have a driver's license and am CPR certified, ensuring I'm prepared for emergencies. I also have my own car and a clean record. I'm patient, easygoing, and love spending time outdoors, whether it's walking, biking, or visiting parks. I have over five years of experience working with children. I used to work in a school back in Brazil, where I looked after more than 15 kids at a time. During the pandemic, I started caring for two children at my home. One was just 5 months old, and the other was 4 years old. I took care of them for a year and a half before moving to another country. In addition, I have two years of experience as an au pair, where I focused on studying behavior and discipline management, effective communication, child development, and time management. I'm passionate about caregiving because I find immense joy and fulfillment in nurturing and supporting others. Witnessing the growth and development of children is incredibly rewarding to me. I also love animals and have two dogs. Thank you for considering me.

"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."
