Booked by 10 families in Stanford, CA

My name is Shaelie, and I am a graduate of Cal State Monterey Bay, where I earned my degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences. I have about 12 years of babysitting and nannying experience working with children of all ages, including infants and early elementary–aged kids. Over the past few years, my professional work has also involved supporting children and families through community outreach and family services, which has allowed me to continue working closely with kids and strengthening my skills in communication, patience, and child development. I just moved to the Bay from Monterey, I would love to return to nannying, sitting, and working more directly with families again. I take a gentle, thoughtful approach to childcare and enjoy creating engaging, age appropriate activities that support children’s development while making each day fun and meaningful. I value open communication with parents and strive to create a calm, supportive environment for children to grow and feel confident. I am fully vaccinated, have my own reliable car, a clean driving record, and I’m comfortable driving children as needed. I also love pets and am happy to work in homes with animals.

“Shae was absolutely amazing with our shy 18mo and kept her cool despite our girl being fussy. She’s super easy going and willing to help out with other tasks around the house proactively. Absolutely would love to hire her again. Highly recommend!!”

Booked by 5 families in Stanford, CA

Hi- My name is Jala and I just graduated with my Bachelor’s from San Jose State. I am now offering childcare and household services. I love working with kids because it gives me the opportunity to celebrate the little things everyday, whether it's a simple advancement in their learning journey or just watching them smile and play. I first began working with kids when I was 14 at a summer camp, and from there, I began working with multiple families outside of the camp. I have 3-5 years of experience with infants, toddlers and kids (even twins) but for the past 18 months, I have been focusing my care on infants (those under 1). In my spare time, I like to listen to music, spend time with my family and friends and hangout with my dog!

"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."
