Sandy $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sandy . I am 20 years old and currently a full-time college student. I currently work with children in an after-school program at Lucille M. Nixon Elementary School, where I care for kids from kindergarten through 5th grade. Through this role, I have developed strong skills in patience, responsibility, creativity, and communication while helping create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children of different ages. In addition to my current job, I also have previous experience working with children through tutoring, which has strengthened my ability to support students academically while making learning engaging and enjoyable. When i’m not at school or work I help my mom with her duties as well, I help her with her housekeeping services and also take care of my infant niece who just turned 1 year old. This has given me valuable hands-on experience caring for an infant and has helped me become even more nurturing, attentive, and dependable. I would describe myself as very crafty, loving, fun, and adventurous. I enjoy creating activities that keep children engaged, encourage creativity, and make learning exciting. My caring personality allows me to build positive connections with children while also maintaining a responsible and trustworthy presence. I am also fluent in Spanish, which allows me to communicate with Spanish-speaking families and children effectively. Being bilingual gives me the ability to tutor or assist with Spanish if needed. Overall, my experience, energy, and passion for working with kids make me someone who truly enjoys helping children learn, grow, and feel supported.

Candelaria $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Candelaria, but everyone calls me Cande (like “candy”). I’m the oldest of three siblings and currently a college student at Cañada College, majoring in radiology. Alongside my studies, I specialize in child care and household services. I’ve always loved being around kids! Since I was 14, I’ve cared for children ages 3 and up. I can help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, tutoring, creative activities, and playtime to keep them engaged and happy. I’m also happy to help with household tasks such as cleaning, running errands, doing laundry, and preparing snacks for the kids. I’m very comfortable with pets. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from big to small breeds, and I love cats too. I’ve never had any issues caring for both cats and dogs. In the mornings, I help one family by preparing breakfast and school lunches, washing and putting away dishes, waking up the child, helping them get dressed, and ensuring they are ready for school. When the mother is traveling, I also take the child to school. For the second family, I care for three children. My responsibilities include picking them up after school, driving them home, and taking two of them to their extracurricular activities. I wait until their activities are finished and then bring them back home. Occasionally, I stay over on weekends to watch the children while the parents are away on trips.

"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."
