Ciena Santa Barbara
$30 per hour for 1 child

I graduated from Westmont college in 2025 with a degree in psychology and theater. I have years of experience working with kids, including teaching middle school, one on one ABA therapy for children on the autism spectrum, and extensive childcare experience. My specialty is creativity and play. My background in psychology helps me understand emotional regulation, sensory needs, and individualized support strategies. I learned in my time in ABA that structure and rigidity has a place, but I prefer to have more of a genuine relationship with my kiddos. I like to play and get on their level, but know how to maintain respect as well. I’m trained in positive reinforcement and have experience navigating meltdowns and transitions calmly and supportively. I have developed and worked on theater festivals and productions with kids and love using theater, art, and storytelling as tools for connection, emotional expression, and learning through play. You can find me usually spending a lot of time training and entertaining my 2 year old Aussie-doodle with daily walks, hikes, and trips to the dog park!

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Summerland, CA

I love working with children of all age groups, I do adore working with infants. My mother had a private pre-school so it was a formative part of my upbringing that has stayed with me. I enjoy watching and being part of their first time experiences while observing infants, toddlers, elementary, middle school, etc. stages develop. I have over 10 years of experience and I believe my intuition as well as my sensitivity fosters positive, solid growth and well being. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Rassa was so wonderful with our kids. She had such a sweet and calming energy. She was very communicative leading up to the day. We will definitely hire her again.

Booked by 116 families in Summerland, CA

Hello, My name is Silvia. I’m 30 years old and recently moved back to Santa Barbara after completing my graduate program in Elementary Education at San Francisco State University. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Child Development with a minor in Psychology, and I’m truly passionate about working with children. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children of various ages. I’ve worked in daycare settings during the summers and have extensive experience babysitting, which has helped me develop patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. In my free time, I enjoy drawing, painting, playing soccer, reading, and playing the guitar—activities I love to share with kids to keep them engaged, creative, and active. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children!

Silvia was wonderful with our 2 year old daughter! She was punctual, professional, and our daughter really enjoyed playing with her. She was even able to get our nap-refusing toddler successfully down for a nap. Will definitely be hiring her again!

"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."
