Booked by 15 families in Vista, CA

Hi, my name is Jacqueline! I am from San Jose. I went to University of San Francisco to major in Politics and minor in Legal Studies. I also recently finished my Master’s of Public Administration and Public Policy from University of Southern California. I am hoping to pursue law school next so I am currently saving up for that! I have always found a great deal of happiness when taking care of children, so I look forward to spending my free time babysitting. I enjoy interacting with the children (especially seeing how much energy they have) and watching them develop tremendously over time. I am CPR/AED certified[removed]67971) by the American Heart Association. Here is a little background about my experience: In my family, I am one of the oldest cousins so my aunts/uncles always look to me to babysit their kids. Not only have I had experience in babysitting, but also formally engaged in tutoring elementary students for over 5 years and guiding youth - elementary students in youth camps/ science camps. I look forward to simply helping your family out and meeting your kids! Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Jacqueline was fabulous with our son. He had a great time and she took care of him very well.

Amanda Vista
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amanda , and I have over 5 years of hands-on experience providing loving, dependable care for children of all ages. Caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I’ve been the go-to babysitter for my younger cousins and grew up helping care for my little sister and brother, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe, nurturing environment. I am also going to school for nursing, I am finishing up my pre-reqs. Once i graduate i want to work in pediatrics or NICU. I haven't decided just yet! My responsibilities included cooking nutritious meals, keeping the home clean and organized, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I regularly took the children to the park, swimming, and to school, while making sure their days were structured, safe, and full of learning and play. I also helped with naps, feeding, and maintaining consistent routines. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and care into your home and help create a positive, loving environment for your children.

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

Some background information about me is I have worked with children for over five years at a youth volleyball club and growing up with younger cousins and a little sister, I've developed a strong sense of responsibility and patience, essential traits for being a great babysitter. My experience with kids has helped me learn how to engage them in fun, safe activities while ensuring their well-being. As a junior at Cal State San Marcos studying graphic design, I also bring creativity and a calm, problem-solving mindset to the table, which allows me to adapt to any situation. Outside of my academic and babysitting roles, I enjoy playing volleyball, going to the beach, and traveling—hobbies that keep me active and connected with others. These experiences have not only shaped my ability to care for children but also nurtured a sense of adventure and creativity that I can share with them.

Interview went great! I’m looking forward to scheduling a babysitting evening.

Oceania Vista
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Oceania! I’m a mom of one and have been caring for kids most of my life. I started out helping with my nieces, spent a year interning at a daycare when I was 16, and I also help care for my stepdaughter. Between my own child and the kids I’ve cared for, I’ve learned how important it is to have patience, structure, and a loving environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your little ones with someone else, and I don’t take that lightly. Families describe me as dependable, calm, and nurturing. Whether it’s keeping kids busy with fun activities, sticking to routines, or just being a safe and caring presence, I’m here to make things easier for both you and your child.

"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."
