Booked by 2 families in West Sacramento, CA

Hi! My name is Sophia. I am a Criminal Intelligence Analyst and UC Davis graduate (BA in International Relations, double minor in Human Rights & Communications) with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for, mentoring, and teaching youth of all ages. My background in intelligence analysis means safety, attention to detail, clear communication, and quick, practical thinking are second nature to me. Parents can rest easy knowing their kids are in attentive, responsible, and capable hands. Experience & Background I have worked in childcare since age 12, caring for children ages 1 to 17: -10+ Years Babysitting & Nannying: Experienced with all routines, including healthy meal prep, bath time, transport, engaging play, and bedtime. -STEM Program Coordinator & After-School Instructor: Managed energetic classrooms, keeping kids engaged through hands-on learning, teamwork, and patience. -Camp Counselor (6 Years): Led active daily programs for kids ages 4–12. -Youth Mentor & Tutor (3 Years): Provided academic support and mentorship to refugee youth ages 8–17 in Sacramento. -Pet-Friendly: Raised dogs my whole life and spent years as a shelter canine handler, so I love helping with furry family members! Personality & Style I bring a vibrant, bubbly energy alongside a calm, patient temperament. Whether we’re tackling homework, working on a creative project, or enjoying active outdoor fun, I love supporting children’s personal and academic growth. My approach pairs warm encouragement with clear, respectful boundaries so kids feel safe, happy, and well-behaved. Key Skills -Academic Support: K–12 homework help, reading, and STEM tutoring -Languages: Native English speaker with full professional proficiency in Spanish -Household Help: Nutritious meal prep, light cleanup, and pet care I view caring for kids as a privilege and bring reliability, warmth, and peace of mind to every home. I look forward to meeting your family!

Veenera $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Veenera, but I often go by just Vee :) I am 21 years old and currently in school to become a labor and delivery nurse! With over 5 years of experience in daycare and working with children, I understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, engaging, and fun environment for children of all ages. Growing up in a huge Slavic family, I always had a ton of younger cousins around me. They are the ones that started my love and passion for kids! Some of my experience comes from being a part of the daycare team at my church. In addition to that, I've also been a nanny for the same family for close to two years now. I am willing to help out with other tasks such as prepping/cooking food, light housekeeping, and anything else that will make your life as the parent easier! If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and fun babysitter, I'd love to chat further about how I can support your family. Thank you for considering me as your trusted babysitter! :)

Booked by 2 families in West Sacramento, CA

Hi! I’m Katie. Thank you for checking out my profile. I would love an opportunity to help you with your littles! A little relevant experience: I have taken several parenting classes and Early Childhood development classes. I hold two Associates Degrees in Social Science and Psychology, and I am studying part time towards my goal of eventually earning a BA in Social work and becoming an LCSW. I have personal experience caring for children through my own daughter, as well as some professional experience fostering children prior to COVID-19. I am infant, child and adult CPR/AED/First aid certified, and I hold a Servsafe Food Handlers card so you can entrust me with your children and with preparing and serving them healthy foods in a safe manner if meal preparation is required. I love all animals, and I am also a regular dog sitter and house sitter on Rover, so taking care of your pets and kids simultaneously would be no issue! I am very big on outdoor play, walks around the neighborhood whether in a stroller or wagon or inching along on little legs is fine by me! Helps to slow me down as an adult in tbjs busy life anyway! I am open to watching them at home only or if we establish a relationship and continuing care, then I am all for play outings to a nearby recreational pool or beach spot along the lake for a few hours to let kids play in nature and explore. Discovery Park, Effie Yaw Nature Center, Land Park, and Lake Natoma are great options I like for small kids, but if families have their preferred play spot, or we play in backyard only, that is fine by me! So I am licensed also, no worries. I have been driving for over 15 years, have a clean driving record (not even a ticket), own a safe and reliable Mercedes Benz SUV that is fully insured with AAA so any traveling with the kids will be safe.

"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."
