Hi! I’m Zhanna 😊 I’ve worked with kids since I was 15, when I started teaching piano lessons. I can teach piano and love bringing music, art, learning, and fun into childcare! I have experience caring for children from 8 months to 15 year old. I enjoy encouraging creativity and active play through dance, soccer, reading, writing, music, and art. I can also help with learning words, park outings, cooking, light cleaning, pet care, and morning routines. I’m outgoing, dependable, and currently available for any time sitting!

Hi! My name is Suneet, and I recently graduated from a Physician Assistant program. While I study for my board exam, I’m excited to get back into babysitting! I have nearly a decade of experience caring for children of all ages, from helping with homework and activities to meals, bedtime, and overnight stays.

My schedule is currently flexible, and I have reliable transportation, so I’m happy to come to you!

“Suneet is an awesome babysitter! Got my normally co-sleeping 2 year old to bed with ease, yay! And my 6 year old had so much fun with her. Thank you Suneet!”

Keyonah 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West Sacramento, CA

Hi! I’m Keyonah! I’m 19 years old, CPR certified, a licensed driver, and currently a student at Sacramento State University studying Early Childhood Education. I’m also a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), which has given me specialized experience supporting children with autism and helping children develop communication, social, and daily living skills. While I’m new to UrbanSitter, I’m not new to childcare—I’ve been caring for children since I was 9 years old! I’ve helped raise my two younger brothers and cared for more than 10 cousins, from newborns to teenagers, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of ages, personalities, and needs. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and engaging. I love creating a safe, positive environment where children can learn, play, and feel supported. Whether it’s helping with routines, homework, creative activities, or simply making sure your child has a fun and structured day, I genuinely enjoy being a positive part of their lives. A little about me: I love building Legos, listening to music, arts and crafts, baking, and cooking. I enjoy incorporating age-appropriate activities into my babysitting to keep kids engaged, learning, and having fun. I understand that every family has different needs, and I’m happy to discuss pricing and scheduling to find something that works for everyone. If you’re looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and passionate about working with children, I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family!

“Keyonah was truly a steady hand and a warm heart during our movie outing. Communicating with her was effortless, and she met every logistical twist with a sincere, easy flexibility that took all the stress out of the day. To my kids, she wasn't just someone watching over them—she was a kind, fun presence who made them feel deeply cared for and 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."
