Hi there! My name’s Paola- I am an assistant teacher to toddlers. I have also worked as a baby sitter with jovie and tlc family care.I’ve worked with kids from 6 weeks to 6 years old.

Hello, my name is Pia and am currently in school for ultrasound tech. I am offering child care and household services. I have 4 years of experience as a daycare assistant watching over infants, toddlers, and kids (pre-k to 6th grade). I have also been babysitting different families ever since I was 16 years old. I enjoy my responsibilities of taking the kids to the park or the library, driving to/from school, tutoring, making art and crafts, or sing and dance to some music. I also offer light housekeeping services such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, and occasional grocery shopping. If you would like to add more housekeeping services, just let me know-- I will be flexible!

My name is Priscila, I am 35 years old, and have BA in International Relations. I've been taking care of kids for more than ten years in total. During this period I've been working with multiples families in Bay Area, and I have experiences from new borns to teenagers. My previous jobs were: - A family in San Anselmo with 3 kids (new born, 18mo and 5yo), we worked together for 3 years. - A family from Terra Linda who has two boys (2 yo and 15mo), we also did a nanny share with the youngest one, and with two other boys who were 18mo, and 21mo. - A family in San Anselmo who has a boy (6mo). - A nanny share with two families in San Rafael, the kids were 3mo and 6mo when I started, and now they are 5 years old :) I currently work as a realtor, but I do love kids, and I miss being around them, I’m not a mom yet, and I would like to help you babysitting your children during the weekend so you can enjoy some free times! I like the expression of “placing your eggs in different basket”, and in the future I have this goal of opening a day care, so it will be nice to do some networking now to achieve my plans in the future! I have the Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED from American Red Cross, and I'm fully vaccinated from flu and Covid 19. I used to be a baby sitter in The Palm Plaza Hotel Resort, taking care of kids from 3 months to 2 years. Also I used to be a teacher at Baptist Church, taking care of kids from 5 months to 10 years. My grandmother and my aunt are pedagogies, my mother is also a nanny, and I learned many things with them about children's development. I also love reading books about kid’s education, and I highly recommend the documentary from Netflix called “Babies”, it’s really good! With that being said, I’m constantly educating myself to treat your children as they were mine, to keep them safe, and to become the best mother I will be in the future! I’m looking forward in assisting your family soon!

Aloha! 😊 I’m Noemi. Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my profile! I’m 37 years young and have over 12 years of experience caring for children of all ages. Working with children has truly been one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel incredibly blessed to have built lasting relationships with so many wonderful families over the years. My experience includes caring for infants, teaching toddlers their ABCs and 123s, and helping school-aged children with homework and after-school activities. Every child is unique, and I love creating a nurturing environment where they feel safe, loved, encouraged, and free to be themselves. As a nanny, my goal is to become a trusted extension of your family. I believe children learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful interactions. I enjoy planning fun and engaging activities like trips to the park, library visits, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, story time, playdates, and other age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence. Parents describe me as caring, dependable, patient, organized, and trustworthy. I understand how important it is to leave your children with someone you can truly trust, and I take that responsibility to heart. Your child’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I am fortunate to have wonderful references from families I’ve had the privilege of working with, and they would be happy to share their experiences with you. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, I’d love the opportunity to connect, answer any questions, and learn more about your family’s needs. Thank you again for considering me. I look forward to meeting you and hopefully becoming a positive part of your family’s journey! 💛

“A big Noemi fan! ”

"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."
