⸻ Hi! My name is Tiara, and I’m offering child care, senior care, and household support services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children—including twins. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, arts and crafts, tutoring, meal preparation, and even helping with dance lessons. In addition to childcare, I work as a household assistant and am happy to help with cooking, cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I also have hands-on experience caring for my own grandparents and am comfortable assisting with senior care needs such as meal preparation, transportation to appointments, and companionship.
“Tiara was great! My toddler felt comfortable going right to her. She was professional and made sure my toddler had a busy, fun day when daycare was cancelled. ”

At age 11 i started babysitting for the neighborhood- to the point i was in very high demand and had to learn the art of negotiation. i stayed with the same families for many years literally up until i met and married my husband. we had 3 boys and cherished that experience as they grew into men. in 2020, i began my Nanny journey, and have loved every minute of it. children are our greatest commodity and i believe i have a special gift to connect with children and help them to thrive and develop into the very best they can be! in addition, i have learned how to create healthy boundaries with a family unit by anticipating and being conscientious of family dynamics. ultimately i pride myself in helping a family to thrive as individuals and as a whole. i have learned that each family has their own unique parenting style and its own challenges each and everyday - it’s been my personal experience that i can lend myself into those challenges to lighten the load by my attentive nature, compassion, energy and kindness. i take great pride in my role as a Nanny and cherish the moment’s shared with a loving and growing family.

I’m 26, from Northern California, and recently left my law office job to focus more on school. I love reading and have always been drawn to good stories, honest conversations, and anything that makes me laugh. I’d describe myself as thoughtful, hardworking, and a little sarcastic in the best way. Right now, I’m focused on classes, personal growth, and figuring out what comes next.

"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
