Yanina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Yanina, I am 48 years old. I have been working as a nanny for 20 years now. I have experience with twins and kids from all ages. so far I have gotten the chance to work with many families in San Jose, Santa Clara, Los gatos, Mountain View, Palo Alto, and San Mateo. I speak two languages (Spanish and English). I also love and enjoy cooking and preparing meals for the kids that I watch. I like to make sure that what I cook for the kids is both filling and healthy. For me one of the most important things in watching a child is having patients and giving them as much love as they need. what I look forward to in a job is making sure that I can make both the family and the child or children happy.

Nichole $18 per hour for 1 child

I’m a WFH insurance agent. I’m a 38 y.o. Christian, single female with no kids. However I have been babysitting on and off since I was 12. I have many friends with children, and it is my pleasure to be able to help them from time to time, as some are single mothers, since I’m in the position to help. I’m typically known as the adopted Auntie, as I’m very protective and it’s important the children feel safe in their own home. Especially under my care, as I take safety very seriously. While I am fun and like to laugh, I don’t allow that to take away from what’s important, such as their homework or any obligations they may have. I have reliable transportation, I cook, I clean, I change diapers, and I enjoy quality time with the children instead of only placing them in front of a television. Their responsibilities I will honor, as well as the parents requests. Feel free to reach out for references or if you would like to meet on zoom or for coffee. I do have a business meeting one Saturday a month. I typically get a 1-2 week notice as the day fluctuates. On these days, I am available from the am to around 1pm as I have to travel. Also I currently don’t have a vehicle as my transmission went but can get to and from your house if local.

I have 7 years of experience caring for children aged between 8 months to 13 years old, plus housesitting and dog-walking. I'm calm under pressure, quick to adapt, and love keeping little ones (and pets!) happy 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."
