KamrynAyn $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Albany, CA
Hello! My name is KamrynAyn (Kam) and I have over 10 years of experience in childcare. In high school I started my first summer nanny job, outside of normal babysitting. In college I babysat regularly for friends & family. I was an au pair in London for a lovely family, with two girls 3-5. It was the best year of my life. As I have began a professional career in biotech, I don’t have as much time to work as a nanny, but I miss spending time with kids. I am currently looking to provide occasional or part time care for the right family!

Booked by 3 families in Albany, CA
Hi there! My name is Adriana, and I have two years of hands-on experience working with children aged 3 to 15. I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and a deep passion for nurturing young minds. My commitment to providing a safe and enriching environment extends beyond childcare—I also care for pets and am proficient in light housework, ensuring that families return to a tidy and organized home. Currently pursuing a degree in Sociology, I’m fascinated by the dynamics of human interaction, which enhances my understanding of child development and behavior. With CPR/First Aid certification and a spotless driving record, safety is always my top priority.
“This was my first time booking through Urban Sitter, let alone having someone that was not family watch my child. Adriana arrived on time and got acclimated quickly with my daughter. They played games and by the time I returned home it was lights out. Overall a great experience and I foresee myself rebooking with Adriana again. ”

Tsedal $30 per hour for 1 child
I am a naturally sympathetic, kind, and caring person with a genuine love for children. I have helped care for my nephews since they were babies, which gave me hands on experience in nurturing and supporting and engaging with young children. And I help in Sunday school at church. I find real joy in creating a safe, positive, and encouraging environment where kids feel supported and loved.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
