Hello Moms and Dads! I love working with infants, toddlers and kids. I graduated from U.C. Berkeley majoring in English with a Spanish minor. I am born and raised in the bay area. I have been nannying and babysitting 12+ years including with many infants, twins and groups of children. I love kids! I also love activities including running, swimming, singing, art,creating childrens stories and also keeping up with education technology. In addition to my bachelors degree, I have a credential and Masters in General Education and credential in Mild-Moderate Special Education and another in Visual Impairments from San Francisco state. I love being a teacher and a child care provider. I am also a fluent Spanish speaker and I love teaching kids. I have also been a swim instructor for 15+ years. I am CPR certified. I have babysat, tutored and taught swim lessons to all ages. I love making a difference in the lives of children! I have a 3-4hr minimum for in-person bookings. Happy to start with an interview call if that helps. I have a 48hr notice cancellation policy. Thank you!
Fully vaccinated and boosted. I have many years of childcare experience, both teaching and nanny/babysitting. I especially enjoy working with infants and toddlers and supporting developmental growth in those early years. I love being outdoors and it certainly comes through when I am with kids! I especially like playing outside, going for walks, and observing nature. I also love a good book and am happy to read out loud to children. In my free time I enjoy yoga, rock climbing, hiking, and dancing. I am very creative and I like making crafts and drawing stories with children. My previous work experience includes teaching kids gardening, cooking, crafts, and wilderness skills.
“Alison was kind, pleasant, timely and attentive. We would be happy to have her watch our son again.”
Certified birth and postpartum doula, as well as nanny guru! I have had the opportunity to live and travel throughout South America as a former Sr. Brand Manager for Avon Cosmetics. Due to this career I was able to pick up two more languages. I speak fluently: English, Portuguese, and I am a native Spanish speaker. I hold a Bachelors degree in Marketing more recently got my MBA and more than 20 years of experience working within an executive setting. I am now married with a 12 years old son who is simply my pride and joy. Having a child has been the most fantastic experience in my life and I enjoy every second of the responsibility. When children are babies or toddlers they have the ability to absorb so much knowledge. We should take advantage of this opportunity and teach them all that we can. It is such a joy to see the expression on a child’s face when they experience something new for the first time. As a mom, I know how precious our kids are, so I make sure to always be prepared for any situation. I'm charismatic, playful, loving, honest, responsible, organized, clean and thoughtful. I’ve learned how to diversify my cooking for almost any child’s taste buds. Certified in CPR and First Aid as well as bass experience with special need children. I have different Certifications: Birth and Postpartum Doula, Breastfeeding and Child early development counselor and Perinatal Nutrition Educator. My style of babysitting is to work on teaching daily routines, staying creative, and making every visit memorable and fun. And nowadays I work in a Foundation that helps Seniors which has being a great experience too. I make sure meals are balanced - veggies-fruits-cereal and protein, but at the end they are kids and we need to find fun ways to make there meals appealing, fun and different. I have worked with many different families outside of urbansitter, caring for children (boys and girls) from premise/newborns to 15 years old kids. I have references immediately available upon request. I look forward to meeting your family, and becoming a valuable resource when you need a responsible and experienced professional child sitter.
“Carmina is amazing and our daughter Ella warmed to her straight away! We can’t wait for her to visit again soon :)”
HI! My name is Mariane, 34 years old. I have my own car and don’t mind driving to the job, max 30 miles distance. I have experience with all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I'm fun and communicative, the kind of babysitter that really sits and play with the kids. I like to find fun activities, like arts&crafts, coloring, or some learning activity. I can help with homework, pick up from school, drive to activities, watch them for a date night or just give you a little break when need it (we all need it right?). I also know how and love to swim! If you have any questions, please feel free to text me, I'm looking forward to work with you!
Hi, I'm Sarah! I am offering child care and household services. I have 7 years of experience providing private childcare. I've worked with infants, toddlers, and children up to 11 years old. (One of them told me I get along well with kids because I'm a child at heart, LOL) I have a nursing education background, and currently working at UCSF, Cancer Research Department. I am also more than happy to watch dogs, cats, or any animal you might have. The more the merrier! :)
“Sarah was a breath of fresh of fresh air! Sarah came to look after my 3 year old daughter all day when she had an ear infection and was home from school. I could immediately tell she was such a warm person, and she engaged with my daughter right away. She played with her, fed her lunch, put her down for nap and played more. When my daughter was napping, Sarah organized all of the toys in the playroom into drawers, assembled a new easel for my kids, and helped my daughter do a painting project when she woke up. Sarah is such a sweet person, was prompt, communicative, and a joy to have here. We would love to hire her again! ”

"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."
