Hello! My name is Eliza and I love to babysit! I graduated from the University of San Francisco in May 2019 with a BA in Media Studies. Throughout my college experience I used UrbanSitter many times and have worked with many families - I love this company and all the families I have been able to work for and connect with through UrbanSitter. I am very flexible with my schedule and have worked with kids as young as 7months to as old as 10-11 years old. Message me if you have any questions!

“Eliza is amazing!! Very engaging and very intuitive with children. She’s definitely a true gem when it comes to children. Everything just feels natural with Eliza. Our son really fell in love with her, as did we. She was out first sitter from Urbansitter, and we were more than pleasantly surprised.”

Booked by 9 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi, my name is Faith- I grew up in and love San Francisco. When I'm not babysitting, I'm surf instructing middle and high school age kids, baking, or singing to my cat. I'm CPR and first aid certified for infants, toddlers, and adults. I have experience working with infants and toddlers both on outings and at home, and elementary school aged children at home, sleep away camps, and surf summer camps. I love reading with kids, as well as baking, doing crafts, or leaving the house to walk or go to the park. When working with kids I think it's important to have empathy and and patience, as well as respect for their boundaries and autonomy. I like to resolve conflict by making sure everyone feels heard and allowing children to feel and have space to process big emotions. I take care of my cat, Dumpling, at home, and I have experience feeding, walking, and sitting for dogs. I'm also always open to caring for other pets and broadening my knowledge. In terms of senior care, I 've had the opportunity to intern at the VA hospital in their longer term wards and HDU. I'm happy to provide check-ins, cooking or meal prep services, or companionship. House hold services I can help with are cooking/baking, cleaning, and laundry.

“Faith is super responsible and also super fun! Our son loves spending time with her. Highly recommend.”
