For two decades, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and creating enriching environments for children. My passion stems from witnessing their incredible growth and development. I enjoy using my creative and imaginative personality to engage children in outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and caring up to two children, ages newborn to to seven. I maintain open communication with parents, providing updated through verbal discussions or text, always respecting your preferred method. My background includes Early Childhood Education coursework, First Aid training, and CPR Training. I'm also happy to help with cooking and crafts. I hope to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family.
I’am a calm, attentive, and responsible babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I focus on creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and engaged. I’m patient and adaptable, whether that means helping with homework, organizing fun and creative activities, or simply sticking to a child’s routine so they feel secure. I pay close attention to details—like dietary needs, bedtime schedules, and house rules—and I take those seriously. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure to keep parents informed and follow their preferences closely. At the same time, I bring a warm, friendly energy so kids see me as someone they can trust and have fun with, not just someone in charge. Overall, I aim to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children feel confident with.
I’m a caring, patient, and responsible mother of two with hands-on childcare experience, including nannying and volunteering in children’s ministry at my church. I also have experience volunteering with children at a Christian school and USF children’s programs. I’m CPR certified and understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for children. As a parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone who is dependable, trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and assisting with playtime, meals, homework, school routines, and age-appropriate activities. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks related to the children, such as tidying play areas, preparing simple meals, and keeping things organized. I’m calm, organized, punctual, and respectful of each family’s routines and parenting preferences. My goal is to create a positive and comfortable environment where children feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m looking for a part-time nanny or childcare position where I can build a consistent, trusting relationship with a family.
Hi families! My name is Arnelyn and I graduated from UC Davis in 2021 with a major in Psychology and minor in Sociology. I am excited to offer childcare support and household support if needed. I have worked with children for as long as I can remember. I am the eldest of 5 children so I’ve had my fair share in having to babysit and watch my siblings. In addition, I have almost 5 years experience working in Youth Development as a Program Leader and Program Coordinator for an afterschool program. I have had the opportunity to work with school aged children from TK all the way to 5th grade. I currently work in the social services department where I work closely with adults and their children. I can support children with homework, reading, and arts & crafts activities. I am excited to meet your family!
Hi! My name is Bella and I am a first grade teacher in Pacific Heights. I offer babysitting, tutoring, and pet sitting. I love working with and caring for children of all ages! I started babysitting and nannying in 2015 and have lots of experience with infants, toddlers, and young children. My responsibilities while babysitting have included driving children to and from school and activities, preparing easy meals, helping children with homework and reading, tidying up, and planning fun activities. I am CPR and epinephrine-injection certified, and hold a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and special education. I also earned dual-teaching licenses from Regis University in Denver, CO. I have done both full-time and part-time nannying, and I’m currently available anytime after 4 pm Monday-Friday and all day/night on weekends. I am looking for something part-time (1-3 shifts per week). Unfortunately, I do not have a car, and would prefer to not have to drive. Please let me know if you’re interested if you have any questions about me! Thanks so much! 😊

"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."
