Hi! I'm Kendall, a nursing student at San Francisco State. I offer childcare, senior care, pet care, and household support in San Francisco. I've been caring for kids for over 10 years, from newborns and infants to teenagers. My experience comes from babysitting and nannying, teaching outdoor education, substitute teaching, summer camps, rock climbing instruction, and youth leadership programs. These days, I'm also training in the hospital as part of nursing school and currently work with newborns, which has deepened my love for supporting families during those early stages of life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. You'll usually find me outside exploring parks, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, building forts, baking, climbing trees, making up games, or helping with homework. I love following children's curiosity and creating opportunities for them to learn, grow, and have fun. I'm happy to help with schoolwork, transportation, meal prep, bedtime routines, and whatever helps make family life run a little smoother. Before nursing school, I worked as a violence prevention educator, substitute teacher, outdoor guide, and volunteer training coordinator. I also have extensive training in communication, crisis response, and creating safe, supportive environments. I am certified in CPR/BLS (Basic Life Support) and Wilderness First Response. I also enjoy working with older adults. I've helped care for family members with severe illness/neurocognitive deficits and have spent much of my professional life supporting people through challenging situations. I love hearing stories, building connections, helping with errands, preparing meals, providing transportation, or simply being good company. I'm comfortable caring for cats and dogs and am happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, medications, and overnight pet care. My start in the Bay Area was exploring via Trusted Housesitters. Around the house, I can help with cooking, dishes, laundry, grocery shopping, organizing, errands, plant care, and general household tasks. I'm tidy, dependable, and the kind of person who notices what needs to get done and jumps in to help. People often describe me as warm, responsible, adventurous, patient, and easy to talk to. Whether your family needs a reliable babysitter, an extra set of hands around the house, support for an older loved one, or someone to care for your pets, I'd love to connect and see if we're a good fit.
I have been a preschool teacher for toddlers for almost 9 years. I have a certificate in infant and toddlers care. I love to take the kids to the closest playground so they can explore in nature and interact with other children. We make lots of art activities and sensory experiences. I help in the process of potty training.
Hi families! My name is Shaaravi but you can call me Sasha :) . I currently work in real estate, but I’ve also spent years caring for children, from babysitting at ages 16-18 to working as an au pair (live in nanny) in France and Italy. I’m looking to make some extra income while doing something I truly enjoy: helping kids feel safe, supported, and happy. As an au pair, I cared for children of different ages, managing school routines, playtime, meals, and household responsibilities. That experience taught me patience, flexibility, and how to balance fun with structure. I’d love the chance to support your family and create a safe, positive environment for your children. Looking forward to connecting!
Hi! I’m Rosi, I went to beauty school and currently I’m working as a part time esthetician. I offer child care, senior care, pet care and household services! I love to keep an organized space so I’m happy to do any household chores including cooking, cleaning, tidying up and running any errands :) My experiences with children include having watched over my niece and nephews (ages 8mo - 1yr) and helping out at summer camps (ages 5 - 12yrs). I have a dog of my own and have previously worked on another pet caregiver app! (I also love cats!)
I currently work at a children’s theater as a teacher, camp lead and performer where I take pride in my ability to keep kiddos safe, happy and entertained. I also have experience playing with my three nieces (2, 6 and 8) as well as a short stint as a nanny for a 12 month old boy back in 2021. I have a degree in Cinema from SFSU and am very passionate about movies, theatre and storytelling.

"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."
