Hello - My name is Caragh. I'm an experienced Nanny/Family Assistant offering warm, caring, and supportive child care along with helping families with daily household management. Mom of 2 boys :) I love children and helping families with their childcare & home needs to keep all running smoothly. I am a long-time resident of San Mateo with extensive knowledge on peninsula and surrounding areas. I have experience with infants, toddlers, preschool, and school-age kids (including twins!) for over 10 years. I'm a family team player. I like to work side by side mom/dad/parents to help support the family with kiddos schedules, daily routines, and adhering to any house rules, etc. I'm very flexible, trustworthy, punctual, discrete, caring, and highly skilled at multitasking.

I'm tech savvy and experienced with various software, including Google Suite. I also have experience with NDAs. My responsibilities have included getting kiddos ready for school, morning breakfast including preparing hot dishes like french toast, pancakes, scrambled eggs, etc., meal, lunch & snack prep, driving to/from school/activities/sports, appointments/dance/music, etc. Love to craft, imagination play, puzzles, games, tutoring, light laundry(empty dishwasher, kiddo laundry, making kiddo beds, tidying kitchen/play areas), feeding along with evening routines (including baths, stories & putting to bed).

Hi- My name is Bella. I work Monday- Thursday and am looking for a babysitting job for Fridays. I am the oldest of 3 and started babysitting when I was 15. I have 10+ years of experience with ages 4 months and up. I have 7 yrs of experience working with children with Downs Syndrome as well. I am comfortable with kids going through periods of being fussy or having a hard time being away from their parents. I like to keep them engaged with whatever fits their developmental stage whether that be reading books, singing, going to the park, or playing games around the house. If the kids have chores or responsibilities around the house I will make sure they get done if needed. I am CRP and first aid certified and have had experience with medical emergencies. Those moments showed me the importance of being trained in life saving procedures. I am proud to say in those moments my training helped me stay calm and take appropriate action. I have a Honda Civic and don’t mind taking kids places or running errands. I am open to light house keeping like dishes, laundry, and cooking. I grew up in Petaluma and am very close with my family. In my free time I enjoy exploring the city, hiking, and hanging out with friends.

Hi, my name is May. I have over 7 years of experience as a live-in nanny and au pair, caring for children from infants to school age. I truly enjoy supporting kids through every stage of growth — from diapering and potty training to homework help and after-school activities. Over the years, I’ve cared for newborns, toddlers, and school-aged kids (up to 4 at once!) and have helped families with everything from school drop-offs to bedtime routines. I love keeping children engaged with creative play, reading, outdoor activities, and structured routines that make them feel secure. In addition to childcare, I also provide household support including meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, organization, and managing busy family schedules. Safety is always a priority — I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and I have a clean driving record. Families describe me as reliable, patient, and caring. I take pride in creating a safe, loving environment where children thrive and parents feel supported.

"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."
