*occasional work only. No part time or full time requests please Hello! My name is Ashlyn, and I’m 30 years old with over 15 years of caregiving experience for children of all ages. I’ve had the pleasure of babysitting for hundreds of Bay Area families (truly!). Background: Current Pre-Nursing Student BA Psychology Experience working w/ infants and K-8 as a classroom aide, aftercare coordinator, and CYO Volleyball coach. Why Choose Me to Work with Your Family? (*Please use my reviews as references*): • I actively engage with children—I’m fun, energetic, and involved. I don’t just supervise; I play too! I also make an extra effort to tidy up. • I have extensive experience managing and engaging large groups of kids. • I’m comfortable caring for infants and their toddler-aged siblings simultaneously. • I’m creative, spontaneous, and easy-going with a “go with the flow” attitude while maintaining necessary boundaries. I have done well caring for most neurodivergent children as I am sensitive and patient. • I’m a top-notch fort builder I look forward to hearing from you and becoming an occasional sitter for your family. _____ *4 hour minimum, please! Looking for occasional jobs, ideally 6+ hour shifts.
Hello, my name is Luz! :) I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a major in Psychology, a minor in Early Development and Learning Science, and a Certificate in Business. My experience working with children began in 2014 when I started as a Teacher’s Aide at the YMCA. In 2016, I joined UrbanSitter and had the joy of babysitting for more than 50 wonderful families throughout the Bay Area while also holding various part-time childcare positions through the end of 2020. At the beginning of 2021, I earned my Behavior Technician certification and worked at Cortica as a Behavior Interventionist with children with Autism and other neurodevelopmental differences — an incredibly rewarding experience. During my time at UC Berkeley, I also worked as a Research Assistant in a developmental psychology lab, which deepened my love for understanding how children learn and grow. I’m licensed, and have a safe, reliable car. I speak English and Spanish fluently and am known for being patient, responsible, and genuinely caring. I love engaging with kids - whether that means creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with learning. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to psychology podcasts, personal finance audiobooks, and spending time outdoors hiking nearby trails. While away from UrbanSitter for a bit now, I’ve kept babysitting my younger sister (8 y.o now) and created a wedding planning business. I truly loved connecting with families and caring for their little ones - it was always such a rewarding part of my life and I can’t wait to feel that again! POLICIES Payment: Because I plan my time and budget around booked hours, I ask to be paid for the full booking, even if plans change or you return earlier than expected. Late Returns: I’m usually flexible with end times, but please text or call if you’ll be running late. I sometimes book jobs back-to-back, and communication helps me stay on schedule. Looking forward to meeting you & your little one(s)!

"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."
