I’ve been on UrbanSitter for the past 6 years, and working with kids is something I truly love. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or just being a positive and caring presence, I enjoy building meaningful connections with the families I work with.

Hello! My name is Maddie and I'm a first grade teacher. I have a Master's in Teaching, two teaching credentials, and a BA in History. I'm looking for occasional jobs in order to supplement my income, especially during school breaks. My hobbies include cooking/baking, reading, and playing video games. I am comfortable with children of all ages, including those with special needs. I worked as a nanny for many years before beginning my teaching career. I also love pets! If you are looking for excellent child care, reach out to me!

Hi, I’m Summer! I’m a preschool teacher and artist who absolutely loves working with kids. I’ve been caring for little ones since I was 15, from tiny babies to big kids, and I’m CPR, First Aid, and TrustLine certified. When I’m not in the classroom, I bring the fun to birthday parties as a face painter and balloon artist — so you can count on me to keep kids entertained with creativity, play, and lots of laughs. I love painting, singing, dancing, and exploring nature, and I enjoy sharing that joy with the children I care for.

Hi, I’m Sal (they/them)! I am a queer 31 year old childcare worker living in the bay. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and since then I’ve been a nanny, daycare/preschool teacher/assistant/sub, camp counselor, afterschool program teacher, and climbing facilitator for birthday parties and field trips at my local gym. I face paint as a side gig, love to camp and be outside in general, rock climb, and hang out with my friends and my cat. Originally I went to school for fine arts and that comes across with arts and crafts when I’m with kiddos. I’ve made curriculum for art clubs at programs in the past and would happily do that if you have an art loving child as well. I prioritize outside time, creek explorations, and helping kids learn how to be safe in their bodies and minds. I just earned my assistant teacher certificate at Merrit Community Collage and am continuing to take more classes for child care there. A long term goal of mine is to become an occupational therapist who works with kids on managing challenging emotions and behaviors. I offer sliding scale rates for my work - please feel free to ask more if this is a need or simply interests you. I have ample experience caring for cats, minimal with dogs but am willing to learn, and less with others. Reptiles give me a bit of a fright, but with time and guidance, I feel confident I will can comfortabilty. I am open to light chores - sweeping, dishes, laundry - , meal prep, and organizational tasks with a potential for a higher rate for that time I am spent doing it on top of watching after your kiddos, depending on what I am being asked to do. I am CPR and first aid certified, a mandated reporter, have a car and am willing to drive -pending a conversation about what that needs to look like -, insured, and have a clean driving record.
