Hello It’s lovely to meet you! My name is Cori Williams, I have nearly 20 years of experience working with children in the Bay Area. My journey working with children started when I was very young. I started a babysitting business in my neighborhood by going door to door as a pre teen to offer my services. I later got myself CPR and AED certified through my work as a swim instructor and lifeguard, where I spent several years teaching infants and toddlers how to swim and building strong safety skills around water safety and swim team training. After seven years working as a full-time lifeguard and swim instructor, I transitioned into full-time nannying and have since worked closely with several families providing dependable, long-term childcare. I have spent years studying early childhood education and child psychology, and I am currently continuing my education to further deepen my understanding of child development. I am especially passionate about supporting children with diverse developmental needs. Throughout my career I have worked with children with ADHD, autism, behavioral challenges, Down syndrome, and other special care needs. I approach each child with patience, compassion, and an individualized approach that supports their emotional development, confidence, and independence. I strongly believe in gentle parenting practices that prioritize communication, emotional awareness, and respect for children as individuals. A Montessori style of parenting. I focus on creating engaging and enriching environments where children feel safe to express themselves, explore their interests, and grow at their own pace. In addition to childcare, I can also assist families with light household support, meal preparation, organization, school pickups, activity planning, and creating fun educational experiences for children. Outside of work, I enjoy studying child. psychology, holistic living, and creative activities such as art. My long-term goal is to continue my education and eventually work in behavioral therapy supporting children with special needs. I have a clean driving record and can provide strong references upon request. Thank you for your time and consideration! I look forward to meeting with you. Best, Cori Williams 1(916) 500 - 9739
Hi! My name is Beatriz and I’m currently living in the Bay Area. I am offering child care, senior care, and pet care services. I love working with children and have experience caring for toddlers and school-aged kids. My responsibilities have included preparing meals, organizing fun and educational activities, helping with homework, bath time, bedtime routines, and driving to school or activities. I am also comfortable providing senior care, including companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping. In addition, I enjoy caring for pets and can help with feeding, walking, and daily care. I am responsible, patient, organized, and trustworthy. I truly enjoy creating a safe, warm, and supportive environment for families.
Hello! My name is Sophie, and I’m a career nanny living in Oakland. I’m a former preschool teacher, and hold a B.A. in Child Development from Mills College. I have been a nanny/babysitter on and off for the past 20 years. Most of my nanny work has consisted of caring for newborns- 3 yr-olds. I really enjoy working with parents as a team, to support them in their post-partum journey. I am looking for part-time work in the areas of infant/childcare, family support, post-partum support, pet care, sibling-support, and general household support.
I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old, primarily caring for my two nieces, who are now 10 and 6 years old. Through this experience, I’ve gained hands-on knowledge in supervising children of different ages, managing routines, and handling various needs from playtime to bedtime. In addition to family babysitting, I worked two summers at a daycare center where I was responsible for diaper changes, assisting with potty training, preparing and feeding meals, and ensuring a safe and engaging environment. During this time, I also learned and followed key safety regulations and best practices in childcare, including hygiene standards, and age-appropriate activities.
“Natalie is wonderful! We interviewed via FaceTime and she really connected with my kiddos. She arrived on time, eager to learn, and constantly helped out the entire time. Even when they were crying she really kept trying to soothe them, calm them down. She played with them and gave them her full attention. ”
Hello! My name is KamrynAyn (Kam) and I have over 10 years of experience in childcare. In high school I started my first summer nanny job, outside of normal babysitting. In college I babysat regularly for friends & family. I was an au pair in London for a lovely family, with two girls 3-5. It was the best year of my life. As I have began a professional career in biotech, I don’t have as much time to work as a nanny, but I miss spending time with kids. I am currently looking to provide occasional or part time care for the right family!

"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."
