Hi, my name is Faith- I grew up in and love San Francisco. When I'm not babysitting, I'm surf instructing middle and high school age kids, baking, or singing to my cat. I'm CPR and first aid certified for infants, toddlers, and adults. I have experience working with infants and toddlers both on outings and at home, and elementary school aged children at home, sleep away camps, and surf summer camps. I love reading with kids, as well as baking, doing crafts, or leaving the house to walk or go to the park. When working with kids I think it's important to have empathy and and patience, as well as respect for their boundaries and autonomy. I like to resolve conflict by making sure everyone feels heard and allowing children to feel and have space to process big emotions. I take care of my cat, Dumpling, at home, and I have experience feeding, walking, and sitting for dogs. I'm also always open to caring for other pets and broadening my knowledge. In terms of senior care, I 've had the opportunity to intern at the VA hospital in their longer term wards and HDU. I'm happy to provide check-ins, cooking or meal prep services, or companionship. House hold services I can help with are cooking/baking, cleaning, and laundry.
“Faith is super responsible and also super fun! Our son loves spending time with her. Highly recommend.”
I have a masters degree in education and have worked with kids of all ages both in and out of the classroom for nearly 20 years. I have been a babysitter, teacher, nanny and camp counselor and would love the opportunity to support you and yours with laughter, learning and fun! Personally, I love the outdoors, reading, writing, dancing, traveling and I love spending time with the people I love. Thanks so much for your time and consideration in advance! As a special education teacher, I am also offering online tutoring at the elementary level as well in the areas of reading intervention and math. Please send me a message if you are interested. Please note: I have a 4 hour minimum for babysitting and do charge for hours booked. Cash is always preferred whenever possible. Thank you greatly!
“Fantastic. Will absolutely hire again!”
I am patient and I love to spend my time with kids, I'm very sweet and funny, so I get along really well with them. I'm also creative when I teach. And last but not least, I am very independent, so I will adapt easily.
“From the very first day, Diana was punctual and reliable, always arriving on time. My kids adore them and often talk about the fun games they play together. Diana has a great way of keeping my children engaged with creative activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor play. Diana is one of our best sitters, and we highly recommend her!! ”

"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."
