Hi, there! My name is Anita. I am currently a full time high school art teacher in Palo Alto. My works hours are between 9 AM and 4:30 PM, but I’m happy to help out with child care and pet care during the evenings (after 5PM) and weekends. I love working with young folks and have taught elementary school kids and high schoolers for eleven years now. I have also worked at Camp Galileo as a Lead Instructor for over three years. My fondness for teaching started when I was in high school when I used to assist in teaching children how to dance and through my high school's child development program where we taught elementary school students physical education. Growing up, my mother ran a day care at our house and being a babysitter brings me back to when I used to help her out with the kids. Regarding pets, I've had pets my whole life and a dog (whom I raised from a pup until his passing) and cat of my own. I'm very comfortable with animals and find that both kids and animals warm up to me easily. My responsibilities can include arts and crafts, homework, tutoring, helping with meals, getting the kids ready for bed, reading to the kids, and playing. I'm happy to assist with simple cooking, cleaning, school or extra curricular pick up (if my schedule allows) and running errands. I have also been pet and housesitting for a few years, so if there’s a need for that, let me know! I hope to chat with you soon!

Hi there! I'm a 26-year-old who genuinely loves working with children and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for them to grow in. I'm reliable, friendly, and patient, and I truly enjoy helping kids learn, play, and feel supported. I'm CPR certified and have over 6 years of caregiving experience, giving me strong skills in responsibility, communication, and attentive care. I also have excellent references available upon request. I'd love the opportunity to bring my energy and experience to your family! I also have a profile on care.com

Abigail was amazing ! It was my first time getting a sitter but she was right on time, confident, and calm. She messaged me throught the day to keep me up to date on what fun activities they were doing which really put me at ease. I returned back to a tidy home and my little girl sound asleep.

Hello! I'm a professional and am looking to use my extra time helping out families. I've led summer camps for elementary school kids. I'm great with children and have six nieces and nephews who I adore. I used urban sitter when I lived in nyc. I am a fan of non-screen time play. We read all of their favorite books, played pretend, built structures, scooter and skate. I’ve relocated to Santa Clara and am rebooting my services in urban sitter.

I recently graduated San Jose State University this past May 💙 I'm originally from Southern California! I have a variety of experience for ages 6 months to 12 years. I was a nanny for 2 girls for 3 years throughout college, and do many occasional jobs with multiple families. My style of childcare is hands on, such as doing arts and crafts, playing games, going to the playground. As well as helping out with homework, reading books and more. I enjoy getting to know the children personally and prefer no screen time. Throughout high school, I've gained experience working with children mainly through local church organizations. I'm a former overnight camp counselor for kids. I also grew up with two younger siblings which I took care of almost every day. I love working with kids of all ages, especially younger ones. I have a husky at home, so I am very comfortable with pets! I am fully vaccinated with a booster shot as well. I look forward to meeting you!
