I'm a retired grand mother who's warm, loving, and nurturing. I have five grandchildren, ages ranging from 28 to 5, whom have blessed me with an unlimited amount of experience.
Hi everyone, my name is Sasha and I am a student at college of Marin searching for a part time job. I have been babysitting and was a camp counselor since high school and I have experience with toddlers and older children. I have taken kids to after school programs, cooked dinner, helped with homework, and I have house sat and pet sat both cats and dogs.
“Sasha was great! Friendly and very sweet and engaged with our son.”
I have taken care of children since I was very young. I raised three boys who are now young adults. I have always loved children and enjoy engaging in all kinds of activities with them from imaginative play, reading books, cooking and exploring the great outdoors. I take this job very seriously and realize that you are entrusting me with your most precious treasure. I put care into the children as if they were my own but also defer to the parents as to their parenting practices, so that we are always on the same page. I am waiting for a family who will find value and appreciate what I have to offer as an experienced mother and someone who truly loves and values quality childcare. I have expertise with newborns, babies and toddlers. I have been a first-time caregiver for many families. This is not just a job for me. It’s something that I love. I also speak Spanish which I could teach your child if you so desire. I have been screened and background tested through a Nanny agency in Marin called Rent A Parent which I have been doing temporary work for.
Hi! My name is Andrea & I’m presently looking to work with new families. I provided care for 2 children consistently for 6 years however, those children are now in full time school so I’m caring for them just occasionally for parents’ date night. I also enjoy providing senior care, as I took care of 3 grandparents in their golden years. I am full of patience & kindness for the little ones & am creative & imaginative. I have energy & endurance for newborns up to teenagers. I have a good understanding of social & emotional needs of both children & seniors. I really love working in environments that require organizational skills as i’m detail oriented. I am highly adaptable to most situations & cool under pressure which i think is a must when caring for little ones & elders. I have no problem with homework guidance. I like meal planning & prepping - love feeding people a healthy but delicious meal. If you’re looking for a highly experienced nanny please reach out. I have 3 adult children so newborns are one of my favorite ages to be with. I love children & connect & bond with them easily. Little ones & our seniors need expert care & i enjoy providing that to families. Thank you.
“Andrea is wonderful - she is highly recommended from long term families she has helped. We are lucky to have 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."
