Hi! My name is Cinthia, and I have over 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants as young as 4 months old to pre-teens up to 12 years old. I truly love spending time with kids — whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, creating fun activities, or simply making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m CPR certified, patient, responsible, and always bring a calm and positive energy into the home. At the moment, I’m mainly looking for part-time morning positions on Mondays and Fridays, but I’m also available for occasional babysitting during evenings, weekends, date nights, overnight care, or when families need extra help while traveling. I drive, have a valid U.S. driver’s license, and I’m flexible with locations if needed. If you’re looking for someone caring, trustworthy, responsible, and fun to watch your little ones, I’d love to connect!
“I’m so happy to recommend Cinthia as a babysitter. She’s been amazing with my twins and has truly become part of our family. From the start, she showed how reliable and trustworthy she is, and I always feel at ease leaving my kids with her. She takes care of all the daily needs ( feeding them, giving them baths, getting them ready for bed) and she’s even stayed overnight when we needed extra help. Having someone so calm and patient in the house has been a huge plus, especially with two little ones who sometimes both want attention at the same time. What I really appreciate is how she goes beyond just “watching” the kids. She takes them out on playdates, keeps them busy with fun activities, and makes sure they’re safe while still letting them explore and enjoy themselves. She has a really gentle way about her, and the twins just light up when she’s around. Even on hectic days, she never seems flustered and always keeps things running smoothly. Cinthia is dependable, easy to communicate with, and so caring toward my kids. Knowing she’s there gives me peace of mind because I know my twins are happy and well looked after. Any family would be lucky to have her as their babysitter, and I can honestly say she’s been one of the best things to happen to us.”
Strong References! Hi - My name is Camila, I’m 27 years old. I have experience taking care of children of different ages and really enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for them. I’m responsible, caring, and organized, and always do my best to support each family’s routine and make the children feel happy and comfortable. I love dancing, singing, reading, and outdoor activities, and I like to bring these into the kids’ routine through games, crafts, and playtime. I can also help with homework, meals, light cleaning, and errands.
Hi! My name is Irina, I’m an aupair from Argentina but i’ve been living here for a little over a year now🥰 I’ve been working with kids since 2021. I started with my two cousins that were 6 and 3 y/o at that time; then a 3 month old baby until 18 months, and her cousin since she was 4months until 8 months. After that I arrived to Oakland and I’m currently working with two girls! They were 2 years old and 4 months old when i arrived, now they’re 3 y/o and 2 years old 🫶🏻 I feel comfortable with infants and kids, i like to play with them and teach them stuff and also dance and sing! I never did pet care but i have had dogs all my life and i love them, my host family here also have a dog and i usually go for walks with him ❤️
My name is Tami! I’m 38 years old, and a have been working as a nanny over 20 years. I work with so much love. I’m mom of two sweet girls! I have been working as a pet sitter over 3 years. I love animals and spend time with them.
Hi! I’m a warm, reliable, and bilingual caregiver with extensive experience working with children. I hold Montessori Early Childhood Education credits and previously worked as a Montessori preschool teacher for children ages 2–5, where I supported each child’s growth through hands-on learning, patience, and respect for their individuality. I am CPR certified and committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel valued and supported. Families describe me as caring, dependable, and attentive. I enjoy helping children build confidence, independence, and a love of learning while providing parents with peace of mind that their little ones are in capable and compassionate hands.

"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."
