Hi! My name is Maria. I’ve been working with children since I was 17. I started as an assistant counselor at kids’ summer camps, then worked as an entertainer/animator at children’s parties. In 2020, I worked and volunteered at a Montessori preschool in Sacramento. I also provided consistent babysitting for a girl for six years. I’m patient, caring, and great at building trust with kids. I love keeping children engaged with games, creative activities, developmental play, music, dancing, and outdoor movement—always prioritizing safety and routines. I’m also very comfortable with pets: I love animals and have two cats of my own.

In addition, I was trained in the Montessori method of preschool teaching. I have a BA in Organizational Leadership and an AA in Human Growth and Development. I have been a nanny for three different doctors. One with three children, one with a 12 month old and another with an 18 month old. I have been an In home caregiver for 4 different agencies. I was an Activities Director for a 53-bed Alzheimers Facility. I was a Vocational Counselor for Learning Disabled Young Adults. I raised four children of my own, the oldest severely challenged.

Based in Sac 📍 Travel often to the Bay Area Hello there my name is Alia! I am a 30 year old communications professional. My hobbies include reading, writing, practicing my Spanish, bike riding, soccer, arts and crafts, and finding new movies to watch! I have over 4 years experience of sitting ranging from 6 months- to age 17. I have no problem coming to you. My favorite part about babysitting is getting to spend time and have fun with the amazing children. I believe every child is unique and different and it’s so fun getting to know all of them and thinking of new activities. I develop close friendships with parents and children so that we become in a way one big family. I strongly prefer cash, Zelle or Venmo. I do charge for the entire time booked, even if you arrive home earlier than the agreed end time. LATE POLICY: If you think you are going to be late or would like to stay out later, please send me a text or phone call an hour beforehand. If not notified, an overtime charge will be applied to double the time you are late. CANCELLATION POLICY: No fee for cancellation up to 48 hours notice. Under 48 hours notice will be charged a 50% cancellation fee. Under 24 hour notice will be charged full fee.
“She was great! She was great with 2 kids, and she was so helpful around the house. We’re looking forward to more opportunities to have her support us.”
* I am currently only taking occasional babysitting opportunities. Hi! My name is Maria and I seriously love hanging out with children. They are so full of amazing energy and such a joy to be around. I am passionate about children because you can learn a lot from them, like how to enjoy the simple things in life. I have been working with children for over 8 years as a babysitter for friends and family. I am a former Registered Behavior Technician. I learned and gained a lot of experience working with children diagnosed with autism. I have worked with all ages from newborn to 16 years old. I love working with children and getting to know them and their individual personalities. I enjoy drawing, coloring, doing arts & crafts. I can bake cookies 🍪 and take them to the park, museum, zoo or any other fun places too. Kids are simply my favorite to be around. They are full of imagination. I also speak Spanish :) I look forward to meeting many families and building relationships with them so when they need part-time babysitting or occasional date nights, I can help take care of their lil ones. 💕

"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."
