Booked by 1 family in Ryde, CA

Hello, I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in 2018, and recently received my masters. I am employed full time at a nonprofit organization, and looking for opportunities on the weekends and evenings. I have over 7 years of experience working with children 4-16yrs. My first experience was taking care of my younger cousins, and then professionally working at a school. I supported English-language learners achieve their reading goals. I also was an afterschool program facilitator working with kids 5-10, so I have tried every arts and craft project. I have classroom experience supporting Kindergartners with their dual immersion education & supporting them with their playground activities. I love education and enjoy supporting the development of young minds. I am bilingual and happy to assist with homework, household activities, and chores! I have always enjoyed babysitting and working with kids, which is why I have decided to join UrbanSitter.

Ashley is very friendly, reliable, and considerate of our household rules and preferences. Gets along great with our kid. As an added bonus, her Spanish skills have really helped our child's Spanish learning.

Kassandra Yahoska $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kassandra, a first-year college student who’s been around kids my whole life as the oldest granddaughter and oldest child in my family. I started babysitting outside of family when I was 16 and now have 1–2 years of experience with kids of all ages. I’m studying with the goal of becoming a child psychologist, so working with kids is something I’m truly passionate about. I drive myself to and from school, so I’m always reliable for getting to jobs on time. I love reading, drawing, and listening to music, and I like bringing that creativity into the time I spend with kids. Parents can count on me to be caring, patient, and dependable.

Qianna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Quianna, and I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with a natural love for helping others. I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for the people I care for. I have hands-on childcare experience from raising my two children and babysitting when they were younger. I am a mother of two young adult children and a proud grandmother to a 1-year-old granddaughter, so caring for children comes naturally to me. I enjoy helping with daily routines, playtime, learning activities, and making sure children feel safe and supported. I also have experience helping others with everyday tasks such as companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, and organization. I am patient, respectful, and enjoy being helpful wherever I’m needed. I am also working toward opening my own home daycare in 2027, because caring for children is something I am truly passionate about and plan to continue long-term. Families describe me as reliable, friendly, drama-free, and easy to communicate with. I’m trustworthy, organized, and take my responsibilities seriously. I treat every home with respect and care as if it were my own. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, compassionate care.

Franchesca $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi every one my name is Franchesca, I am a sophomore in college. I grew up by the beach my whole life so I love anything revolving nature and outdoors. I am a very understanding individual when it comes to children, I love teaching my nieces new things such as cooking treats or painting. During the summer I often watch kids with my grandma as she has her own care taking company with age ranges from 2-8. I’m open to care taking for pets as well. If that’s taking them for walks feeding them growing I’m up for the challenge. As well as helping around the house as needed rather that be dishes or picking up laundry for the family I’m always open to discussing any and all help needed. I was in cheer all throughout highschool so I can understand life gets busy and if you need your child to be taken to school or sports related events I am available for taking them to that as well.
