Hi families! I’m Sienna, and I grew up in San Francisco and am a 2nd year at San Diego State University. I've been caring for kids and pets for about six years now. I started out babysitting my neighbors’ little ones when they were tiny toddlers—now the boy is 8 and the girl is 4, and watching them grow has honestly been the sweetest part of the job. I’m patient, playful, and creative, and I always make sure kids feel safe, happy, and supported—whether we’re powering through homework, building forts, or just hanging out and being silly. I also have plenty of experience cat sitting and dog sitting. ’m dependable, respectful, and super easy to get along with, and I take pride in being someone families can count on. I’m brand new to UrbanSitter, which is why you won’t see reviews on my profile yet—but I do have references who can vouch for me. Feel free to ask, and I’ll gladly share their phone numbers! Caring for kids and pets never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I’d love the chance to bring that energy to your family.
Hi! I’m Gillie, a recent nursing graduate from Dominican University of California with extensive hands-on caregiving experience and a passion for working with children and families. Throughout my education I completed over 1,000 hours of clinical training, including maternal-newborn and family-centered care, which strengthened my understanding of child development, safety, and compassionate caregiving. I’ve worked with families as a nanny, babysitter, and in-home caregiver, caring for children of different ages and helping with daily routines like meals, bedtime, homework, playtime, and school pick-ups. I love creating a fun, engaging, and structured environment where kids feel safe, supported, and excited to learn and explore. Caregiving has always come naturally to me because I genuinely enjoy building relationships with families and being someone parents can trust with their children. I’m patient, attentive, and very safety-focused, while also making sure kids have a great time—whether that’s outdoor adventures, crafts, reading, or creative play. A little about me personally: I’m very active, positive, and responsible. I love being outdoors, cooking, and spending time with animals. Families often describe me as warm, dependable, and someone who brings calm and good energy into their home. I’m excited to connect with families looking for a reliable and caring nanny! 👶✨
Hi! My name is Alex. I’m currently working in a kindergarten special education classroom, where I get to support some amazing kids as they learn and develop new skills every day. I’m passionate about working with young children and helping them grow in a supportive, fun, and safe environment. I’m a certified Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) and also CPR certified, so I’m trained to provide both behavioral support and a safe space for the children in my care. I love creating routines, using positive reinforcement, and finding creative ways to help each child succeed at their own pace. Whether it’s celebrating small victories or working through challenges together, I truly enjoy being part of their journey. I’m also on the path to becoming a pediatric nurse because I want to continue helping children in a more medical and caregiving role.

"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."
