Hi there! I love children and believe that they are smarter than adults often give them credit for. I believe in creating a supportive, uplifting, and safe environment where kids can learn and grow. I love being silly with kiddos and learning with/from them. I am a mental health therapist working on building my private practice. I have a background in working with kids and babysitting kids as well. I have pets and can take care of them, plus do light household chores if needed. I have my own car and have a clean driving record. I would love to chat!
Hi, I’m Tori! So lovely to connect. A little about my experience: I have 4 years of nannying experience with the same family - two kids under 11 (7-11). The kids had packed schedules (a more robust social calendar than I) and I loved helping them hone their talents, taking them to and from activities, and helping with homework. I find it fun and energizing to play and listen to and create with the kids. I also have 3 nephews ages 1, 3, & 5 and I’ve babysat them their whole lives. I’m comfortable with babies, toddlers and kid age. A little about myself: I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve been living in the bay for 7 years now since graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill. I have a Bachelors degree in Biology & Psychology with a focus on child development. In my free time I like to do pottery, hike, and swim in the bay. I love pups - please let me pet your dog! I can’t wait to meet your family!
Hello! My name is Autumn. I have been working with children since I was sixteen years old and I am now 26. I recently moved to California from Colorado in May. In Colorado, I worked for an elementary school where I assisted children between the ages of four and eleven years old, primarily focusing on small group management, and building their educational skillsets. When school was out for the summer, I worked for a popular summer camp called Galileo. I recently worked at the Galileo in Burlingame this summer. Outside of that, I have done my fair share of babysitting and can provide references upon request. I currently work at an elementary school in Millbrae as a SPED paraprofessional. Aside from my experience in childcare, I graduated with a bachelors degree in photography at The University of Colorado Denver. I used to spend my free time volunteering at the Dumb Friends League animal shelter in Colorado. I also have experience in pet sitting and can provide references for that as well. I am an extremely organized and detail-oriented person. I am very tidy and believe that clean spaces will allow for more productivity. I am a very fun and nurturing person. People will often describe me as silly, engaging and loving. I am extremely good with kids between the ages of four and nine. While I don’t have much experience with infants, it is something I would be potentially open to. I have my own car and reliable transportation. I am looking forward to meeting and working with some wonderful and amazing families. Please reach out if you think I’d be a great fit for you.
I am an elementary science teacher in West Oakland looking for an evening job. I teach kids age 4-10 (TK thru fifth grade), running experiments and building community in my science room. Prior to this I was a high school physics teacher for seven years, after graduating from UC Berkeley with a degree in mechanical engineering. I truly love working with children of all ages! I can cook and clean and help with homework. I'm an extremely kind and empathetic and would love to help a family out!

"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."
