I am a third grade teacher with fifteen years teaching experience. I work at a public school in Oakland’s Glenview neighborhood. I’m a mama of two kids, ages 17 and 20. I have the summer off and looking for some babysitting gigs!
“Erica was friendly, confident and professional, and she easily got into the swing of things with our two young kids. They had a great time with her, and she sent helpful updates as well so we had a nice evening out.”
Hi! I’m an elementary school teacher with 10 years of experience working with children, primarily in grades K–5. I bring a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach to every caregiving role. I take pride in being dependable, proactive, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being and growth. I love helping families maintain structure and supportive routines for their children. In addition, I am comfortable preparing meals, light housekeeping, laundry, and bed and bathtime routines. I value a clear outline of duties and clear communication with families, especially if I take children on an outing, so you are always informed and at ease. I have extensive childcare experience beyond the classroom and am confident in supporting different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I prioritize safety, consistency, and warmth, while also fostering independence and confidence in children. I have cared for babies as young as 6 months. I'm currently in a Mother's Helper/Light Childcare role in San Leandro. With my full-time teaching schedule, I would love to work with a family in Oakland. I look forward to connecting!
Hi, I'm Roselyn! As a mom to an 8-year-old, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring for your children. I have an Associate's Degree in Psychology, nursing education from the Philippines, and I'm currently studying toward a career in Occupational Therapy. My education and parenting experience have given me a strong foundation in child development, safety, and caregiving. I strive to provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment for every child in my care.
I love kids and have seven nieces and nephews ages 6-17 whom I have been involved in caring for. I’ve babysat for all ages since I was a pre-teen and am currently a high school teacher, in my 8th year.

“Noreen helped us with my 2 year old. She was so great taking her to the park and sending me pictures. She was so so sweet with my daughter. She was also able to bring her grandson along one day and they made great friends. Noreen is a Godsend. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"
Natalie O., mom of five

"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."
