Hi! My name is Kamila! I am actively looking for a job and offering one-time babysitting, pet care, and household services while I secure an accounting position. I love babysitting and have been watching children for co-workers, family, and friends for the past 5 years. I have babysat children from 6 months to 10 years old. My responsibilities have been crafts, cooking, cleaning, and tutoring. I have a car and feel comfortable doing pickups/dropoffs as needed. I am a fluent Spanish speaker and have helped siblings and classmates with Spanish homework. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for cats and dogs. I love animals (I have two cats and a snake) and feel comfortable around dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles of all breeds and sizes. I am experienced in providing medical care to animals as well. I regularly care for an epileptic, 70 lb dog.
“When she lived in Utah, Kamila babysat my grandchildren on several occasions for a couple of years when they were 5, 7, and 9. Today, they are 8, 10, and 12 YO, and they still talk about how much fun they had when they were with Kamila. Although the kids enjoyed the time with her, they did not deviate from their routines. Kamila was very diligent, ensuring homework was done, meals were taken at the right time (if required), and bedtime routines were followed. Kamila is very responsible, flexible, and will make herself available even at short notice (if she can do it). She is very professional and reliable. I'd be happy to recommend her any time.”
Hi! I'm Gabriella (Gabbii), a childcare provider with 5–10 years of experience working with children of all ages — from newborns to school-age kids. My background includes hands-on work at a daycare center, years of babysitting for local families, and ongoing volunteer work with infants and toddlers. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified, so parents can feel confident their little ones are in safe, capable hands. I'm passionate about creating nurturing environments where kids feel comfortable and have fun. Whether it's playtime, storytime, or helping with homework, I bring patience, energy, and genuine care to every family I work with. I'd love to meet your little ones!
Hi! My name is Tarah and I’m a young professional living in Oakland. I’m new to this app, but have been referred by several clients to join. I love being a babysitter and have been doing it for over 5 years. I’m responsible, reliable and patient and enjoy caring for kids, pets and helping households run smoothly. My priority is making kids feel safe, comfortable, and that they can have fun! I love doing activities with kids like crafts, games, reading, play, and homework help. I’m great at following routines. Such as, meals, naps, and bedtime. You can count on me to be attentive, communicative, and dependable at all times.

Hi there! My name is Michaela & I am a 30 year old cis-gendered woman with many years of experience working with children. In my earlier work experience, I worked for YMCA, SF State's Day Care, as well as growing up with a mother as a kindergarten teacher who loved being in the classroom along side her. Currently, I have experience working in healthcare at Kaiser Permanente & UCSF where I gained so much knowledge about mental health, diabetes, hypertension, and more. I worked with mostly adults, which would make me a great caregiver for seniors, as well as have the compassion and empathy needed for any household. I love pets, writing/reading, and being outdoors. I am also currently building my own consulting practice and looking for stable working hours with UrbanSitter. I look forward to connecting soon!
Hi! I’m a reliable, warm, and experienced caregiver with a background in childcare, pet care, and customer-focused roles. I am a single mother of 3 amazing adult children. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children, including feeding, playtime, bedtime routines, and creating a calm, safe environment. I’m attentive, patient, and love engaging kids with creative activities, outdoor time, and age-appropriate play. In addition to childcare, I’m very comfortable with pets (I’m a cat owner!) and happy to help with light household tasks like tidying up, meal prep, or organizing. I’ve worked in management roles, so I’m highly dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented—families can count on me to show up on time and follow instructions carefully. I’m currently looking for morning or part-time opportunities and would love to support a family who values a kind, responsible, and trustworthy sitter.

"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."
