I am an experienced caregiver with a strong background in providing attentive and reliable care for children, pets, and households. From 2021 to 2023, I worked as a part-time nanny for three children, where I developed skills in organizing daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with homework, and engaging children in educational and recreational activities. In addition to childcare, I have experience caring for pets, ensuring their well-being through feeding, exercise, and companionship. I am also skilled in household management, including light cleaning, organizing, and keeping a safe and welcoming environment. My reliability, and nurturing approach make me a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for families.
Hello, my name is Sadaf. It’s really nice to meet all of you I have been at nanny for over 12 years and I’ve been loving it. I work with kids all ages from newborn to middle schoolers. I love my job very much and I take a very serious. I also provide pet care and senior care as well. I love to read. I love to go on hikes. I’m a very outdoorsy person. I love arts and crafts cause I’m very creative and I love to build an environment for kids and adult adults with peace and love.
Hi! I began babysitting in high school and have been working with kids ever since. Throughout college, I worked at an outdoor day camp with preschool and elementary-aged kids. Upon graduating college, I got a job working as a science and garden teacher in a San Francisco elementary school, teaching classes about nature, biology, ecology, gardening, and food. I stayed in that role for 3 years and worked as a part time nanny and babysat throughout that time as well. I now work as a massage therapist in Berkeley and miss getting to work regularly with kids. When working with kids, I prioritize play, learning, and connection, but I also am confident in setting boundaries and expectations when it comes to safety and your family's rules! I have training in social-emotional learning and trauma-informed practice and feel comfortable setting those boundaries in a way that still expresses care and connection. If you have a child with music, art, or food interests, I am happy to help out with those! I have been playing jazz bass for 13 years, have spent a lot of time doing various kinds of art (and have led art weeks at camps), and have led cooking classes with kids. I have also played a lot different sports, including ultimate frisbee, soccer, water polo, lacrosse, and basketball, and would be happy to pass a ball with a sport-enthusiast. I am happy to do various tasks, including making dinner, helping with homework, getting outside, etc. I am able to drive and have a car, so I can also pick kids up/drop them off if need be. I am happy to answer any other questions you may have about my experience! Thanks!
Hey families! I’m Rachel, originally from Germany, and I’ve been living in the US since 2023. Watching kids grow, learn and explore the world around them brings me so much joy and I take pride in contributing to their development in a meaningful way. With my previous experience as a babysitter, I’ve been entrusted with caring for children of various ages, helping with everything from daily routines to educational activities and outings. My hands-on experience has equipped me with the skills to handle different situations, ensuring both safety and fun for the children in my care. I’m well-organized, attentive, and nurturing, with a strong sense of responsibility. I’m also comfortable with light housekeeping, meal prep, and helping with homework. My fluency in both English and German also allows me to introduce a bit of language learning to curious little ones! I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and support you. Please feel free to reach out—I’m excited to meet you and your little ones!
Hi - my name is Keith and I'm currently a preschool teacher. I have 11 years experience working with 2 - 5-year-old children. I believe every child is capable of learning and growing in a supportive environment. I also have an educational background in English and creative writing. I'm a published author. Along with babysitting, I can also cook, tutor English writing / reading, and do household errands if needed. I'm allergic to cats but I'm happy to work with families with dogs.

"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."
