Hi!! I’m a responsible, patient, and reliable caregiver with 4+ years of childcare experience. I spent 3 years working in an after school program, helping children ages 6–12 with homework, activities, and daily routines. For the past 1.5 years, I’ve been caring for two wonderful children who are now 2.5 and 5 years old. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Nursing in Mexico, which has given me foundation in child safety, health, development, and overall well-being. I'm also fluent in English and Spanish I’m very familiar with children’s sleep schedules and bedtime routines, and I’m happy to help make evenings run smoothly with baths, stories, and calming activities before bed. Beyond childcare, I can help with kids’ laundry, tidying up after activities, and preparing simple meals and snacks. I love creating a safe, positive, and organized environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. Whether we’re reading stories, doing crafts, playing outside, or having a dance party in the living room, I enjoy making each day both fun and engaging while keeping routines on track. I look forward to getting to know your family!

Hello!! My name is Eva, I’m 33 years old, and I’m originally from the South of Spain. I have been living and working in San Francisco for 5 years.

Furthermore, I can cook really good spanish food, I can drive or do any other task. Thanks! 😊
Hi everyone! I'm Tessa and I'm a recent grad from UC Santa Barbara who is originally from the Bay Area. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I get along great with kids and have been babysitting/nannying since I was in high school. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and young kids, but am open to all ages! I have helped with school pick-up/drop-off, tutored, improvised fun games, and facilitated many a crafts! I grew up with three dogs, a cat, hamsters, and chickens, so I feel quite comfortable around most pets. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. Please let me know if you have any questions for me!

"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."
