“Naomi was wonderful with our 2.5yo and 4mo old daughters. She was very professional, and understood the different needs of both ages. Even though 2.5yo is very attached to me, Naomi was able to easily keep her engaged and she even asked when Naomi was coming back to play with her. I would highly recommend her. ”
Hello, I’m Nancy and I love kids! I am a very reliable, safe, fun former high school teacher (20 + yrs) have also taught preschool and middle school. I’m excellent at caring for children of any age, and I have experience working with children who are neurodivergent. My own lovely daughter is now 23! I most enjoy being a babysitter so I can focus on one or two (or 3) children. I love doing fun and creative things with kids -art, building, dancing, playing games, reading etc. I bring optional art projects and books based on the interests of your child, but I like to follow their inclinations. They always come up with something so interesting. I like to nurture their inner creativity, imagination & sense of self sufficiency. I will follow the routine you set. I continue to work with the families who hired me on Urban Sitter offsite. I am always happy to FaceTime in advance. Thank you for your consideration.

“Anna worked for my family for a few months helping with household chores such as dishes, laundry, picking up, food prep, vacuuming, etc. She did a fantastic job, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has great communication skills and was pleasant to chat with. She worked diligently, and quickly learned our family's preferences for the chores we delegated to her. We've hired a few other people to work on these kind of things in the past, and Anna was *by far* the best person we have ever had in this role. Again, I cannot recommend her highly enough. (We would have kept using her, but our schedules changed and no longer lined up.)”
Hi my name is Marie, I'm Irish living in San Francisco! I’m a full time nanny to two great boys for the last six years but looking to meet some great new families for date nights and Weekends! I am a happy loving person who loves nothing more than looking after kids, been outdoors, exploring or reading a good book. I have over 10 years experience minding kids and can assure you that you can relax and be reassured with full peace of mind when your kids are with me!
Hi, moms and dads! I'm Suverce. I’ve been working with children for over 10 years as an au pair, a nanny, a tutor, and an occasional sitter, and I genuinely love what I do. I was an aupair for two years. I used us take care of 2 lovely kids. Luca is 3 yo, and Milly is 11 mo. I like having my time with kids. I`m energetic, creative, fun, and at the same time, a responsible and kind person. I have an easy connection with kids that they like spending their time with me! I would like to tell you about my one day as an Aupair: I take kids in the morning and help them eat their breakfast. I prepare their food, and I feed Milly. I help Luca to get changed. I drive to his school. After I leave Luca at his school, I take Milly to the Gymboree. After a couple of hours, I drive back to Luca`s school to pick him up. I read them books, and we do art projects with Luca. I help him use the potty. We play together, and if the weather is good, we go outside to take a walk. We also go to the zoo, playground, museums.. I help Milly eat her food, cook baby food for her, sing to her, and read books all the time. I change her diaper and do her routines every day. We sometimes go grocery shopping together. Luca loves it! In my second year as an au pair, I took care of Madeleine who is 6yo. We had so much fun.I love to go to the Oakland zoo, Lawrence science museum, Chabot space museum, SF pier 39, some playgrounds, especially SF Dolores park and Piedmont dracena park which are suitable for climbing and riding a bike. Emerville pump it up, Oakland sharks ice skating and Alameda ceramic painting place are good opportunity for rainy days. Before I was an au pair, I worked in the kindergarten as a volunteer for almost a year. I played with them and did lots of art-crafts. I helped them eat their lunches and brush their teeth. I taught them colors, numbers, arts and crafts,etc. (About me: I graduated with a degree in chemical engineering and completed a master's in engineering management at CSU East Bay. I am currently employed as a project manager for a construction contractor.)
