Hi! I’m Guidi, dependable, calm, and patient with animals. I provide safe, consistent care and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I send frequent updates and follow all instructions carefully. Whether your pet likes long walks, quiet companionship, or lots of playtime, I’m here to help.
“Guidi is great”
I’m a mom of five amazing kids, ranging from elementary school to high school, with years of hands-on experience caring for children through every stage—from newborns and toddlers to teenagers. As a co-parent, I now have more flexibility in my schedule and would love the opportunity to support another family. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and miss the baby and toddler years. Whether it’s rocking a baby to sleep, reading stories, building forts, playing outside, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I’m happy to jump in wherever I’m needed. Families describe me as patient, dependable, calm, and nurturing. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can trust, and I would treat your children with the same care and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can count on.

My name is Gina, I am 31 years old, I’m a very easygoing girl, responsible, organized and patient. I’m looking for part time jobs and occasional babysitting on weekends. I live in San Francisco. A little bit of my experience: I was an au pair for 3 years, I took care of my two host kids since 2019 until 2021, a 18 month old baby boy and a 5 years old boy. Since I finished the program I started a full time job taking care of an 8 months old baby boy (Jan 2022-April 2024), the family had a baby girl at the end of the year 2023), so I watched her occasionally. They moved out of the city so we finished our contract. Started part time with a 9 months old baby girl (June 2024-currently) The family welcomed their second baby girl on September 2026, so I’m now watching the baby while the oldest girl goes to school in the mornings and then both kids after school. I’ve been babysitting on weekends another ages and multiple kids (ages newborns- 10 years old) I absolutely love children! I speak Spanish and English fluently. I am a nurse in my home country, a non-smoker as well as have a clean driving record. I’m fully vaccinated (including two booster) against COVID-19. I am also a dog owner so I would definitely not mind being around yours pets. I’d be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone.
“Gina arrived on time and our daughter definitely had separation anxiety right away. Gina was so gentle, patient, and kind. They were the best of pals by the end of the day. Just so grateful for Gina stepping in to help us this week (and potentially in future weeks if stars align). ”
Hello families! I’ve been a nanny for six years, I have experience in childcare since I was 18 years old, in my home country and here. I worked with many families in the area and I volunteer with school support in the past, I had 4 dogs and 2 cats myself so I love pets and if you have pets that is great, we will get along too. I’m currently working full time with a family and we have been together almost three years on this journey and they will be happy to share a recommendation for you. My goal is for your kids to have a nice time together as we play and learn safely and for you to trust they’re in good hands, I would love the parents to communicate any particular details, needs, even if it is small, a house rule, about the kids, if it’s important for you I’ll do my best. 🤍 excited to meet you!
“Luz was great, would recommend her!”
Hi! I'm Hannah. I grew up in Santa Rosa and moved to San Francisco in August of 2024. I have a bachelor's degree in environmental and ocean sciences from the University of San Diego and I recently started working as an office engineer in construction. I happily nannied part time for a family for the last two years while living here in San Francisco. Since taking on a new role in the office I can no longer meet their scheduling needs, though I still babysit for them occasionally and formed a very close bond with their girls. I love spending time with kids and I'm trying to make some extra money to save in addition to my office job. I'd love to take on occasional babysitting roles. Please don't hesitate to reach out to chat or with any questions :)

"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."
