“She is simply the best! Her persona and heart is so amazing. Our son loved her since day one. He was so comfortable with her. She is extremely kind and patient with not only pur son but with us too. Anyone would be so lucky to have her entrust their babies.”
Hey everyone! I’m Dominika, a nanny with 7 years of experience caring for children. My experience spans various age groups, including strong experience with infants (including sleep training) as well as children ages 2–13. I’ve completed an Early Childhood Education program to ensure I provide the best care for your kiddos! 😊 If you’re interested, I’d be more than happy to share more details about my past experience through direct messages. I consider myself a proactive, loving, and reliable nanny who truly enjoys spending time with children. I like to keep things fun, engaging, and organized, while also making sure each child feels safe and supported. I really value open communication and am always happy to adjust to each family’s needs and routines. I also have a driver’s license, my own car, and I’m CPR certified. If you’re interested, I’d love to share more about my experience and chat further; feel free to message me anytime!
My name is Julia. I’m 28 years old and I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Development. I love children very much. I was a kindergarten teacher for years and an au pair in the US for six years working for two loving and amazing families In Mill Valley, CA. I am now a permanent citizen. I’m very comfortable with any age group. Have tons of experience with newborns as well! I have just moved back to the Bay Area after living in South Lake Tahoe for about a year. I am a very outdoorsy person and I love dogs, cats and reptiles! I am very organized, love fitting in some kitchen tidying up and laundry folding while the kids nap! Please make sure any overnight requests are made at least one week in advance. I was also a house manager for years for the same families I babysat, so I’m super comfortable with house sitting, dog sitting, tidying up the home, driving around to help you with errands and more :) feel free to lay on me all your needs and I can do my best to accommodate them. - willing to remove shoes, wear masks or any other personal family requirements you might have.
“Julia was great to work with! Quick to respond to texts and last minute changes and really flexible when our baby didn't go to bed as planned! She was also incredible creative with coming up with soothing techniques! Would definitely hire her again!”
Hi, I’m Colleen! l’m a San Francisco native and have babysat for over 100 different families here. I've babysat infants and children up to 12 years old, so I have experience with all ages! I babysit for many families who have 3 children under the age of 4 so I am very comfortable managing multiple young children. I also have my own car and I am comfortable driving children. I'm very organized, always on time, and very tidy, so I'm always cleaning up after children. :) I've always loved babysitting and hope to find more families to babysit for!

"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."
