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 :)
I have worked with kids 5 months - 10 years old. I like to do laundry (wash, fold, put away) and dishes. I have some experience caring for a senior as well, so am open to various opportunities.
⸻ Hello! I’m Annette — a retired biomedical executive, proud mom of two grown sons, and an active, hands-on grandmother who loves staying busy and helping others. I’m energetic, dependable, and looking for some part-time work to supplement my fixed income while doing something meaningful and enjoyable. My daugther-in-law is a trained daycare giver and gives me great tips when I’m watching my grandsons for extended days. I just completed the AHA First Aid & CPR AED training for adults and pediatrics. My professional background is in marketing communications and branding, and I hold a master’s degree in business. Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of mentoring young professionals and leading teams. I also have experience in medical device sales and have owned my own businesses in public relations as well as clothing thrift and consignment. I adore children and dogs and enjoy helping with the daily routines that keep a household running smoothly — from organizing and scheduling to homework, art projects, music, sports, cooking, and light cleaning. I live locally, have a flexible schedule, and would love the opportunity to lend a hand wherever I’m needed. Warm regards, Annette
Hi my name is Patrick but go by my preferred name Benny. I live and work in San Francisco in the financial services industry on the client services team. I’ve always loved working with kids and have experience looking after toddlers and kids having two young boy cousins (current age 7 and 5) who I care for from time to time. I can cook and complete other household chores as needed and am looking forward to helping families in the city!
Hi! My name is Grace and I'm currently in school for my Masters in Social Work. I am offering child care and senior care. I love pets, too! Child care experience: I have 5+ years working with kids between the ages of 0-18 in educational and therapeutic contexts. I love playing sports, doing arts activities, exploring, & letting kids be themselves. I have experience cooking healthy, delicious meals, helping with homework, implementing bedtime routines, changing diapers, and helping out with chores. Senior care experience: I am someone who grew up spending time with my grandparents and great-grandmother, playing cards together, cooking steaks, riding horses, driving, and talking. I also spent a lot of time by my grandfather's bedside while he was passing away, helping him to be comfortable and to know that he was loved. In addition to offering my presence and connection, I am able to drive, cook, clean, do laundry, organize, and run errands, too. I hope to hear from you!
“We were so fortunate to have Grace care for our three children on an as-needed basis. She is kind, patient and thoughtful, and our kids always felt safe and happy in her care. Beyond childcare, she has a natural gift for working with seniors, offering both companionship and support with special needs in a way that shows genuine compassion. She is honest, trustworthy, and dependable. These qualities gave us peace of mind whenever she was with our family. I highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for a reliable and caring person to help with their loved ones.”

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
