Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and patient babysitter with experience caring for children ages 1–12 through babysitting family members. I enjoy doing arts & crafts, painting, reading, going on walks, and finding fun, age-appropriate activities to keep kids engaged. I’m looking for part-time opportunities and am flexible with hours when communicated in advance.

I’d love to help your family and make sure your little ones feel safe, happy, and cared for!
Hello Families! My name is Keren, I’m from Colombia and I have 6 years of professional experience caring for children from 4 months to 5 years old. I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving, and stimulating environment where children can grow and thrive. My childcare approach is inspired by Montessori principles and respectful parenting, encouraging independence, curiosity, and kindness. I believe in engaging children through creative play, storytelling, music, outdoor activities, and hands-on learning experiences. I adapt my activities according to each child’s age, personality, and needs. I am CPR certified, pet-friendly, a strong swimmer, and a non-smoker. I am comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, managing daily routines such as feeding, naps, diaper changes, potty training and developmental activities. I also enjoy helping with light meal prep and keeping play areas organized. As a native Spanish speaker with basic English skills (improving every day), I’m happy to introduce children to a second language in a natural and fun way. Families I’ve worked with describe me as patient, trustworthy, and responsible, with a genuine love for children. I value open communication with parents to ensure we are always working together in the best interest of the child. My goal is to become a positive and dependable part of your family’s support system, helping your little ones feel safe, loved, and excited to learn. I look forward to meeting your family and providing care that is both professional and full of heart.
I am a warm, caring, and dependable nanny with over five years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they feel supported, understood, and encouraged to grow. I consider myself responsible, patient, organized, intuitive, and kind. While many people can watch children, I believe that building a genuine connection with them is what truly makes a difference. I focus on forming strong bonds based on trust, respect, and communication, and I always strive to make children feel comfortable and valued. I am attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality, and I take pride in being someone families can rely on. I love helping children learn, explore, and develop through play, creativity, and daily routines. My goal is always to support both children and parents by providing consistent, thoughtful, and high-quality care.
Hello, and nice to meet you! My name is Rabiya (you can call me rabi), I am 28 years old and have lived in San Francisco for about five years now, (shortly after graduating from UC Davis in 2021). I am a certified nurse assistant, and will be starting nursing school next year to become a pediatrics nurse. I absolutely adore kids, and have experience teaching at an after-school learning center. I have also nannied for my friends, families, and neighbors many times in the past and would love to help you and support in any way. I can be available last minute on weekdays or evenings, and you can rely on me to not flake or cancel last minute. I'm located in the lower pac heights neighborhood, and very much open to meeting in person or facetiming - whatever makes you feel comfortable. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family. Best, Rabi

"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."
