Hi, my name is Nicole and I have over ten years of experience caring for children from 13 weeks old to 11 years old. I love reading, singing, and playing outdoors with kids. I am based in San Francisco and am comfortable working with pets.
Hello! My name is Liz. I have an 18 year old daughter who is at college out of state. I work at a surgical center Monday through Friday and I specialize in patient care. Now that my own daughter is away at college, I have a lot of free time on weekends. I have experience caring for young children and babies through babysitting for friends and family. I love spending time with children because it brings back wonderful memories and experiences with my own daughter.
Hi - my name is Emma. I have a full time job as a paralegal in San Francisco but am looking to work part time to fill my free time. I am available for child care, senior care, pet sitting or general household help. Child care experience: I grew up babysitting my three younger siblings and four younger cousins. I have also tutored on and off for years, mostly general homework help for middle/high school students. Senior care experience: I spent a lot of time helping to take care of my grandpa before he passed away. Pet care experience: I have three cats at home, including one with a disability (cerebellar hypoplasia), who I love taking care of. I have also had dogs/fish in the past.
Hello, I'm Kate! Although I'm new to UrbanSitter, I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 14 years old (8+ years of experience total). Additionally, I have 5+ years experience as a day camp counselor, ranging from general camp to skateboarding specific day camps. I am also comfortable taking care of seniors. I love dogs/pets and have experience dog and house sitting as well. I have worked with kids/adults of all ages and also have experience working with differently-abled individuals. I am no stranger to medication routines and/or alternative activities that best meet the person's needs. I am a recent college graduate who loves to spend time outside skateboarding, biking, and hiking. I graduated from a design program and love to do arts and crafts/projects with the people I care for. I am calm, organized, kind, and timely. I am always happy to work with the individual to come up with activities they enjoy or help them complete pre-determined activities you set up!
Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a student at UC Irvine with experience working with children in a variety of settings. As a former swim instructor, I’ve worked with kids of all ages, helping them build confidence while always putting safety first. Through that role, I received CPR training and was previously CPR certified, giving me a strong foundation in emergency response. I’ve also volunteered at an elementary school, where I supervised and supported children in a positive and encouraging environment, and participated in youth programs that strengthened my leadership and communication skills. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors, I strive to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and someone families can count on. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children!

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"

"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
