Hi Folks! My name is Diamond and I am a bay area native. Although I currently work in the legal field, my passion and love for caring for children tend to take over my evenings and weekends. I have over fifteen years of experience with children as I transitioned from a young sitter, to daycare employee, to personal family nanny for multiple families while in college. I am well versed with children ranging from newborn to teenagers. I currently work/serve as a Special Court Advocate (CASA) for abused and neglected foster youths in the San Francisco Bay Area since 2019. Many of the children that I've cared for have become like family, I believe in treating others how I would want to be treated or how I would want my own children to be treated. I take into account and note all guidelines that parents would like followed whether it be electronic use time or food restrictions due to diet or allergies. I pride myself on being an individual that parents can not only trust but want around their children in their absence.
Hi! My name is Megan, and I am currently looking for occasional/ part time babysitting or petsitting jobs while I take some gap years before graduate school. I've been babysitting for about 10 years now, but as the oldest sister I've been helping out with my siblings since I was young. I graduated from UCLA in 2023 with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Anthropology. I enjoy learning about health and medicine in the contexts of development and society. Some of my hobbies include drawing, yoga, and eating good food :) I’ve worked with children of different ages, ranging from babies to teenagers, though I have the most experience with babies and kids ages 2 - 5. I find caregiving to be a fun and rewarding job. While kids learn a lot from us, I find that we learn a lot from them as well. I value patience and respect, and these are qualities I show to the kids I work with. I look forward to working with you!
Hi! I'm Monica — a bilingual caregiver, former preschool and elementary school teacher with over 10 years of experience working with young children. I have a degree in Human Development with a concentration in Child Development through CSU East Bay University and I’m certified in CPR and First Aid. I also have a clear background and driving record. My passion lies in supporting the early years of development, especially for children ages 0–6. I’ve spent years in the classroom nurturing young minds, and I now bring that same structure, creativity, and care into the home. I offer in-home babysitting, homework help, and healthy meal prep — always creating a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for each child. I'm fluent in both Spanish and English, and I love incorporating language development and learning through play into everyday routines. If you're looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and experienced, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
“I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Monica for 2 years, where we collaborated in the field of early childhood education. During this time, she demonstrated herself to be a dedicated, responsible professional with a strong commitment to the holistic development of young children. Ms. Monica stood out for her ability to create a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment, thoughtfully adapting activities to meet the individual needs of each child. Her pedagogical approach, combined with patience, empathy, and creativity, contributed significantly to the social, emotional, and cognitive development of her students. Her strengths include age-appropriate lesson planning, positive classroom management, effective communication with families, and strong collaboration with fellow educators. In addition to her professional skills, Ms. Monica is a reliable, well-organized individual with a consistently positive attitude—essential qualities for working in early childhood education. I highly recommend Ms. Monica for any role within the field of child development, particularly as she begins her new professional journey of opening her own child care program.”
Hello! My name is Moa. I have 6+ years of professional childcare experience. I am completely comfortable working with children, from infants to teenagers. I work part time as an instructional aide, so I'm primarily available in the afternoons/evenings and weekends. I enjoy my job because I love working with children! I am first aid and CPR certified.
Hello! My name is Margaret! I’m new here, and excited to start my part time position becoming your house sitter, cleaner, or pet sitter. I can also pick up kids from school, do laundry or errands and things of that nature. I can provide people who can attest that I am trustworthy, kind, and that I learn very quickly! I am super diligent and hardworking and most of all, focused. Hope to talk to you soon!
“Margaret has been a fantastic helper for our family. She's always punctual and reliable. She works really hard and takes directions well. She takes on any new household task that we throw her way with enthusiasm. We are very happy to have found her and grateful for her support.”

"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."
