Dear parents, My name is Maja (pronounced Maya) and I'm originally from the Czech Republic. I just moved to Novato after living in San Francisco for the past 14 years. I'm a driver with a valid California DL and own a car with insurance up to date. I am a caring, responsible, trustworthy, patient, polite, positive, warm-hearted, fun, and outgoing person with a genuine love for working with children. I have experience caring for children of various ages and always strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. I enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and educational games that encourage learning and creativity. I understand the importance of routines and am happy to help with meals, nap times, homework, and light household tasks related to childcare. I am reliable, punctual, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. Parents can trust me to communicate openly, follow instructions carefully, and treat their children with kindness and respect. My goal is to support families by providing dependable care while helping children grow, learn, and feel happy. Fully vaccinated.
“Maja watched our very active 19-month-old while our nanny was out and was awesome. She clearly loves kids and our son took to her right away. We would love to work with her again! ”
Hello. I am an experienced babysitter/child-caregiver. I am 26 and grew up in San Rafael, Ca. Please read ahead for more information: I have experience from working as a babysitter in high school, and now continue to be able to work some evenings and days I have off from my other job. I previously worked at Opportunity for Indepence, as a direct support professional (Living Skills Instructor). As I mentioned, I have babysat for some families in my community and families I have met through UrbanSitter. I am supportive, creative, and responsible. I have learned to work in different environments and usually find it easy to learn and adapt quickly. I have many siblings and have learned patience through my experience of being with my siblings. The youngest one is 5 years and the oldest is 21 now. My brother is older! I also have volunteered with youth organizations such as, Boys and Girls Club of Marin and Opening the World. I am enthusiastic about learning new things and teaching, especially when it is focused on technology, literacy, and languages.

Hi- my name is Adriana. I am a biology graduate at SFSU and I am pursuing a career in Nursing. I have been nannying/sitting for over 8 years now and I have loved it ever since! I have cared for children from infant to teenage years and have gained tons of experience not only from working with children around my neighborhood but also from caring for my cousins and now nephews and niece! I love being able to play and be a kid again and learning new things from children as well. I love walks to the park, playing hide and go seek and even tag! I also like visits to the library and museum. I do ask for a 3 hr minimum payment for cancellations that are less than 24hrs, thank you!
Hi! My name is Bella and I am a freshman at Dominican University of California. I was born and raised in San Francisco! I am fluent in Spanish and can understand/speak basic Korean!

I am also a trained babysitter through the American Red Cross! I am active, responsible, and can also help with tutoring or homework support! I love to play sports and run around, but I also love a nice day in with calm activities! I have experience in taking care of young children in my family and keeping them entertained! I really hope to gain new experience in babysitting while providing a safe and fun environment! I can also provide household support. I can cook, clean, run errands, and organize. Whatever you need to make your home life easier and more comfortable! I am hoping to learn new skills, gain work experience, meet new people, and provide dependable support to families. I look forward to the opportunity to help your family out!
“I’m delighted to recommend Bella! Our 8 month old baby took to her immediately. He is going thru a lot of pain with teething right now and I was concerned about bringing in someone, but her calm and warm energy was exactly what baby needed. She also sent great updates and pictures throughout her time with him, and provided the most detailed notes of their time together that I’ve received from any sitter, which is especially helpful given that our little guy isn’t feeling well. She also cared for our and left the kitchen and play area clean and tidy! We are so grateful, big thank you Bella. We loo forward to your next visit! ”
