Hello, My name is Maria. I studied Human Development & Family Sciences (early childhood education) with a double major in Elementary Education and a minor in Spanish.. I am a native Spanish speaker and am bilingual (Spanish/English). I have experience working with children of all ages from birth to adolescents. I love getting to know children and helping them achieve their potential. I am excited to get to know you and your child/children.
“My toddler warmed up to Maria very quickly! Maria was very responsive to my messages, was reliable, and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future.”
Hello! My name is Amada, and I’ve had the joy of caring for children and supporting Bay Area families for the past 15 years. I’m currently offering dependable backup care for times when your regular caregiver isn’t available. My love for children began early as the oldest of 10 and grew even deeper through the experience of raising my own twins, who are now college graduates. I especially enjoy caring for newborns through age 7 and have lots of experience with twins and multiples. I love creating a calm, nurturing environment with storytelling, age-appropriate play, and plenty of warmth and encouragement. I’m also currently training to become a certified infant sleep consultant and enjoy supporting new parents with gentle routines and postpartum care. I’d love to be a trusted helping hand when your family needs one!
Hi! I’m taking time off from studying behavioral and cognitive neuroscience at UCSD and looking for occasional work. I started volunteering at a daycare that my high school had and fell in love with it. I found kids energy, excitement for life, curiosity, and imagination to be contagious. I am a caring, compassionate, patient person which makes it easy for me to interact with kids. After babysitting for over 5 years and working with different families I have gained experience with kids of all ages. I have CPR training, am fully vaccinated and also had my booster shot.
“Great service, she took good care of both of our kids. Very professional and would highly recommend.”
Hello all! My name is Karinna. I'm a responsible, reliable, and optimistic person. I have taken care of my nephew and my niece since they were little babies. I have also had the opportunity to take care of many families' little ones before joining this app. If you'd like to know more about me and/or my experience, do not hesitate to contact me. Have a blessed day! Karinna
“Karinna was amazing! Came in confident and professional. Would love to use her services again!”
Hi families! My name is Chloe and I am 28 years old with about a decade of experience providing childcare and household services for multiple families. I can assure you I will provide the best care for your child/children. I have worked with my primary family for over 5 years, but due to both of the kids now being in school my hours have been reduced and I am looking to pick up extra hours! When it comes to childcare, my goal is to create a safe, warm, and nurturing space for children and I always tailor my approach to meet each family’s individual needs. Growing up with two younger sisters played a big role in shaping who I am today. It encouraged me to be playful, patient, and imaginative, all of which I bring into childcare. I have had the joy of working with infants, babies, toddlers, and children ages 0–12. My responsibilities have included school pick-ups and transportation, meal prep and bottle feeding, bathing, bedtime routines and creating fun, engaging activities that support developmental milestones. I’m happy to help with household tasks such as laundry, dishes, light tidying, and running errands. Thank you for considering me and I look forward to connecting with you! Fun facts about me: • I graduated SJSU with a degree in Psychology • I am a big San Jose Sharks fan • I love arts and crafts and used to sell stickers on Etsy *For scheduling clarity, I do ask that if I am booked for a specific time period and that time ends earlier than planned, I am still paid for the full number of hours reserved. I appreciate your understanding, as this allows me to reliably manage my schedule.

"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."
