Hi! My name is Bella, and I’m a 23-year-old college student with years of experience caring for both children and animals. I work as a veterinary assistant, and also worked at a Boys and Girls club. I truly love helping and caring for others—whether that means keeping kids safe and engaged or making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. I’m reliable, responsible, and patient, and I take pride in creating a safe and positive environment. I’m available most evenings and early mornings, which is perfect for morning dog walks or helping get children ready for the day. My hourly rate is flexible depending on ages and specific needs. While I don’t have a car, I’m dependable with scheduling and committed to showing up on time. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your family or pets — feel free to reach out with any questions!

Isabella was amazing with our 15 month old who has major stranger danger! Isabella was able to win over our daughter immediately and our daughter had a great time with her! Isabella is great!

Hello! My name is Eliza and I love to babysit! I graduated from the University of San Francisco in May 2019 with a BA in Media Studies. Throughout my college experience I used UrbanSitter many times and have worked with many families - I love this company and all the families I have been able to work for and connect with through UrbanSitter. I am very flexible with my schedule and have worked with kids as young as 7months to as old as 10-11 years old. Message me if you have any questions!

Eliza is amazing!! Very engaging and very intuitive with children. She’s definitely a true gem when it comes to children. Everything just feels natural with Eliza. Our son really fell in love with her, as did we. She was out first sitter from Urbansitter, and we were more than pleasantly surprised.

Booked by 4 families in Sausalito, CA

I started nannying after leaving my job as a TV producer when my son was born in 2004. Since then I've cared for numerous newborns, babies, and toddlers, including several sets of twins. The last few years I've had the joy of nannying my niece's twin boys who just turned 4. As preemies, they required specialized round-the-clock care that I was privileged to be part of. Now they're healthy, happy, and enjoying preschool, so my time has freed up and I'd love to share it with other babies and little ones. Most recently I’ve cared for a new set of twin boys, in addition to two separate 4 month old girls. Because I’m not looking for full time work, my schedule is often flexible. One of my hobbies is photography, so you can expect plenty of photos of your little one throughout our time together.

Bonita is so wonderful! She watched our daughter Olive starting from when she was just three months old—we were nervous to have someone besides us take care of her so young, but Bonita is so good with babies and made us feel comfortable immediately. She’s incredibly reliable, flexible, and just a really kind and warm person. Can’t recommend her enough!

Hello! I'm Mariana. I'm currently a babysitter of a family with 3 lovely boys (6 years, 4 years, 5 month baby). I'm offering child care, and looking for a part-time job in the weekends. I have a preschool degree, and I had worked as a preschool teacher in Mexico for 7 years. I moved to US in 2023. I had worked with 3 different families (Oregon & California). In Oregon I volunteered in my host kids kindergarten. I'm open to take care of kids of any age! But I love to take care of kids between 2 and 5 years. I also love doing craft projects, experiments, fun activites like cooking, hikes, going to the beach, etc. I can prepare basic meals, snacks, or dinner. Help with baths, morning and bedtime routines and keep the house clean and tidy. I speak spanish so I'd enjoy to encourage your children to learn some of it! I'm a pet lover as well, dogs & cats are the sweetest and I'd enjoy taking care of them too! Thanks for reading my profile and open to chat if you are interested ☺️

Mariana was great! Arrived early, and even put dishes in the dishwasher after the baby went to bed.
