Hello, I am seeking a part-time nanny position with over 10years of experience caring for newborns and school-aged children. My expertise includes engaging their age-appropriate activities such as playing games, reading books, crafting, and exploring outdoors while ensuring their safety well being. I have successfully completed child development courses during my college tenure, which has equipped me with valuable knowledge on supporting young minds to grow holistically through playful learning experiences tailored to each individual's needs & preferences. Aside from that, my CPR/AED certification protects against unforeseen circumstances under my supervision. In addition, I am a highly punctual, hardworking, trustworthy caregiver who takes pride in putting extra effort into maintaining cleanliness and an organized environment, including tidying up after little ones finish enjoying themselves by picking up scattered around different areas within the designated workspace. I can help with light housekeeping, cooking, picking up the kids from school and laundry. I am looking forward to hearing from mommies & daddies!

Hi there, I’m Kaelyn! After taking a break from UrbanSitter to work with families independently, I’m excited to reconnect with this amazing community. I’ve lived in San Francisco since 2017 and earned my B.S. in Molecular Biology from the University of San Francisco in December 2020. Now, I work full-time as a Program Manager in the biotech industry (specifically the research side of molecular diagnostics) I’ve been babysitting since I was 2011, starting with family friends’ children & gaining experience throughout HS, College, and Post Grad with a wide variety of ages & number of children, experience with 3mo–12 yrs and 1-3 children. As well over the years, I’ve gained extensive childcare experience, including five summers as a camp counselor at Rawhide Ranch, a Western horse camp in San Diego. As a counselor for 5-12 children a week, between children 7-15. There, I assisted with meals, cabin life, teaching classes, and creating a fun, positive environment for campers. In 2019, I worked as an Au Pair in Madrid, caring for two wonderful girls (ages 8 and 11). I loved teaching them English and forming a lasting bond with their family. Childcare has always been a passion of mine. Whether babysitting or tutoring in science and math, I enjoy engaging with kids through games, songs, and creative activities. Growing up in San Diego as a Disney enthusiast, I still love a good Disney movie night to unwind after a fun-filled day. Looking forward to connecting with your family soon!

"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."
