Hi there! I'm a 26-year-old who genuinely loves working with children and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for them to grow in. I'm reliable, friendly, and patient, and I truly enjoy helping kids learn, play, and feel supported. I'm CPR certified and have over 6 years of caregiving experience, giving me strong skills in responsibility, communication, and attentive care. I also have excellent references available upon request. I'd love the opportunity to bring my energy and experience to your family! I also have a profile on care.com

Hi, there! My name is Anita. I am currently a full time high school art teacher in Palo Alto. My works hours are between 9 AM and 4:30 PM, but I’m happy to help out with child care and pet care during the evenings (after 5PM) and weekends. I love working with young folks and have taught elementary school kids and high schoolers for eleven years now. I have also worked at Camp Galileo as a Lead Instructor for over three years. My fondness for teaching started when I was in high school when I used to assist in teaching children how to dance and through my high school's child development program where we taught elementary school students physical education. Growing up, my mother ran a day care at our house and being a babysitter brings me back to when I used to help her out with the kids. Regarding pets, I've had pets my whole life and a dog (whom I raised from a pup until his passing) and cat of my own. I'm very comfortable with animals and find that both kids and animals warm up to me easily. My responsibilities can include arts and crafts, homework, tutoring, helping with meals, getting the kids ready for bed, reading to the kids, and playing. I'm happy to assist with simple cooking, cleaning, school or extra curricular pick up (if my schedule allows) and running errands. I have also been pet and housesitting for a few years, so if there’s a need for that, let me know! I hope to chat with you soon!

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.

Have a blessed day! Karinna

Hi! My name is Sarah and I am 28 years old. I am originally from the Bay Area and currently work as a Registered Nurse. I have a Bachelors of Science in Nursing from University of San Francisco and have 5 years of bedside nursing experience. I have worked trauma, cardiac, neuro, ortho and in post-operative care nursing. I currently work in a Vascular Surgery Clinic. While my most recent work experience is with adults, my passion is working with kids. I began babysitting when I was 13 and have experience with newborns to teenagers. In addition to working for UrbanSitter, I also previously worked for Trusted, a Bay Area-based babysitting service that was acquired by Care.com. I have also worked as a part-time nanny. If needed, I more than happy to provide multiple references! Working as a babysitter affords me the opportunity to take a step away from the stress of nursing as well as be a resource for families. As a child care provider, I love providing activities to kids as well as being outdoors. I’m happy to take your kids to the zoo, the park or just out in the backyard. I also love doing art projects and making things from scratch (like ice cream in a bag for the older kids). Thank you for your consideration! I hope to meet you and your family soon!
