My name is Alexandra and I am 27 years old. From a very young age I have attracted and been surrounded by children, but my first paid experience in the US began two years ago, when I decided to travel to this country as an au pair and experienced a cultural exchange. I developed new skills with infants and toddlers, sleep training, meal prep, motor development, crafts, sensory activities, baby milestones and much more (considering I lived with them). I believe that children feed your soul, strengthen your personality, patience, discipline and dedication and that is why I love working with them. I'm CPR and first aid certified. I'd describe my personality as kind, bright and optimistic, and I'm looking for a job that provides me stability and a good atmosphere. I will be available the first week of October and I am located in The Valley.
“Alexa is the best babysitter I have ever had and she is still working with us full-time but we will be with family for holidays so hoping that she could be helpful for another family. I was nervous to leave my 4 month old with someone all day while my husband and I were both at work but Alexa has been so amazing I have no concerns that he is in wonderful hands. She proposed a sleeping and eating schedule and tidies while he sleeps, and is great at keeping him engaged with activities. She is also great with my 3.5 year old who is in preschool but is occasionally around as well. Happy to share more to anyone who is considering booking her!”
I’m a loving, dependable, and very experienced caregiver with a lifelong connection to children. I’m a mother of four grown children, so I understand firsthand the joys and responsibilities that come with caring for children at every stage. Earlier in my life, I owned and operated a daycare while raising my own children, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for multiple children and managing all the day-to-day needs that come with childcare. Since then, I’ve built a career in real estate, appraisals, general contracting, and home renovations, and I continue to enjoy babysitting and caring for children. I currently babysit toddlers, young children, and school-age children. I’m comfortable with different ages, personalities, routines, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and enjoy keeping children engaged with age-appropriate activities while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. After many years of raising children, running a daycare, and working professionally, I bring a great deal of experience, common sense, and reliability to every family I work with. I truly enjoy spending time with children and would love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust.
Hello! I’m currently a student at UC Berkeley studying Biology and Nutritional Sciences. I love working with kids and I’m part of a club where we go to classrooms to teach kids about nutrition in a fun and engaging way. I’m also very crafty, speak Spanish, and could help with any pets as well as some homework help!
Hi! My name is Ally 😊 I recently graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a degree in Psychology, and I bring over a year and a half of full-time experience as an Assistant Daycare Teacher. That role strengthened my skills in child development, behavior guidance, structured learning, and creating safe, engaging environments for children of all ages. Prior to that, I worked as a tutor, babysitter, and provided private youth soccer training, giving me a well-rounded background in both academic and active enrichment. I currently hold a Level 3 Early Childhood Professional Credential and am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED. Safety is always my top priority, but I also love creating fun, educational, and fulfilling experiences that help kids feel confident and supported. Outside of childcare, I love staying active, being outdoors, and being around family and friends. I am also currently pursuing my certification in personal training, nutrition, and women's health and fitness! I look forward to connecting with families and becoming someone your children feel excited to see!
Hi, my name is Ursula and I'm an experienced nanny with 10 years on and off and 3 years with one high-end family. I have toddler experience and care for kids ages 8, 9, and 11. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, school drop-off/pick-up, and meal prep. Looking for extra days Mondays, Thursdays, and every other Saturday.

"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."
