Hi there! My name is Michaela & I am a 30 year old cis-gendered woman with many years of experience working with children. In my earlier work experience, I worked for YMCA, SF State's Day Care, as well as growing up with a mother as a kindergarten teacher who loved being in the classroom along side her. Currently, I have experience working in healthcare at Kaiser Permanente & UCSF where I gained so much knowledge about mental health, diabetes, hypertension, and more. I worked with mostly adults, which would make me a great caregiver for seniors, as well as have the compassion and empathy needed for any household. I love pets, writing/reading, and being outdoors. I am also currently building my own consulting practice and looking for stable working hours with UrbanSitter. I look forward to connecting soon!
Hi, my name is Naomi and I am a student studying to be Social Worker. I am offering child care of any age, pet care and household services. I have caregiving background through both personal and professional experience. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am known for being reliable, patient, and kind. I care for my younger brother with autism, other children with different needs, my own child, and my dog. This has given me hands on experience with children of all ages, different needs, and pets. I provide safe, nurturing care, light housekeeping, and can also help with errands. Creating a supportive, trustworthy, and safe environment is always important. I welcome your questions and look forward to helping in any way I can :)
I love kids and have seven nieces and nephews ages 6-17 whom I have been involved in caring for. I’ve babysat for all ages since I was a pre-teen and am currently a high school teacher, in my 8th year.
Hello family, I’m Flavia Martins, from Brazil, and I have been working as nanny for about 14 years. I have a lot of experience with newborn, babies to teenager and experience with kids Autistic, ADHD and Special Needs! I use to drive them around, take them to the park and their activities, meal prep, help with homework and I love to be outside and do arts and crafts with kids! My last job I watched two girls, 10 months an 4yo. I worked for this family for about 2 years and now I'm currently looking for one time job, part time job or/and weekends job. I'm very friendly person, easy going, patient and lovely. I also have two kids of my own, one is 17yo boy and my girl is 13yo! I have a CPR and I'm fluent Portuguese language too. I have good references, if you need too.
“Flavia is fantastic all around! She has helped our family several times and is very reliable and dependable. She is excellent with our 3-year old boy and 1-year old girl and they love it when Flavia comes over. Flavia has great positivity and energy and plays very well with the kids. Flavia also communicates very well and is very responsive. Further, she is extremely helpful around the house with any cleaning or chores that could be needed. Highly recommend!”
Mother of four with years of hands-on experience caring for children from infants to teens often at different stages all at once. I’ve also cared for my young grandnephew and truly enjoy engaging with kids through play, learning, and daily routines. I can help with homework, read books and prepare meals. Fluent in Spanish, I’m happy to speak with children or introduce them to the language in a fun, casual way. Available most weekends and for late-night care.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"

"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
