Hello there! I’m Lily, and I am experienced working with multiples and children of all ages (from less than 1 month old babies to high school tweens). I graduated with a MA in psychology. Prior to being a childcare provider, I worked at a nonprofit teaching digital media and magazine writing to adolescents from underserved communities. Professionally, I’m trained to be a construction manager, which makes my favorite bedtime storybook “Goodnight Goodnight, Construction Site”. All my other professional experiences made me very attuned to detail and comfortable in fast-paced, high stakes environments—qualities that I believe will come in handy when caring for children. I have babysat for years in both NYC and SF through college and grad school. I have recently returned to UrbanSitter for occasional evening / nighttime work. CANCELLATION POLICY As compensation for lost time due to last minute cancellations, I expect 50% of the original booking amount for cancellations with less than 48 hours notice and the full amount for same day cancellations. Payable via Venmo or Zelle.
“Lily is wonderful! She watched our 1 year old son, who was immediately comfortable with her. She handled his whole evening routine, including dinner, bath, and bedtime, and made everything so easy. She’s warm, friendly, and easy to communicate with. We’d happily have her back anytime and highly recommend her!”
Hello Families! My name is Natalie and I just graduated from nursing school. I’ve worked at preschools and summer camps every summer since I started high school, so I have lots of experience with younger and school-aged children. I am CPR/BLS, ACLS, PALS, and First Aid Certified and up to date with all my vaccines, including COVID. I am also bilingual in English and Chinese. If desired, I would be glad to offer tutoring, dog sitting, and household services as well.
“Natalie was fabulous!! She jumped right in with my 17 month old and he seemed to really like her right off the bat. She was very calm and made me feel immediately comfortable. She completely reorganized his toys once he went down which we did not ask her to do but it was such a treat to come home to. We would love to have her back!! ”
Hi families! My name is Melany, and I’m a CPR & First Aid certified nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages from infants to school-aged kids. Working with children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy helping little ones learn, feel safe, and have fun. Parents describe me as warm, patient, and very responsible. I always arrive on time, communicate clearly, and care for every child as if they were my own family. I’m also an international psychology student, which helps me understand child behavior, emotional development, and how to support kids with gentle, positive guidance. What I offer: • CPR & First Aid certified • 10+ years of childcare experience • Calm, nurturing personality • Strong communication and reliability • Experience with bedtime routines and creative play • Comfortable with pets (I love animals!) I would love to support your family and create a safe, fun environment where your child feels happy and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you!
“Melany was a huge hit with my 3 kids. She played with them them and then got them to bed at night. They have already asked to have her back.”
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!

"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!"
