She quickly connected with my kids and put them at ease. She brought some fun toys and games that engaged the kids and they had a blast. Highly recommend!”

Hi! My name is Nicole and I am a current Speech-Language Pathology Masters student at CSUMB. I graduated with my BS in Child Development from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo in June of 2025 and have 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience. I am passionate about individualized care and have a thorough knowledge of social, emotional, and physical needs across development. I am looking for part time and occasional care positions and would love to connect if I seem like a good fit for your family!

“Nicole is new to urban sitter because she just moved to Monterey from grad school. She is wonderful! We were visiting for a weekend and she watched our three young girls for the evening. Nicole was prompt, equally comfortable with an infant and school age kids … we regret that we live far away and won’t catch Nicole regularly!”

Booked by 1 family in Chualar, CA

Hi! My name is Olivia and I am currently a full-time graduate student at California State University, Monterey Bay, studying Speech-Language Pathology with the goal of being a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist for children with special needs. I am CPR-BLS certified and can provide you with my certificate! I have worked with children ranging from infants to teenagers for almost a decade! In the past five years, I have worked as a lead teacher for after-school group care at elementary schools throughout San Luis Obispo, and most recently as an assistant teacher at a special-needs preschool with children ages 2-5. Currently as I’m in school, I’ve been doing several babysitting jobs on the weekends through an agency that has a partnership with hotels in the area. Additionally, I have experience and a deep passion towards caring for children with special needs, including but not limited to the autism spectrum, Down syndrome, and other behavioral needs, as well as familiarity with children using augmentative and alternative communication devices (AAC). I strongly believe that every child deserves nothing less than top notch care and advocacy for their unique needs. I’m also a huge supporter of creativity and the arts! I received my bachelor’s degree in 2024 from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo in Studio Arts (painting and drawing), and have taught various art camps and classes for kids ages 3-14 including painting, ceramics, papier-mâché, and more. I’m a pet lover and have two dogs of my own! I’m happy to help with feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company. I understand that your children are your greatest gift, and thank you so much for trusting me with that care. I look forward to meeting you!

“Olivia was wonderful! We were staying at Carmel valley ranch and she came over to watch two of our kids. ”

"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!"
