Hi, my name is Azul, I have a degree in Social Communication. I have 6 years of experience in taking care of babies, toddlers + kids. Have CPR and First Aid certifications. Bilingual: English and Spanish. California DL with a clean record (experience driving kids).
“Azul filled in for us when our nanny was out of town. She was absolutely amazing with our 1-year old daughter. She communicated so well with her and really helped her feel comfortable almost immediately. She played so well with our daughter and at the end of each day, our daughter was so happy. We couldn't have asked for a better short-term caretaker. We would feel incredibly comfortable using Azul for the long-term, and we can't wait to use Azul again in the future!”
I have worked with kids 5 months - 10 years old. I like to do laundry (wash, fold, put away) and dishes. I have some experience caring for a senior as well, so am open to various opportunities.
Hi, my name is Lauren and I'm a 24 year old Bay Area native. I grew up in San Mateo and went to SI in the Sunset for high school! I graduated from Northeastern University in 2024, and have been working in tech since. In my free time, I’m super passionate about health and wellness, fitness, and cooking. I am offering child care and household services and have a flexible schedule right now during the week through the end of September. I’m an energetic, responsible, respectful, kind and caring person and have a background volunteering with children and adults with disabilities. I also have lots of experience looking after friends and families, and was a babysitter in college. More than happy to cook, clean, and run errands. As an older sister, these things come naturally to me! I have booked with five families on UrbanSitter in the past, and am looking to babysit again, tutor, or help around the house. Happy to provide a reference.
Hey parents! I’m Sarah and with over 10 years of experience babysitting and teaching, I’m here to make your life a little easier by providing awesome childcare, tutoring, and household support. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I’m confident I can be a great fit for your family. I have a master's degree am fluent in Mandarin and would be happy to teach your kids Mandarin and tutor them after school in most subjects. Background I’m a 4th Generation San Franciscan who works as a SaaS Account Executive 9-5 and would love to support you with your children in the evenings and weekends. Childcare Services As the oldest of three (with siblings three and six years younger), I basically grew up raising children. I started babysitting in 4th grade and kept at it throughout middle and high school, mostly working with kids aged 4 to 12. After college, I moved to Taiwan and taught English to Kindergarten and 1st graders and tutored high school students for three years. So whether your child is a toddler or a teen, I’ve got plenty of experience with all ages! I’m fluent in Mandarin and would love to teach your kids the language! I also have a master’s degree from the University of Bath and a bachelor’s from UC Davis, so I’m happy to help tutor in most subjects (just don’t ask me for math help, haha). I’m into sports like volleyball and tennis, so if your kids love being active, I’d be happy to play with them. Plus, I’ve got a 2017 Lexus NX200T and can assist with carpooling. I’m currently working on getting re-certified in CPR and can share references if you’d like! Pet Care Services I love animals, and I’m comfortable handling dogs, cats, and even larger pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or playtime, I’ve got it covered—even if your furry friend sheds a lot. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family soon!

"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!"
