$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Marina, CA

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!”

My name is Caroline, and I bring many years of childcare experience working with children from 3 months to 14 years of age. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment while helping families add ease and balance to their daily lives. In addition to my childcare background, I am a locally registered nurse, which allows me to provide an extra level of care, confidence, and attentiveness to children’s health and wellbeing.
