Hello! My name is Maddie and I'm a first grade teacher. I have a Master's in Teaching, two teaching credentials, and a BA in History. I'm looking for occasional jobs in order to supplement my income, especially during school breaks. My hobbies include cooking/baking, reading, and playing video games. I am comfortable with children of all ages, including those with special needs. I worked as a nanny for many years before beginning my teaching career. I also love pets! If you are looking for excellent child care, reach out to me!
“Our kids loved Madeline! She is lovely and we’re excited to work with her again. ”
Hi families! I’m Diamond, a proud Bay Area native and someone who has always had a natural love for caring for children. While I currently work in the legal field, caring for children has remained a meaningful part of my life for over 15 years, and it’s something I genuinely look forward to doing in my evenings and weekends. My experience with children started at a young age as a babysitter and grew into working for daycares and becoming a personal nanny for several wonderful families while I was in college. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to care for children from newborns all the way through their teenage years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each child and learning what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Since 2019, I’ve also had the privilege of serving as a Special Court Advocate (CASA) for abused and neglected foster youth in the San Francisco Bay Area. Being a CASA has strengthened my passion for advocating for children and has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, consistency, and creating a safe space where children feel heard and valued. One of my favorite things about childcare is watching children grow and being someone they can feel comfortable around. In fact, many of the children I’ve cared for over the years have become like family to me. I don’t take that trust lightly. I believe in treating every child the way I would want my own children to be treated—with kindness, patience, respect, and genuine care. I also understand that every family is different. I’m happy to follow the routines and guidelines that are important to you, whether that means sticking to a bedtime routine, limiting screen time, accommodating dietary restrictions or allergies, helping with homework, or simply making sure your little one has a fun and engaging evening. My goal is for parents to feel completely comfortable and confident when they leave their children in my care. You shouldn’t have to wonder if your children are safe, happy, or being well cared for; I want you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family’s support system and, most importantly, to make sure your little ones feel safe, seen, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️
I’ve been on UrbanSitter for the past 6 years, and working with kids is something I truly love. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or just being a positive and caring presence, I enjoy building meaningful connections with the families I work with.
I bring to the role a solid background in child development and many years of professional nanny + teaching experience. I am a trained NCS and a pediatric sleep coach. My availability varies for occasional or regular care, whether it is for your newborn, toddler, after school support, or sleep training your baby. I am a reliable caregiver and responsible driver, CPR/ First Aid trained and vaccinated.
Hello! My name is Breanna Vargas, and I am a 20-year-old babysitter based in Lafayette, California. I have over 3 years of childcare experience. I cared for children for 3 years in Mexico and also have childcare experience here in the United States. I have experience caring for children of all ages and can provide excellent references. Spanish is my first language, and I am currently learning English. Having long conversations in English can still be challenging for me, but I have successfully worked with English-speaking families. I recently cared for a one-year-old child, and we always had good communication regarding his care, routines, and needs. I stopped caring for him because I started school. I am a patient, loving, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver who truly enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn and grow in a safe and nurturing environment. I would be happy to answer any questions and provide references upon request.
“I highly recommend Breanna as a babysitter. She has cared for my child on weekends and has always been very responsible, punctual, and trustworthy. She is caring, patient, and has a wonderful connection with children. She also teaches them Spanish in a natural way through games, songs, and activities, which we really appreciate since it is a second language for our child. She always arrives on time, follows instructions, and makes sure my child is safe, well cared for, and happy. I feel very comfortable leaving my child in her care and would absolutely hire her again and recommend her to other families.”

"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!"
