Hi I’m Jhenae! I’m a college student available for one-time or part time work during July-August 2026! I absolutely love working with children! For the past 6 years, I have cared for infants, toddlers, and youth! From part-time babysitting positions, to working summer camps, and volunteer work with children! Families would describe me as caring, responsible, and very attentive. I always prioritize children’s needs while making sure they are having fun! (Away from the technology, of course!) In addition, I have a license and my own car! I am willing to safely drive your children upon request! I am also experienced in caring for pets so I’m willing to help in any way possible! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!
“Jhenae was awesome! She was kind, punctual, and my little guy loved playing with her! Looking forward to booking her again!”
Hello my name is Angela but I go by Angie. I am 25 years old attending my last year at San Francisco State University. My major is Sociology. I have an AA in human development and childhood development. I would love to work with kids once I get my degree. As for now I am willing to baby sit and care of children any ages. I am very respectful, caring, considerate and very aware of my actions, words and thoughts. I totally enjoy working and playing with kids due to their fun persona. My experience began through family and taking care of children through all ages. Then I joined Urban Sitter in 2020 and decided to open up to all opportunities available. I will be so grateful to gain more experience from the experiences I get through engagement with kids. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know. thank you!

“Paula was a dream to work with. We are super careful with our puppy (first time dog parent) and Paula was so sweet and personable to the little one. We could tell she was organized and super detailed just by how she responded to our posting and the questions she asked. We will for sure keep booking with Paula! ”
Hi :) my name is Inderpreet, and I’m thrilled to offer my babysitting services as I work towards a career in healthcare. I’ve spent the last seven years helping to raise my two wonderful nephews, from their baby days to now, and it’s been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I’m all about creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for kids, where they can feel comfortable and happy. While my background is in the biotech field, my heart has always been in caregiving. I’m responsible, reliable, and can’t wait to bring some joy and care to your little ones!
