Hi, my name is Liz! :) I currently work in healthcare and am looking to babysit during my free time. I love kids and have been babysitting since I was 13, and I have experience with kids of all ages. I’m bilingual, easygoing, and happy to help make food, clean, homework, arts and crafts, or taking the kids to the park. I also drive, so I can help with school pick-ups and drop-offs or running errands if needed. I’d love to help out and get to know your family!

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.
