Hi, my name is Allison and I am 29 years old. I currently have a full time job at Marin Health Medical Center, so I am babysitting whenever I can. I graduated from Dominican University of California in May of 2019 with a degree in Biology. Before I attended Dominican I went to Terra Linda High School and Mark Day, so I am a Marin local. Aside from my schooling, I like to travel, surf, play soccer, spend time with my family and friends, bake and more. I have been babysitting for several years and I have had experience with children of all ages. I love babysitting because I love watching children develop and grow and be someone that they feel they can count on and trust. Please reach out if you have any questions!

Allison was lovely!

Hi- my name is Adriana. I am a biology graduate at SFSU and I am pursuing a career in Nursing. I have been nannying/sitting for over 8 years now and I have loved it ever since! I have cared for children from infant to teenage years and have gained tons of experience not only from working with children around my neighborhood but also from caring for my cousins and now nephews and niece! I love being able to play and be a kid again and learning new things from children as well. I love walks to the park, playing hide and go seek and even tag! I also like visits to the library and museum. I do ask for a 3 hr minimum payment for cancellations that are less than 24hrs, thank you!

Hello. I am an experienced babysitter/child-caregiver. I am 26 and grew up in San Rafael, Ca. Please read ahead for more information: I have experience from working as a babysitter in high school, and now continue to be able to work some evenings and days I have off from my other job. I previously worked at Opportunity for Indepence, as a direct support professional (Living Skills Instructor). As I mentioned, I have babysat for some families in my community and families I have met through UrbanSitter. I am supportive, creative, and responsible. I have learned to work in different environments and usually find it easy to learn and adapt quickly. I have many siblings and have learned patience through my experience of being with my siblings. The youngest one is 5 years and the oldest is 21 now. My brother is older! I also have volunteered with youth organizations such as, Boys and Girls Club of Marin and Opening the World. I am enthusiastic about learning new things and teaching, especially when it is focused on technology, literacy, and languages. I enjoy reading books, having fun (playing & dances), and also other creative activities. Thank you for your time. Happy and well day!

Xitlalli is such a sweetheart! She did amazing with my 4 month old baby even with the baby being fussy and tired.

Hi, I’m Caroline! I’m 30 years old, currently living in Petaluma, and attending nursing school. I’m available for part-time, occasional, date-night, and weekend babysitting. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. I’m patient, responsible, CPR certified, and have excellent references. I love working with children and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment for them. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to connect!

Caroline watched our 3 year old during a work day while my husband and I worked from the house. She showed up early and communicated well. Our son took to her immediately, and they played all day. He had a wonderful time running around with her, and he was laughing and talking all day. We look forward to hiring her again soon.
