Hi! My name is Tammy, and I’m originally from the Bay Area. I’m a nursing major focused on pediatrics, and I’m BLS and CPR certified. I’m available for babysitting, pet sitting, or house sitting. I love fostering a creative, safe, and growing environment. Over the past three years, I’ve gained experience working with children ranging from infants to teens through my roles at the YMCA, including lifeguarding, swim instructing, and coordinating the Kids Club program. I have also been babysitting for the past two years, especially through UrbanSitter, caring for children of different ages and helping with activities and daily routines. I also have experience with pet care—I’m a proud owner of a golden lab! I’d love to help out and answer any questions you might have. Feel free to reach out, and I look forward to working with you!

Booked by 5 families in Redwood Estates, CA

Hi my name is Nicole! I am currently looking for occasional and part time babysitting or nannying roles until 10/28/25 before I leave to travel. I have 10 years of experience babysitting and nannying for families and 8 years of experience teaching private swim lessons and coaching swim team. I have supported families by helping with drop off/pick up, after school and nighttime routines, meal prep, and cleaning. My main priority is always to create a fun and safe environment for the kids I work with. I know that by being their caregiver it’s important that I be a positive presence in their lives and support them wherever I can! Additionally, I have taken care of various animals in closing dogs and cats for families over the years. I attended Santa Clara University and graduated in 2021 with a BS in Public Health and Political Science with minors in Biology and Spanish. I speak and write fluently in English and Spanish. I am EMT, Lifeguard, CPR AED, and First Aid certified.

Nicole is awesome, she was right on time, reliable, and really nice with my daughter for the entire day, she was flexible and understanding of situations that may change, I would hire her back in a second!

Hi, Families! My name is Lauren, and I’m excited to be joining UrbanSitter as a caregiver! While I’m new to the platform, I’m certainly not new to caring for children. In fact, when my own children were little, I relied on UrbanSitter to find trusted caregivers for my family. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to give back by supporting other families. I am a credentialed California teacher with the Cupertino Unified School District and have dedicated my career to helping children learn, grow, and thrive. Before becoming a classroom teacher, I owned and operated a licensed large family child care home for 10 years while raising my own two children. This has given me extensive experience caring for infants through school-age children in both home and educational settings. As both a teacher and caregiver, I create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children feel supported and parents have peace of mind. Whether it’s helping with homework, driving to activities, playing outside, creating crafts, reading together, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I bring patience, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm to every family I work with. I’m very active and love sports, outdoor adventures, and keeping kids engaged through play. I’m CPR certified and have health and safety training. I also have experience supporting children with diverse needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and Down Syndrome. Every child is unique, and I take pride in meeting them where they are with kindness and encouragement. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy spending time with our own two children, exploring the outdoors, and spoiling our friendly little French Bulldog. I would be honored to earn your trust and provide exceptional care for your children. I can’t wait to meet your family!

Lauren was great! My 4 year old was upset about having a babysitter and cried when the doorbell rang, but within 10 minutes he was leaning against Lauren - his first time meeting her - while she read him a book. Lauren was prompt, professional, and great with our son- we will have her back!

Hi! I love helping families with babysitting and light household tasks like cooking, cleaning, and laundry. I’ve spent ten years working in education, have experience with kids from K–12, and hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I enjoy doing arts and crafts and simple cooking activities with kids and love creating a fun, calm environment. I’m looking to work with children ages 2 and up, and I’m comfortable around small dogs and cats.
