Hello, I’m Alyssa. I am 36, I currently work as a lead 3/4 year old teacher through UCSF. I have over a decade of experience babysitting and nannying through urbansitter and I have 4 years of experience teaching in a preschool classroom. I have a double major in Human Development (BS) and Psychology (AB) from UC Davis. I also possess an Associate of Science degree in Early Childhood Education and 8 Associate of Arts degrees. I have current infant first aid and CPR certification as well as trust line (fingerprinting) certification. My upbringing prepared me for a career in childcare. I was raised the oldest female of thirteen cousins and often helped cook, change diapers, and care for my younger cousins with my grandmother every day after school. Caring for children from a very early age helped equip me with a variety of tools to approach children with patience, creativity, warmth, and kindness that I employ every day when I work with children. While I was in college, I nannied with children 1-on-1 for 7 years and I worked as a library aide for 5 years. In the past I volunteered for 8 years coaching volleyball and basketball to 3rd-8th graders, and volunteered for 2 years as a 1st grade English tutor. I began babysitting when a family from work asked me to help watch their three children. I also have lots of experience watching twins and their sibling simultaneously. You can probably tell from my extensive schooling background that providing quality education is one of my core beliefs. It is vitally important for me to contribute to shaping children’s growing minds in environments that are supportive, constructive, and open to letting children try different approaches to learning where they are allowed to fail and grow from their mistakes. I love encouraging literacy, teaching through songs, scaffolding how to try new things on the playground, creating art projects, and incorporating gross motor activity to stimulate retention in the classroom. Thank you for reading and looking forward to hearing from you soon! I have a 24 hour cancellation policy - I will charge 50% for the cancelled booking with less than 24 hours notice. I have multiple references for cat, dog, reptile, and house sitting. I also have references for doing overnight care & before/after school drop-off.
Hi families! I’m a Duke University & HBS graduate with 15+ years of experience caring for children from newborns through elementary age in both caregiving and educational settings (tutoring in Montessori school settings). I believe every child is unique, with their own temperament, routines, interests, and ways of communicating. My approach is to meet each child where they are, pay close attention to what helps them feel secure and engaged, and adapt my care to support their individual needs and development 🌱 I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and highly attentive to health and safety. I also have experience caring for infants and toddlers with severe allergies, including following EpiPen and emergency-response protocols. I offer occasional family support in San Francisco alongside my full-time career. I genuinely love partnering with families and supporting kids as they learn and grow through each stage of their development! 🤍 * Mission-based * 4 hour minimum bookings * Not available for full-time care
“Amir was our daughters first babysitting experience. She was great with her! Kept her engaged with activities. My daughter, 5 yr old, learnt new things to draw and she has been asking about when she would see her again. Recommending Amir for anyone looking to book a sitter. She is friendly and so sweet! We would hire her again”
Hi, My name is Ania, I'm originally from Poland and I've been working as a nanny/babysitter/ mother’s helper since July 2015. I have experience taking care of children ages 6 months to 13yo. My most recent experience: August 2025- now: taking care of 8mo girl (feeding, changing diapers, assisting with sleep training, play time in and outdoors) August 2021-present: siblings 11 and 13 yo, school pick ups, cooking dinner, play with kids, bedtime routine. August 2020- present: started with taking care of 17mo and 4yo siblings through school pick ups and taking them to after school activities when they got older. Recently my role with this family transitioned to family helper (cooking dinner for kids, taking care of laundry, dishes and kids bedtime routine, etc.) I'm trustworthy, caring, very well organized and warm person which loves kids’ energy and authenticity! If needed I can provide references from families I worked for - I'm sure they will be happy to speak with you if you're interested. Also, I'm an experienced driver. I have clean driving record. I don’t have my own car though. Looking forward to meet and work with you! Thank you, Ania
(Currently UNAVAILABLE for new family bookings) Hi fam, This is Lian. I’m interested in occasional babysitting near West Portal. I'm a caring, fun, kind and patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children, and learning from them. I've lived in Chengdu, NYC, and Vienna ,and traveled across 5 continents in my 20s. I'm back in grad school, babysitting, and studying AI that's taking my job in my 30s:( But AI can never beat me when it comes to babysitting:) I speak Mandarin. Always looking forward to work with some wonderful families/children! Thanks for reading, let's connect! P.S. If you happen to have an internship opportunity in data science at your company, I'm open to that, too! 🫣

Concurrently working with three families over nine months, she cared for children aged 9 months to 1.5 years, addressing household cleanliness and caring for pets, including dogs and backyard chickens. In another role, she spent five months nurturing a 1-year-old, dedicating 25 hours per week to create a supportive environment. Catherine's caregiving stands out with engaging activities, from park visits to craft projects like lanyard keychains, bead art, painting, and clay molding. She ensures a stimulating environment, incorporating interactive storytime, scheduled playdates, and outings to enhance social and cognitive development. Beyond caregiving, Catherine is a registered driver for HopSkipDrive, specializing in safe transportation for children aged 4 to 13. Her commitment extends to being a camp counselor at Camp Couture, teaching sewing to kids aged 7-12. Adding a musical dimension, Catherine plays bass in the rock 'n' roll band "Best Mom Ever," focusing on positive messages through songs like "Be Kind," "Be Friendly," and "Be Confident." In a personal touch, Catherine leverages her fashion design background to create personalized clothing for the children she nannies, showcasing creativity and dedication to making a lasting impact. A natural caregiver from a young age, Catherine, the oldest of two siblings and five cousins, possesses a deep understanding of childcare transcending professional expertise. Catherine brings knowledge, creativity, and a nurturing spirit to her role. Whether crafting in the kitchen, leading projects, maintaining home cleanliness, or providing safe transportation, she is committed to creating a positive, enriching experience for the children under her care.
“Cat has been the full time caregiver for my two children, for over two years. She is extremely reliable, responsible, patient and caring. She has been flexible to help with pick ups for my school aged child, and she takes our toddler to engaging and educational activities during the day. I've had multiple parents and teachers from my children's school pull me aside to tell me how wonderful and engaged Cat is. Cat consistently facilitates creative projects, like making jewelry and art. Further, Cat has a wonderful, positive attitude, that makes her a joy to be around. I highly recommend Cat.”
