Hello šš¾ My name is Olivia. Iām 26 years old and im a student at Laney College planning to get my degree in physical education. I have been working with children between the ages of 2months to 13 years of age for about 10 years and I love it! I am currently employed at the Downtown Oakland YMCA as a childcare provider as well as A para educator for OUSD. Hopefully I can be a great fit for you and your family.
āShe was amazing and flexible. The kids loved her.ā
Hello! My name is Rebecca, but just Becky's fine :) I earned my Bachelors Degree in Theatre Arts (performance emphasis) from San Francisco State University with honors in 2015 and my masterās degree in clinical psychology from Pepperdine University just this year! I am about to start full time work as an associate marriage and family therapist. I had heard so many great things about Urban Sitter from friends, so I decided to join in on the fun in 2015! I worked for Urban Sitter from 2015 to 2023, everything from occasional to full time. Unfortunately I had to take a medical leave last yearābut now Iām healthy, out of school and canāt wait to work with your kids again. It might not be my full time job anymore, but kids are the best reprieve from the stressors of my day job. I have experience with a wide age range, from kids as young as two weeks to as old as eleven years. I've worked with over 100 families by now, so I'm pretty well prepared for what's thrown my way! I'd say the age range I tend to work best with is infant to toddler--but that's not to say I don't enjoy working with kids older. Got a seven year old obsessed with Pokemon? Me too. I'm all for it. Can't wait to meet and hang out with your wonderful kids! Note: Due to ever increasing gas prices and bridge toll, please note that I will usually not travel to SF or across another bridge for a job less than $100 overall. This of course does not include any jobs I may apply to on the job board. There may be outliers to this rule (for example: if Iām already in SF that day), so it never hurts to message me and ask!
Hi, Iām Nina. Iām a reliable, calm, and experienced caregiver based in Berkeley and Santa Clara Valley. About Me I recently graduated and currently offer babysitting for families looking for someone dependable, warm, and experienced. I take childcare seriously and bring a steady, grounded energy into the home. Experience I have over 10 years of paid childcare experience with children ranging from 2 months to 14 years old. My background includes working as an au pair on the East Coast, a full-time nanny in San Francisco, and a babysitter in Los Angeles. Iām comfortable with dinner routines, bedtime, bath time, light meal prep, homework support, and caring for multiple children at once. Iām organized, attentive, and responsive to each childās individual needs. My Approach I focus on creating a structured but relaxed environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. For date nights, I aim to keep the evening calm, smooth, and fun while maintaining the familyās usual routine. My style is balanced, consistent, respectful, and calm. I believe children thrive with clear expectations, kindness, and patience. Outside of work, I enjoy the beach, long walks, and a quiet night with a good book. I also have a dog and a cat, so Iām very comfortable around pets. I look forward to connecting and seeing if weāre a good fit!
Hi, my name is Knar. I was born and raised in San Francisco and currently live in Oakland, with no issues commuting into the city. I have over 15 years of childcare experience and am deeply passionate about providing nurturing, dependable care that supports childrenās growth, confidence, and development. My background includes three years working in a daycare setting and twelve years as a full-time nanny, giving me hands-on experience with children across a wide range of ages and stages. I value building close, trusting relationships with both children and parents and take pride in being a steady, supportive presence in a familyās life. My childcare philosophy centers on creating a safe, loving environment with clear structure, consistency, and care so children feel secure and encouraged as they grow. I am family-oriented, patient, respectful, and highly communicative, and I believe open and honest communication is the foundation of a strong partnership. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light household tasks such as baby laundry and dishes, introducing solids, supporting developmental milestones, and tailoring care to each childās unique needs. Availability update: I have a full-time position and am not currently available, but I appreciate you taking the time to view my profile.

āGinette was absolutely wonderful with our girls. She brought over some special games and balloons which were a huge hit! She was super communicative, punctual, professional, and kept the kids on task for dinner before we left for our event. In the morning our girls couldnāt stop talking about how much fun they had. We hope to work with her again soon!ā
