Hi families! I’m Sienna, and I grew up in San Francisco and am a 2nd year at San Diego State University. I've been caring for kids and pets for about six years now. I started out babysitting my neighbors’ little ones when they were tiny toddlers—now the boy is 8 and the girl is 4, and watching them grow has honestly been the sweetest part of the job. I’m patient, playful, and creative, and I always make sure kids feel safe, happy, and supported—whether we’re powering through homework, building forts, or just hanging out and being silly. I also have plenty of experience cat sitting and dog sitting. ’m dependable, respectful, and super easy to get along with, and I take pride in being someone families can count on. I’m brand new to UrbanSitter, which is why you won’t see reviews on my profile yet—but I do have references who can vouch for me. Feel free to ask, and I’ll gladly share their phone numbers! Caring for kids and pets never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I’d love the chance to bring that energy to your family.
Looking for a part time or full time nanny/babysitter? I have a master's degree in child development, along with over 11 experience working with infants, toddlers, and children in a variety of settings. I love to share activities like stories, art, music, yoga, cooking, and other enriching activities. I also have a degree in music and can incorporate piano, guitar, ukulele, etc. :) I also have excellent references. If you're interested to learn more, you're welcome to call me at[removed] or email me at [removed]
I have experience working with children through volunteering and tennis camps, where I helped teach skills, supervise activities, and support a safe, fun environment. I’ve also volunteered with a non-profit organization supporting children through engagement and care. I have experience with pets through volunteering at animal shelters and from owning a dog. I enjoy caregiving because I like creating a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for children and pets. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. In my free time, I enjoy staying active, especially through sports like tennis.
Hi everyone! My name is Cauanny and I just recently got accepted to UCSD to finish my studies in clinical psychology! As a previous after-school kindergarten teacher, I grew my experience with children as little as Pre-K to 6th grade, and also with different behaviors and spectrum placements. I was the lead kindergarten teacher who ran my own classroom as well as created the curriculum taught M-F. I genuinely love to work with children and strongly believe that teaching a child with love and patience is the ultimate key to seeing growth. I come with several references, and have spent lots of time babysitting, volunteering working in school environments, having experience with the elderly as well as having my own two younger siblings whom I helped raise. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me! I look forward to potentially working together and being part of the day to day of your family :)
Hi! My name is Francine! I'm an experienced, CPR-certified preschool teacher, nanny and babysitter with 20 years of childcare under my belt. I graduated from SDSU in Liberal Studies for Elementary School Teaching. I teach 2-3 year olds at a day school Monday-Friday and babysit on evenings and weekends. I am also a nationally registered EMT! Childcare has always been my passion. I started babysitting as a young teen 20 years ago, watching my little sister when she was a baby. While I attended college for teaching, I worked as a child development & special education assistant for the SD Unified School District. My focus was on helping children with autism and special needs. I have been on Urbansitter since they first launched in San Diego in 2012. This is where I discovered my love for working 1-on-1 with children. I’ve babysat for well over 150 San Diego repeat families through Urbansitter. I specialize in caring for infants and toddlers, but I have worked with children of all age ranges from newborns to middle schoolers. Besides my work in several classrooms, I've also worked as a summer camp counselor at Camp Jaycee and a circus coach for pre-schoolers at Fern Street Circus after-school program. I have done full-time nannying for five amazing families, watching their children grow from infants to intelligent pre-schoolers and kindergarteners. I enjoy being outdoors and doing fun activities like going to local parks or travelling to Balboa Park or the San Diego Zoo. I have a pass to several museums in Balboa Park, so I love to take my toddlers along for fun adventures. I love drawing, painting, and making things from clay. I am also quite the video game nerd and would love to pretend to lose to your kids 😆. I also LOVE pets, so there's no need to keep your animal pals locked up while I'm sitting. I live near Golden Hill, but I work in all parts of the San Diego area. Please note that I have a 3-hour minimum for areas that are north of the 56 freeway. My 20 years of experience working with children make me very comfortable working with any child. There is no situation that I am unable to take on in a cool, calm and collected manner. Thanks for considering me as your sitter! I look forward to hearing from you! *Note: I no longer accept unpaid in-person interviews. However, I am available for FaceTime or Zoom meetings free of charge. Thanks for your understanding :) *
