I am local to Marin/SF and a Mom to my daughter who is now in college. In addition to being a parent, I have been babysitting off and on for many years. I have pretty high standards as far as child care goes. I think it is important to engage (not sit on your phone), and make sure the children feel well looked after. I like to check in via text now and again during the job so the parents feel connected and reassured. I'm happy to be in a home with dogs as I have two sweet dogs of my own. ***PLEASE NOTE: I expect to be paid for the full time that you book, regardless if you return home early- appreciate your understanding on this. Thanks!

“Cassandra is incredible - our kids felt comfortable with her immediately and love hanging out with her. She’s trustworthy, reliable, and always warm and patient with the kids. Highly recommend Cassandra!”

Caring for children and supporting families is a path I came to through my own upbringing, which gave me a deep appreciation for the importance of emotional support, secure relationships, and attuned caregiving throughout every stage of development. I hold a bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Human Development from UC Davis, and was recently awarded my Masters of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology from The Wright Institute. I am currently in a doctoral program, specializing in childhood development and neurodevelopment disorders. Through my clinical training, I have had the privilege of working alongside children and families, bringing both a strong developmental perspective and genuine warmth to every interaction. My experience caring for children began early and has continued consistently through family, community, and professional caregiving. Over the past 12 years, I have worked with children of various ages and developmental needs, experiences that have shaped an approach grounded in careful observation, thoughtful engagement, and a calm, dependable presence. As a caregiver, I am attentive not only to children's safety and well-being, but also to how they think, feel, and make sense of the world around them. I engage with them intentionally, fostering curiosity, communication, confidence, and emotional awareness through meaningful everyday interactions. My clinical and practicum experiences have further strengthened my ability to meet children where they are developmentally while providing structure, warmth, and consistency. I view caregiving as a meaningful responsibility that requires preparation, sound judgment, and genuine compassion. I would be honored to support a family seeking a caregiver who combines extensive hands-on experience with advanced training in child development and clinical psychology.

Hi there! Looking for families that need a date night sitter or occasional coverage etc! My name is Claudia and I have been nannying full time for years. I am a nanny/caregiver and a family assistant as well as a certified lifeguard + swim instructor (First Aid and CPR certifications valid) and animal lover!! I am college educated as well (CCSF and SSU). I’m here to make your life easier, so that you can have a worry free night out or work day! I have lots experience working with very busy families with siblings that need to be picked up and driven to various activities, helping with homework, running errands, meal prep, organizing, laundry, bath time, feeding pets and juggling schedules and medical appointments! I will always make sure your children are having fun (playing games, art, sport activities) and are safe at all times, ensuring smooth pickups and drop offs so that they can arrive to their activities/extracurriculars on time safely, and effortlessly. I’m reliable and enjoy taking care of children & teaching, I love swimming and tennis. I have been working with children since I was 14. I’m fun, passionate, attentive, bubbly, responsible and caring. I speak fluent (as well as reading and writing fluently) French, English, Spanish and some Italian. I promise that your children will have a great time with me as their safety first nanny! I have my own car and I’m a very safe driver!

With going on 6 years of experience caring for one family, I developed strong childcare skills, including managing routines, and keeping kids entertained through engaging activities. I have been on UrbanSitter for almost 2 years and have worked with various families as a repeat sitter! I also have experience caring for my younger siblings and cousins in my big family. I moved for to the Bay Area/Berkeley for college, which led me to transition from my previous long-term position. I’m reliable, nurturing, and love helping kids grow! I am able to drive kiddos around in the family’s car and run errands if needed! I don’t own a car in the Bay Area

“This was my first time leaving my daughter with anyone, and Milissa made it so easy. She was on time, communicative the whole way through, and so sweet with my girl. I came home to a happy (and sleepy) baby and total peace of mind. :) She did a wonderful job and I cannot recommend her enough.”
