Hi there, I’m Kaelyn! After taking a break from UrbanSitter to work with families independently, I’m excited to reconnect with this amazing community. I’ve lived in San Francisco since 2017 and earned my B.S. in Molecular Biology from the University of San Francisco in December 2020. Now, I work full-time as a Program Manager in the biotech industry (specifically the research side of molecular diagnostics) I’ve been babysitting since I was 2011, starting with family friends’ children & gaining experience throughout HS, College, and Post Grad with a wide variety of ages & number of children, experience with 3mo–12 yrs and 1-3 children. As well over the years, I’ve gained extensive childcare experience, including five summers as a camp counselor at Rawhide Ranch, a Western horse camp in San Diego. As a counselor for 5-12 children a week, between children 7-15. There, I assisted with meals, cabin life, teaching classes, and creating a fun, positive environment for campers. In 2019, I worked as an Au Pair in Madrid, caring for two wonderful girls (ages 8 and 11). I loved teaching them English and forming a lasting bond with their family. Childcare has always been a passion of mine. Whether babysitting or tutoring in science and math, I enjoy engaging with kids through games, songs, and creative activities. Growing up in San Diego as a Disney enthusiast, I still love a good Disney movie night to unwind after a fun-filled day. Looking forward to connecting with your family soon!

Hello! - My name is Debbie, and I am a medical student at UCSF. I am offering child and pet care services. I have experiences watching toddlers and kids since the age of 18. In particular, I have worked as a camp counselor for 2-5-year-olds for the Neil Klatskin summer camp in 2018. Additionally, I have served as an undergraduate tutor for K-8 underrepresented students through the Latino Student Fund. I understand how much of a privilege it is take on this role and recognize how important it is to be a source of comfort and guidance to children in their childhood and adolescent years. I am also happy to work with families that have cats!

“Debbie has taken care of our cat, Gigi, several times. Would highly recommend! She is communicative, punctual and caring. She also takes great pet photos that have made us feel confident our fur baby is doing well while we're away :)”

Hi, I'm Wendi--a really fun sitter who has worked with kids of all ages for over twenty years. I'm also a mom who has had a fantastic time raising four kids in SF. I love working with groups of kids and was a Nursery Director for seventeen years caring for children from birth to age three. Currently, I teach first and second-grade at a public charter school which led me into the adventure of homeschooling my 13-year-old daughter. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are read, bake, explore Golden Gate Park, and play board games. I have also facilitated regular parenting classes dealing with topics such as anxiety in the home, choosing the right SF school for your child, and how to bring "play" into your daily routines. Your kids will be safe and have tons of fun. I look forward to meeting you.

“Wendi was fantastic! I try not to leave the kiddo with a new person when I need him to be put through the bedtime routine, but we were in a pinch. Wendi took the job on short notice answering saved the day!”

I am a retired Early Childhood Teacher I am reliable,responsible,nurturing and creative. I have many years experience working with children of all ages. I have knowledge of child development children's literature and age appropriate toys and activities. I listen and respect young people. I have energy and I believe childhood should have an element of fun

“Naomi was wonderful with our 2.5yo and 4mo old daughters. She was very professional, and understood the different needs of both ages. Even though 2.5yo is very attached to me, Naomi was able to easily keep her engaged and she even asked when Naomi was coming back to play with her. I would highly recommend her. ”
