Booked by 1 family in Santa Clara, CA

Over the years, I have worked for two different families as a nanny. I worked with one family exclusively for nearly seven years. I watched the child grow from 9 months old to 7 years of age. It was an incredibly rewarding position for me. We will always have a special bond. I also have experience with senior care. I was the sole caregiver for my own grandmother after she was diagnosed with dementia. I currently look after my elderly mother. I love dogs. I have two of my own. I take great pride in how I care for them. They are senior dogs, but still healthy and active as can be. My strengths are my compassion, empathy, patience, and attention to detail. I have a passion for helping others.

Hi, Families! My name is Lauren, and I’m excited to be joining UrbanSitter as a caregiver! While I’m new to the platform, I’m certainly not new to caring for children. In fact, when my own children were little, I relied on UrbanSitter to find trusted caregivers for my family. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to give back by supporting other families. I am a credentialed California teacher with the Cupertino Unified School District and have dedicated my career to helping children learn, grow, and thrive. Before becoming a classroom teacher, I owned and operated a licensed large family child care home for 10 years while raising my own two children. This has given me extensive experience caring for infants through school-age children in both home and educational settings. As both a teacher and caregiver, I create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children feel supported and parents have peace of mind. Whether it’s helping with homework, driving to activities, playing outside, creating crafts, reading together, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I bring patience, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm to every family I work with. I’m very active and love sports, outdoor adventures, and keeping kids engaged through play. I’m CPR certified and have health and safety training. I also have experience supporting children with diverse needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and Down Syndrome. Every child is unique, and I take pride in meeting them where they are with kindness and encouragement. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy spending time with our own two children, exploring the outdoors, and spoiling our friendly little French Bulldog. I would be honored to earn your trust and provide exceptional care for your children. I can’t wait to meet your family!

“Lauren was great! My 4 year old was upset about having a babysitter and cried when the doorbell rang, but within 10 minutes he was leaning against Lauren - his first time meeting her - while she read him a book. Lauren was prompt, professional, and great with our son- we will have her back!”

Katia 3 reviews
$40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Santa Clara, CA

I have more than 15 years of experience dealing with children from newborns to 12 years of age, twins and 3 to 5 siblings. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am bilingual (English-Spanish). I speak a little bit of German too. I enjoy working with children. They are so much fun, full of energy and love. I enjoy laughing with them. I like to teach and educate them. I have excellent references.

“If you're looking for a babysitter you can trust completely, Katia is the one! She has cared for our twins since they were 6 months old, and they absolutely adore her. She treats children like her own, with warmth, patience, and endless energy. Katia is always on time and 100% reliable, so you can head out for date night or a weekend plan with total peace of mind. She keeps parents in the loop with photos and video updates, so you never have to wonder how things are going. She follows your routines and rules, handles behavior with a gentle but consistent touch, and makes sure the kids are happy and well fed. She is fluent in Spanish and helped our twins become bilingual, a wonderful bonus for any family. Her English is excellent, and she communicates clearly and kindly. Kids love her, parents trust her, and she makes every visit fun and safe. We can't recommend Katia highly enough!”
