Booked by 9 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi, my name is Faith- I grew up in and love San Francisco. When I'm not babysitting, I'm surf instructing middle and high school age kids, baking, or singing to my cat. I'm CPR and first aid certified for infants, toddlers, and adults. I have experience working with infants and toddlers both on outings and at home, and elementary school aged children at home, sleep away camps, and surf summer camps. I love reading with kids, as well as baking, doing crafts, or leaving the house to walk or go to the park. When working with kids I think it's important to have empathy and and patience, as well as respect for their boundaries and autonomy. I like to resolve conflict by making sure everyone feels heard and allowing children to feel and have space to process big emotions. I take care of my cat, Dumpling, at home, and I have experience feeding, walking, and sitting for dogs. I'm also always open to caring for other pets and broadening my knowledge. In terms of senior care, I 've had the opportunity to intern at the VA hospital in their longer term wards and HDU. I'm happy to provide check-ins, cooking or meal prep services, or companionship. House hold services I can help with are cooking/baking, cleaning, and laundry.

“Faith is super responsible and also super fun! Our son loves spending time with her. Highly recommend.”

Booked by 61 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi there! I'm Brittany- a third generation San Francisco native and USF graduate with a degree in Sociology. Growing up in a big family, I know firsthand how busy life can get, and am always happy to jump in and lend a helping hand wherever I can :) I’ve been working with children for over a decade through childcare, tutoring, and volunteer work. I’m experienced with all ages (infants to preteens), and love engaging with kids through arts & crafts, music, outdoor play, and creative activities. In recent years, I stepped away from UrbanSitter to care for an aging relative, but am excited to connect with more wonderful families. My schedule is fairly flexible, so feel free to reach out- I’d love to hear from you!

“Brittany took care of our 2 year old daughter while we were out. She was prompt, friendly, and got along well with our daughter. She put her to bed with no problem. We would definitely hire Brittany again! ”

Booked by 2 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Lori, and I’m an experienced, caring, and dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. After 15 wonderful years in my professional career, I recently stepped away to embrace a more balanced lifestyle. I’m now looking for a few babysitting opportunities each week where I can do something I truly enjoy—caring for and connecting with children. Being a daycare provider help me financially through college. I’m a mom of two children and raised them as a single parent, so I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust and feel completely comfortable leaving their children with. I was also the primary caregiver for my father before he passed away, which further strengthened my patience, compassion, and sense of responsibility. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I currently babysit a 2½-year-old on a consistent basis and have been part of his life since he was a baby. I’ve also volunteered at Stanford Children’s Hospital in the Newborn Hearing Screening Unit, an experience that gave me additional exposure to newborns and families. I’m nurturing, patient, attentive, and responsible, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for children. I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and preferences and understand the importance of keeping parents informed and comfortable while they’re away. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d be happy to tell you more about myself and my experience!
