🌁 Hi! I’m a native San Franciscan back after twenty years in Hawaii. I began my nannying career in Y2K, and have cared for little ones (newborns- 5 years) since then in San Francisco, Marin, and Maui. 🐣 Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of nurturing children from infancy through adolescence, including my goddaughter, who is aspirationally kind and thoughtful. 🩵 I bring an empathetic, warm, and grounded presence into the home, and always try to grow the giggles! I aim to create a safe, loving environment for children to feel confident, secure, and seen. 🎨 Trained in ballet, hula, acting, and visual arts, I love to encourage imagination and creative self-expression. 💬 With a background in public relations, I’m highly communicative, discreet, organized, and dependable. 🦺 My driver license, vaccination records (COVID x2/ MMR/ Tdap), and background checks (LiveScan, Checkr) are available upon request. ✈️ I'm able to travel with your family (USA Passport/ CLEAR/ TSA Pre-Check), and am available for overnights. 🌸 Please feel free to message me about availability, rates, or anything else; I can usually reply immediately. I look forward to connecting with your family! Aloha! **For the health and safety of all the children and families I work with, I’m unable to care for those actively sick with highly contagious illnesses such as HF&M, RSV, flu, pink eye, COVID, etc. Thank you for understanding.

Hello Urbansitter parents! I’ve been babysitting children, pet sitting & house sitting for 35+ years, but the last 9yrs here on Urbansitter. I just retired early from my full time job at Kaiser Permanente where I worked for the past 25 years. Prior to that, I worked as a medical assistant for a private Pediatrics office in San Mateo for 5 years. I love kids of any age, enjoy playing games, reading, going to the park, arts & crafts, cooking/baking, doing puzzles or watching a movie with them. I have many years experience with newborns/infants, toddlers, grade school kids & watching multiple kids together. I also drive some of the neighborhood kids where I live, to and from school and their afterschool activities. I have car seats available for toddlers & grade school kids. I have 1 rescue pup, love the outdoors & I have a passion for rescue animals, so I am more than willing to help out with your pets, big or small! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. I try to keep my calendar as updated as possible, but you can always message me to check on the availability you need. I am COVID vaccinated & can supply proof of vaccinations. I am also First Aid, CPR & AED certified as well as fingerprinted & background checked. I look forward to meeting you & your family!

Hello parents! My name is Claudia and I'm from Colombia (A plus if you want a bilingual sitter). I have been working with kids for more than ten years, and enjoy caring for children. I have experience with newborns, toddlers and schoolers. I also have a certificate in first aid and CPR from the American Red Cross. I love pets, specially dogs, and I enjoy having outdoor activities, playing sports (soccer, volleyball, tennis, swimming and gymnastics) but I'm also good doing crafts, art work, table games like chess or planning indoor activities if we have to stay at home. I'm responsible, trustworthy and hardworking. Non Smoker. I have a background and work in science, but I enjoy spending time with kids while babysitting. I am currently living in San Francisco, work as a scientist at Stanford, but enjoy the ocasional babysitting jobs. I also have a California driver license, and a clean record. I can provide strong references too. Looking forward to meet you soon.

Hello! I’m an outgoing childcare expert who taught global policy to middle school and high school students for six years. In this role, I received ongoing training in childhood education and development. Currently I am working on writing and publishing a memoir. I’m a graduate of Northwestern University, where I majored in Economics and Political Science, and last year I completed my masters in Political Sociology at the London School of Economics and Political Science. I come from a large family, and I enjoy working with children. My childcare experience includes infants through high school age. I have also tutored extensively on many levels, including grade school math, high school English, and college economics. For fun I like to cook and play Ultimate Frisbee. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to meet some of you soon. :)
