Hi parents! 👋 My name is Anna, I'm 26 years old, Swiss-American 🇨🇭🇺🇸, and I live in NOPA, San Francisco. I began working in childcare in 2018. For the past 8 years, I have been a trusted babysitter and nanny for Bay Area families alongside my university studies and corporate HR career. 👶 Childcare Experience • Long-term nanny positions: 2020: Cared for two children (ages 4 & 7) for 3 months. 2021: Cared for two children (ages 2 & 5) for 5 months. 2018–Present: Occasional babysitting for Bay Area families (ages 6 months–15 years). • Experienced supporting children with ADHD, Tourette's syndrome, learning disabilities, neurodivergence, and emotional regulation challenges. • Former 1st Grade German Teaching Assistant for a class of 8 students. 🐶 Pet Friendly 🐈 I’m extremely pet-friendly! From October 2023–May 2024, I cared for two dogs full-time for 7 months while my roommate traveled for business weekly. I’m comfortable with all pets and have no allergies. 💼 Professional & Educational Background 🎓 UC Irvine graduate with Honors (B.A. in Political Science, 3.9 GPA). My background is in Human Resources, and I babysit because I genuinely enjoy working with children. While childcare is not my full-time profession, I bring 8+ years of experience, including nanny positions, classroom experience, and ongoing babysitting for Bay Area families. My HR career has strengthened my patience, empathy, and communication skills, which are equally important when caring for children and building trust with families. 🌍 Languages Native English 🇺🇸 Native German 🇩🇪 Native Swiss German 🇨🇭 Proficient French 🇫🇷 Beginner Spanish 🇪🇸 💛 My Personality My friends & family describe me as a sweetheart. I’m kind, patient, and genuinely enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and comfortable. I value honesty, reliability, and direct communication, and I strive to build trusting relationships with both children and parents. 🚗 Safety & Reliability Reliable vehicle with a clean driving record 🚙 Fully vaccinated and boosted 💉 Non-smoker & No drugs ever 🚭🚫 Very occasional social drinker (I prefer juice or coffee if I am being honest) ✨ A Little About Me 🗺️ I love backpacking around the world 🌎 ✈️ ( ✅ 13 solo trips & 33 countries), and spending time outdoors. I’m also a huge animal lover & love to cook! Looking forward to connecting with your family and bringing a warm, safe, and joyful environment to your home! 💛✨
“Anna is an amazing sitter, I can't say enough good things about her. She was so engaging with my *very* active 6 year old. My kid really liked her and he even said she helped him navigate a social situation in the park when some kids were not being nice. Anna is warm, creative, and responsible, and one of the best caregivers I've seen. ”
Hi! My name is Jadesola and I am a CPR certified, new grad RN with my BSN. I am offering childcare and household services. I love working with children. I have over 4 years of experience working as a teachers assistant at the Early Childhood Education Center with a focus in toddlers and preschool age children and additional experience caring for infants. Some of my responsibilities included nap-time routines, engaging in crafts, diapering/potty assistance, snack preparation, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and supervising and engaging in lots of play! I’m also comfortable caring for older children. I can cook and clean and enjoy baking, jewelry making and crafty things in general. While I don’t drive, I can easily commute to your location and assist with walking-distance or public transit pick-ups if needed. I’d love the opportunity to help your child grow, thrive, and feel supported; whether we’re creating art, baking cookies, going to the park or just having a fun afternoon together!
Hi! My name is Eileen and I am so excited to work with you and your family! I have worked with children in a variety of roles from being a camp counselor, camp director, preschool teacher, and an elementary school teacher. Depending upon what you are looking for in a nanny, I can provide support in many areas. I look forward to working with your children and creating magical memories! Please note that my fiancé is immune compromised, and as such, I am unable to sit for any children who are sick. I have to be super careful since any illness could lead to time in the hospital for him. Thank you for your consideration!
“Eileen was aaaaaaaamazing! I gave little instruction and she knew exactly what needed to be done. Enthusiastic, helpful, lively. Would definitely hire again and again. Thank you so much, Eileen!!”
Even though it’s not reflected on my profile as not every family does not leaves a review after the job, making it hard to connect with other families as someone fairly new to Urbansitter, I do have tons of babysitting experience. If you want to hire me for the job, please do so at least 2 hours before the job if on the same day, and 12 hours prior if it’s a day before as I do not have a car and take public transportation or Uber to the job! Hi! My name is Aneyah. I offer childcare and pet care services. I worked at a daycare center for 3.5 years, I mainly worked with children aged 2-6 but I have worked with kids up to the age of 13. I was responsible for supervising, and maintaining a safe, clean environment, playing with the kids, helping them go to sleep, and food prep. Throughout my childhood, I watched my younger siblings and relatives while the adults went out. Your child’s safety and well-being are my number one priority. I am outgoing, energetic, communicative, punctual, and patient. I’m willing to do whatever activities your child wants to do as long as it’s safe and age-appropriate, we could do a baking project, read, play pretend, dance, etc. As for pets, I’ve been around dogs all my life and I currently have two dogs! I’ll make sure your pet is fed and satisfied by the time you get back.
Hello! I’m Berkeley I have been working as a nanny, full and part time for 20 yrs. 15 of those years in San Francisco. I’ve truly enjoyed working with so many wonderful families and their cool kids over the years! Currently looking for a variety of work opportunities with new families. In addition to childcare, I’m also available for pet care and house sitting, and household services. Particularly good at keeping homes tidy, organizing, and helping in the kitchen. Experience with premature babies through 12 years old. The last 10 years almost exclusively with multiple children, siblings and twins. Mostly newborns and toddlers. The majority of jobs I’ve had started in infancy and transitioned into toddler years. My childcare style is patient, kind, calm. I have a solid understanding of developmental stages, age appropriate activities, and assistance in reaching learning milestones. Strong emphasis on communication and safety! I’m accustomed to the responsibilities of outings and activities, playdates, getting kids to the park is a favorite. I especially like being helpful in the kitchen with cooking and food prep. Used to handling kids laundry, bottle cleaning and sanitation, meal preparation, toy cleanup, keeping home tidy. Also happy to help out with light pet care around the house. Staying organized and adhering to schedules. Thank you in advance for your consideration! Sincerely, Berkeley B
“Berkeley was an incredible nanny for our little one, from when he was about 6 months old to one year old. She’s extremely punctual, reliable, communicative, and tidy— and most importantly, so sweet and attentive with our baby. Going back to work was so hard, but Berkeley made that transition so much easier. We hope to see her again for random babysitting, etc.!”
