Hi! I’m Frankie, I’m a senior at Urban School of San Francisco. I offer cleaning services, pet care, and especially childcare. I’ve babysat for twelve local families as well as my cousin’s since they were newborns. I have experience with kids as young as newborns to as old as preteens, but i specialize in infants to ~five years old. I care for both individual children as well as twins, and multiple children. I believe that children should nurture their imagination and creativity. I try to keep kids off of screens as much as possible through playing outside reading, playing with toys, etc. When I have down time, I will tidy up the house as well. I also have my license and am happy to travel or help with any sort of drop off, pick up, or general errands.
Hi there! I’m Sophia 😊 I have 10+ years of babysitting and childcare experience, and I’ve been part of UrbanSitter since 2018. I started babysitting in my neighborhood when I was younger, and I’ve loved working with kids ever since - especially after moving to San Francisco! I currently work a 9-5, so I’m available for part-time babysitting. I have experience with meal prep, school pickups and carpools, light housekeeping, and planning fun, engaging activities to keep kids happy and busy. I also spent 3 years volunteering part-time at a daycare, which gave me even more hands-on experience with children of different ages. I truly enjoy building connections with families and creating a safe, positive environment for kids!
“Sophia was fabulous with my kids and pets. They were very happy with her and are eager to have her come back again!”
Hi! I'm from a big family so I always had children around and last year I worked as a nanny. I'm reliable and the kids love me! I'm always a happy, fun person to have around.
Hi! My name is Brianna and I work full-time in the Ecommerce field, but am looking to get back into working with families on the side! A bit about me: I am the oldest of 4 and have decades of babysitting experience both professionally and for my own siblings, neighbors, and family friends. I graduated with a Neuroscience degree from UMN in Minneapolis in 2019 and started my professional career as a visitation supervisor for families working towards reunification in the CPS system. I spent time with a wide age range of children and families of varying sizes as well as taught parenting skills during my visits. Following that, I moved to San Diego and worked as a nanny full-time for various families with children ranging from 5 months to 4 years old. I have since moved up to SF, adopted a dog, and would love to work with your family! I’m looking forward to chatting more and seeing if we are a good fit for care!
“We’ve hired Brianna as an extra kids helper for our church’s gatherings multiple times, so we’ve had the opportunity to watch her first-hand with our kids. Brianna is on-time, kind, and responsive. She engages with kids in a naturally warm and helpful way, and communicates well with parents and volunteers, too. We'll definitely hire Brianna again!”
Hi! My name is Savannah. I recently graduated with a degree in Biochemistry and am currently working while preparing my applications for medical school. I've been caring for children since I was 15 and have experience with all ages from newborns to 15 years old. I've worked with large families (up to five children at once), twins and multiples, and I also have experience as a night nanny. Supporting children with special needs is especially close to my heart, my younger brother, who is 15 years younger than me, is on the autism spectrum, and that's shaped both my understanding and my approach as a caregiver. I'm CPR and EMT certified, and I'm happy to help with everything from date nights and tutoring to outdoor activities and daily routines. I genuinely love working with kids and creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for them to thrive in.
“Savannah was great with our 4-year old. Punctual and great communication. I look forward to her sitting for us again soon!”
