Hi, I’m Leighanna! I’m a nursing student with over 11 years of babysitting experience, starting when I was just 13. I’ve cared for children of all ages and pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and calm in any situation. Alongside childcare, I also offer dog sitting—I have two sweet pups of my own, Okia and Yumi, so animals are very close to my heart. I earned my undergraduate degree from San Francisco State University and am now pursuing my master’s in Nursing. Outside of school and sitting, I love to bake and have been dancing for 22 years, which keeps me creative, active, and full of energy. I bring that same warmth, responsibility, and enthusiasm into every family I work with and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for kids. 🚗 Rates & Transportation: 🚗 My standard rate is $30/hour minimum for one child. I’m always happy to discuss rates and am comfortable accepting bookings at a different posted rate if one is listed. For families located across the bridge, I kindly ask for assistance with the bridge toll, which is currently $8.50. ❌Cancellations❌ Because I reserve time specifically for your family and may turn down other opportunities, any booking canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice will incur a cancellation fee equal to one hour of care at my normal rate. If plans change or a booking ends early for reasons outside of my control, I ask that the reserved booking time be honored for payment unless we’ve agreed on a different arrangement in advance. I completely understand that unexpected situations can come up, and I appreciate your understanding and consideration of my time. Thank you!

Hi families! My name is Amber, and I’m a nurturing and energetic caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and healthcare. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of San Francisco, where I’m deepening my knowledge of child development, safety, and wellness—skills I bring into every babysitting experience. With over 6 years of experience in customer-facing roles and a background supervising children ages 5 months to 6 years old at The Bar Method, I’ve developed the ability to stay calm under pressure, adapt quickly, and create fun, engaging, and safe environments for kids of all ages. What sets me apart: CPR/First Aid knowledge through my nursing education (and working toward official certification) Experience with Autism, ADHD, and Dementia A warm, friendly, and creative personality Experience tutoring peers, which translates into helping with homework or schoolwork at home A reliable, organized, and equity-driven mindset: I value every child’s uniqueness and treat them with respect and kindness. Whether you’re looking for a dependable sitter for your child, a responsible helper for school-age children, or someone to step in last-minute with patience and care, I’d love to support your family’s needs when I’m not busy with school. Additionally, I offer household cleaning and pet services! Because of my school schedule, I’m looking for occasional care! Looking forward to connecting!
“Amber was very kind and patient with my 3 year old daughter. She was actively engaged in playing and even brought some of her own things for them to do together.”
Hi I’m Jhenae! I’m a college student available for one-time or part time work during July-August 2026! I absolutely love working with children! For the past 6 years, I have cared for infants, toddlers, and youth! From part-time babysitting positions, to working summer camps, and volunteer work with children! Families would describe me as caring, responsible, and very attentive. I always prioritize children’s needs while making sure they are having fun! (Away from the technology, of course!) In addition, I have a license and my own car! I am willing to safely drive your children upon request! I am also experienced in caring for pets so I’m willing to help in any way possible! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!
“Jhenae was awesome! She was kind, punctual, and my little guy loved playing with her! Looking forward to booking her again!”
Hello my name is Angela but I go by Angie. I am 25 years old attending my last year at San Francisco State University. My major is Sociology. I have an AA in human development and childhood development. I would love to work with kids once I get my degree. As for now I am willing to baby sit and care of children any ages. I am very respectful, caring, considerate and very aware of my actions, words and thoughts. I totally enjoy working and playing with kids due to their fun persona. My experience began through family and taking care of children through all ages. Then I joined Urban Sitter in 2020 and decided to open up to all opportunities available. I will be so grateful to gain more experience from the experiences I get through engagement with kids. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know. thank you!
“She was very attentive, kind and punctual. Would definitely hire again.”
