Kara $30 per hour for 1 child

In addition to my experience with my younger sister, I have experience with the elderly. In high school I volunteered with them. I read and did a variety of activities. I’m also an experienced dog owner. I grew up with dogs and also have had them in my adult life. I believe my years of experience coupled with my degree in communication makes me uniquely qualified.

Hello! My name is Annika - I’m offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve been working with children for nearly seven years now, and have experience tutoring all age levels. I grew up on a farm, so I’m very comfortable taking care of furry (or scaly) friends too! I’d be happy to help around the house - cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and running errands.

So kind and sweet with our 3 month old baby! Thank you again for all your help today. :)

Booked by 1 family in Alameda, CA

I’m a former K-8 special education teacher with four years of experience working with students with mild to moderate disabilities. I’ve also been babysitting and coaching youth soccer for over 10 years. I love hanging out with kids, helping them learn new things, and making sure they have a fun, positive experience. I’m available for tutoring, babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting, and I’m happy to help out however I can. A Little More About Me I love being outdoors -- hiking, biking, playing sports, and swimming are some of my favorite ways to spend my free time. Excited to meet you and your family!

Couldn’t have been happier with her communication, responsiveness, and attentiveness. Last minute scheduling, booking, and lots of info from me in a brief period of time - and I felt such a good vibe and feeling of trust the entire time. She was great with my 18m old, who is a very busy boy (and our dog!). Would love to have Kay back at ours in the future!

I’m a responsible, experienced, oldest daughter with 5 younger siblings with a large age gap. I spent the majority of my teen years babysitting and watching my siblings. I also have had two full time nanny jobs for children ranging from 4-13. I have experience with children with autism, food intolerances, and medical conditions. I’ve done part time babysitting and nannying jobs here in San Francisco for the last 3 years now as well. Overall I’m someone who loves children and has plenty of experience both professionally and personally. I also am very self sufficient and well versed in running errands and driving around the city. I look forward to any new opportunities to continue doing what I love!

Victoria was great! We’d gladly have her back. My nine year old daughter especially loved hanging out with her

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
