Kathy $24 per hour for 1 child

l am currently a college student with a strong background in caregiving, stemming from my domestic upbringing and experiences. As the oldest of four, I helped my parents take care of my three younger siblings, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to handle different age groups and personalities. I also have experience caring for my grandmother, where I help her with daily tasks, keep her company, and ensure she feels safe and supported. Through these experiences, I've learned how important it is to be dependable, kind, and attentive. I'm very friendly, organized, and proficient at multitasking. I value myself as someone others can rely on and trust. I have limited experience with pets, including cats and dogs, but I'm very willing to learn and follow instructions. Overall, my background has helped me develop strong caregiving skills, and I genuinely enjoy helping others. This lets me bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and a caring approach to everything I do.

Hello! I’m a nurturing, compassionate caregiver with a lifetime of experience caring for children, adults, and seniors. I am mom of three wonderful adults, with a degree in nursing (BS from UVA) and experience as an art director. Over the years, I’ve cared for people of all ages, from babysitting to working in children’s rehabilitation and autism support. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and recently trained as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I’ve also cared for seniors, recently supporting my own father through his dementia journey. With two cats and a lifelong love for animals, I’m equally at home with pets. Beyond caregiving, I enjoy ceramics, painting, and outdoor activities. I bring warmth, reliability, and a genuine love for people of all ages. I’d be honored to support your family—please reach out with any questions!

Shayna $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am an experienced nanny with an associate's degree in Early Childhood Education. I am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree at San Francisco State University, where I am studying Child and Adolescent Development with a concentration in Community, Health and Social Services. I spent my freshman year of college working at a Child Study Center, where I was trained by teachers with decades of experience. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in both professional and home settings. I also have experience working with elementary and middle school aged children as a nanny. During Covid, I worked as a live-in nanny for an infant/toddler in Austin, TX. After returning to the East Bay, I continued caring for children from infancy through middle school. I am trained in anti-bias education, age appropriate curriculum planning, and supporting children's social emotional development. I am looking for a nannying job while I am pursuing my bachelors degree.

Yuting $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I go by Amy, I am a Chinese Asian American from the Bay Area. I have experience working at a summer camp for K-5 as-well as babysitting. I would describe myself as a friendly, talkative, funny, and reliable person. I prioritize communication, this incudes double checking with parents as well as always being on time unless communicated beforehand. I am really good at giving advice, as-well as encouraging kids on learning new skills or pushing them to try harder. I enjoy art, sports, cooking, and fun activities. As someone who prioritizes protein and health in meals, I am really good at cooking tasty meals nutritional content in mind. I am fluent in both English and Chinese Mandarin. For first meetings I would prefer to only take payment thru the website in order to prevent scams, after that, cash is okay! Please don’t be afraid to contact me if interested! Hire me now if you are interested in a fun, engaged, youthful, and knowledgeable sitter for your kids! I hope we can work together to create a respectful, communicative, and safe environment for both us and your kids! I can maybe stay overnight after trust has been meet and safety is ensured as long as I have a room to sleep in with privacy. I don’t currently own a car but I do have my license and I would be perfectly fine with driving your vehicle as long as the insurance is on the car and I am guaranteed to be covered as-well (it’s all about feeling safe). Please keep inquires and messages appropriate and don’t message about anything outside of my services!

Hi! My name is Maya and i’m currently a student at Berkeley City College, with hopes to transfer into UC Berkeley next fall. I am offering babysitting as well as petsitting services.

"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."

"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)."
