My experience includes babysitting for parents i've met through jobs i've had in the past, friends & through this app. I've babysat throughout the summers & done after school care as well. I've also been working as a paraprofessional at a school here in Oakland for the past 2 years. I enjoy working with children and find it an extremely rewarding experience. I always make sure to take great care and exercise all precautionary measures to ensure the safety of the children. I feel that I have all of the necessary qualities that make a good babysitter. I am very respectful and will adhere to your house rules and also remind your child(ren) of the rules if needed.

Booked by 100 families in Emeryville, CA

My name is Tristan and I am a Cal graduate and have worked closely with children in a classroom setting and as a babysitter and part-time nanny. I love developing a strong, trusting relationship with children. Most recently, I was a part-time nanny for a 3-month-old and managed bottle feedings, contact naps, tummy time, and other age-appropriate enrichment. I was a part-time nanny for a 10 year old from October 2018 to May 2019, and for a 2 year old from August 2021 to September 2022, and two families of 3 (ages 4-9) in Berkeley in 2023 and 2024. I've previously worked at a Children's Discovery Museum as an educator, assisting a wide range of children in developing a deeper understanding of the arts and sciences. I have experience performing reading intervention and mentoring third- and fifth-grade students at Emerson Elementary in Berkeley. I pride myself on my reliability, kindness, understanding, and my ability to connect with children! I love promoting curiosity, encouraging self-expression, and role modeling positive interactions with others/the environment. I am committed to supporting your family and implementing practices that best meet your needs. I look forward to getting to know you and your family!

Booked by 29 families in Emeryville, CA

Hello there! I'm Haley, an experienced childcare worker with four years of experience. I'm currently seeking a full-time nanny role or a part-time position. My experience includes teaching infant and toddler classrooms at a daycare, occasional work with older kids, and tutoring at the high school and college level. I studied Data Science at UC Berkeley, and worked as a lab assistant in computer science and data science courses. I can also assist with meal prep and cooking. As a nanny, creating a safe and nurturing environment is my priority. I enjoy my work because I can watch kids grow and develop into amazing human beings, and being a part of that process is so invaluable. Outside of childcare, I like being outdoors or cooking for friends and family. If you're looking for someone to join your family, my inbox is open to messages. I would love to chat with you!

“Haley is fantastic. She did great with my gifted and neurodivergent child.”

Booked by 77 families in Emeryville, CA

Hello parents! My name is Livia, I’m 32 years old, and I’m originally from Brazil. One of the things I love most about being a childcare provider is getting to know each child and building a genuine connection with them. Every child has their own personality, and I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, and truly seen. I love the Montessori philosophy and enjoy using many of its principles in my daily work. At the same time, I understand every family is unique, so I always respect each family’s parenting style and adapt my care to what works best for their child. I’ve been caring for children for several years in both Brazil and the U.S. I worked as an au pair from 2019 to 2021, and since then I’ve been working as a professional nanny, primarily with infants and toddlers while caring for children of all ages. I recently graduated from Berkeley City College with degrees in Liberal Arts and Gender Studies, and I continue taking courses in child development because I genuinely love learning. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have completed Child Safety training through the American Red Cross Learning Center, and have a clean driving record with my own reliable car. One of the most meaningful experiences of my life was volunteering in Tanzania, where I cared for children in a daycare while supporting a girls’ education project. I speak Portuguese, English, and Spanish. I also spent three months living in Argentina, which helped me improve my Spanish while experiencing the culture. I love arts and crafts, reading, sensory play, outdoor adventures, and creating fun, developmentally appropriate activities. I’m available for date nights, weekends, overnights, travel, and I’m always happy to care for pets too. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Booked by 5 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi, my name is Telice and I’m a patient, caring, and dependable babysitter with experience working with children from newborns through high school. As a former educator, dancer, and gymnastics coach, I’m comfortable supporting children at different developmental stages and creating a safe, positive environment where they can express themselves. I also love reading, playing, getting creative, helping with homework, and encouraging imaginative play. I’m comfortable working with children with a wide range of personalities, learning styles, and support needs, and I strive to meet each child where they are. I’m responsible, attentive, and playful, with reliable transportation and an open schedule. I’m available for both occasional and recurring care and would love the opportunity to support your family!

“I hired Telice to help as a contractor for my friend’s housekeeping business. She was very professional and has good communication, she responded promptly to my request. Her duties were to help with a large move-out clean. She was an incredible worker. She arrived promptly with an amazing attitude and attention to detail. She works very efficiently and was able to get all of her task completed and even helped out with additional work as well. Telice was a pleasure to work with and my friend is looking forward to working with her again. ”

"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)."
