Hi! I am currently a student at SRJC, working on getting my associates in child development. My babysitting journey began when I was 15, and I've been caring for my younger sister since she was born. She's now 11, and I still spend a lot of my free time with her. -I have my CNA certificate, and am CPR & BSL certified. - If needed, I am willing to provide references. I have experience with children of all ages, from babies and toddlers to older kids. Some of my responsibilities have included: -Driving children to/from the park or sports practices -Engaging in crafts and playing games with the children -Homework Help -Dog sitting -Organizing What I love most about babysitting is the connections I build with the kids and their families. & the fact that I get to meet their pets, I love cats & dogs! I have been fortunate to work with amazing clients, and these relationships have been incredibly rewarding. I look forward to meeting and working with your family!

“We love Cass! She took care of our two boys (5 and 1.5) all summer, and she is now our go-to nanny. She’s so easy to work with, very open to feedback/collaboration, a great communicator, and loves our boys, which is the best! I also really appreciate the way she helps to clean up after the kids and isn’t shy about getting out the vacuum!”

Angelli $30 per hour for 1 child

I'm a motivated person who values teamwork, clear communication, and building strong working relationships. I like working with kids because I believe early support and encouragement shape lifelong success. I enjoy being a positive role model and creating a safe, engaging environment. I'm looking for a job where we can value a supportive team environment, and clear communication. I started working with kids at the age of 15, and that early experience helped me build patience, responsibility, and a genuine passion for supporting kids' growth. In my spare time, I like to stay active by going to the gym. I also like doing puzzles and crafts, which allow me to relax and be creative. One thing you should know about me is that I genuinely care. I treat every child with patience, kindness, and respect, and I always aim to create a safe and supportive environment. My top three child care skills are patience, strong communication, and the ability to create engaging, age-appropriate activities.

"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)."
