Booked by 3 families in Glen Ellen, CA

Hi! I’m Odalis, a Nursing major at Santa Rosa Junior College with a genuine love for caring for kids. I enjoy singing, dancing, spending time with my dog, going to church, and being with the people I love. Babysitting is truly an art to me — one that takes patience, creativity, and heart. I’m known for being patient, reliable, and loving, and I always aim to bring comfort, joy, and calm to every child I care for. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to older kids, including multiple children at once. My experience includes school pick-ups and drop-offs, practices, games, homework help, meal prep, light cleaning, and full routines — from fun activities to bedtime. I’m also comfortable with infant care, including feedings, stroller walks, reading, naps, and soothing nighttime routines. I’m dog-friendly and happy working with both small and big dogs! I look forward to providing reliable, loving care and creating a joyful, safe, and nurturing environment for your little one(s).

Booked by 6 families in Glen Ellen, CA

Dual-Service Childcare & Household Professional! My name is Carly, and I’m equally passionate about caring for children as I am about creating a well-run, tidy home. I’m a Bay Area native and a single mother by choice to a wonderful 4-year-old daughter. After many years working in tech, I’ve returned to my roots in hands-on care, with previous experience as both a nanny and lifeguard. Supporting families in their homes is where I truly thrive. As a parent, I understand firsthand the mental load that comes with keeping a household running; meals, laundry, groceries, activities, organization, errands, and making sure the kids are happy and engaged. My goal is to step in, anticipate needs, and take meaningful tasks off your plate so your home and family life can run a little more smoothly. I approach my work from a safety-first angle, while also being dependable, proactive, and organized. I have sound judgment and value transparent communication. I bring warmth and attentiveness to childcare, along with a practical, thoughtful approach to household support. I’m currently accepting childcare-only roles, household support roles, or a combination of both, depending on the child(s) schedule. I have limited availability for recurring commitments, with greater flexibility for ad-hoc or occasional support. I’m happy to share my rates, résumé, and references. I look forward to connecting with families who could use an extra set of capable, caring hands!

Hi—I’m Shannon, a Bay Area household assistant based in Santa Rosa offering dependable home management, childcare and pet care with a calm, solutions ‑oriented approach that helps families feel at ease from the first booking. Experience includes camp leadership and consistent care for multiple families; happy to help with school pick‑ups, simple meals, homework support, and creative play tailored to each age group. A background in Food Science and years in fast‑paced workplaces sharpened organization, safety awareness, and problem‑solving that carry into the home. Comfortable with dogs and cats, and available for as needed and recurring support.

“We initially hired Shannon for a last minute babysitting request. During our youngest's nap time she cleaned the house, and it looked amazing. She has great ideas when it comes to organization and structure, and provided an immense amount of support for us for an event we held over the weekend. Shannon's skills do not stop at childcare. She is incredibly proactive, creative, communicative, extremely organized. We would highly recommend hiring Shannon for your childcare and household support needs.”

"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

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
