Matel $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Matel. I’m currently a caregiver. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, and even dance lessons and songs. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. My only weakness is that I am allergic to pets.

Hi families! My name is Lauren and I provide childcare out of my home in Petaluma. I'm a mom of two (ages 9 and 12) and have been babysitting since I was 13 with 11 years of full-time childcare experience. I'm CPR & First Aid certified. I have a 5 star rating on my Care.com profile and many references. I am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and welcoming environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. Our days are usually filled with playtime, learning activities and lots of interaction. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, patient and easy to work with.

"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."

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)."
