Hi!! My name is Shontece 😊 I’m a college student majoring in Communications with several years of childcare experience through babysitting, working in an after school program and currently being a summer camp counselor. Working with kids is something I genuinely enjoy and I love creating a safe, fun, loving and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, happy, and cared for! I’m very patient, reliable, trustworthy and energetic. I always try to make life easier for parents however I can. I love building genuine connections with children while also helping families keep routines smooth and stress free. I have experience with infants, toddlers and school aged kids, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with crafts, games, educational activities, outdoor play, movies, bedtime routines, homework help and fun creative activities that match their personalities and interests. I also don’t mind helping with light housekeeping such as dishes, laundry, tidying up, organizing, meal/snack prep, errands or pet care if needed. I’m a huge dog lover as well, so furry family members are always a bonus for me 🥰🥰 Communication is very important to me, so I always keep parents updated and make sure their expectations are met. Families often describe me as kind, dependable, nurturing, and easy to communicate with. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and always prioritize safety while still making sure kids have fun and feel supported. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can truly rely on long term 😊

“Shontece was wonderful! Very communicative in advance and did an amazing job overseeing 5-10 kids at a time for arts and crafts at a big summer party. Will gladly hire her again for babysitting or larger group events. ”

Booked by 3 families in Grimes, CA

Hi I am Caroline and I am currently a sophomore at UC Davis. I am offering childcare, pet care, and senior. I love kids and have about 18 years of experience with them. I grew up in a household with a lot of siblings and had to take care of them my whole life. I have 8 of them younger than me and had to do things from changing diapers to driving them to sports games. I am very outgoing and am good at resolving disputes between children and making them feel seen and heard. I also have many pets such as cats, dogs, chickens, and cows so I know much about taking care of them. Same goes for seniors I have many years of experience from taking care of my grandparents and cooking and cleaning for them as well.

"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)."
