Hi, I’m Cristina! I have over six years of experience caring for children from 10 months to 14 years old. I love babysitting because I enjoy doing fun projects with kids and taking them to the park. My interest in childcare really grew from helping take care of my little cousin with Down syndrome, which taught me a lot about patience and how rewarding it is to care for children. A little about me: I love reading, spending time with family and friends, and learning new things. I also have a dog that I love taking to the beach! I’m open to traveling with families as well. Thanks so much for taking the time to read a little about me!

Hi, I’m Alejandra, I have a degree in physical education, recreation and sports. I have more than 6 years of experience working with children. If you are looking for a reliable caregiver who will create a friendship and good connection with your children, I will be more than happy to meet your family! About me I am seeking to provide all my knowledge in childcare. I am affectionate, loving, and sweet with them. I love doing recreational activities with children according to all my learning in pedagogy. Each experience is important and unique in children's childhood. I love doing indoor activities such as painting, dancing, creating imaginative games, playing house, tea, making tents, puzzles, tile games, and many more activities according to their ages. I also love to complement the day with outdoor activities, going to the playground, scooters, sports, soccer, basketball, volleyball, tennis, skateboards, riding a bike, exploring nature, walking, taking them to activities, bubbles, chalk on the floor, hide and seek, etc. • I would like to help you with all the children's chores, such as washing clothes, preparing meat snacks, cleaning toys and playrooms, and washing bottles. • I’m experienced in bathing, feeding, and ensuring their daily routines are handled with care and attention. • I’m CPR/first aid certified, • I have my vaccines up to date • driver’s license. • I love pets.

Alejandra was wonderful with our toddler from the moment she arrived. We recently had our first paid interview with Alejandra. She was kind and warm, quickly getting down on the floor to play animal puzzles with our toddler. Her creativity shone through as she introduced different ways to play with the play food kitchen. Alejandra kept our little one thoroughly engaged with a coloring activity and reading books. Alejandra was also proactive during lunch and made the nap time transition smooth and easy. Our toddler even said 'night night 'Jandra' as she said her goodbyes, which melted our hearts. The time flew by as she kept our toddler entertained, allowing us to focus on reorganizing our house. We will definitely be hiring Alejandra again for babysitting!

Hi! My name is Maya and I am a recent Berkeley graduate! I live in Daly City and have been babysitting multiple families throughout the Bay Area over the past 9 years! I’ve provided childcare for children ages 1-10 and as well as have experience working with children with special needs and learning disabilities. I also have taken on additional duties such as tutoring in Math and English, after school pickup and drop offs (I have my own vehicle!), taking children to parks, museums, etc and I’ve been on care.com for a few years now and decided to try Urban Sitter! I have a very flexible schedule this summer and can connect you with references and answer any questions!

My kids had a wonderful time with Maya. They were asking for her to come back before she even left!

I’ll be happy to answer any of your questions. My life was full of small stories, as I was born with a “setting” in my mind, that I would love to understand what life is about in general. And I learned what is most important and why. One of the most important things (better to say values) is a good supportive atmosphere in a family, which I do with all my effort trying to keep in my family and will be putting not less effort to keep it in yours. I worked in IT for 10 years, before my youngest daughter was born. She is 17 now, finishing high school. Last 15 years (before we moved to California from Chicago) I was working in 2 derections. I was organizing art, music events and was working on a concept of “kid’s club” - informal studying, where kids would be able to see where is their natural potential, their inner strengths are. I’ll be happy to work with your kids and do my best to help them to develop what they can do the best, while to keep developing other strengths. Looking forward to hear from you. I was born in Belous (we speak Russian at home). My family immigrated to US in 1989. I was at the age of my youngest daughter

Yulia has been amazing with my 2-year-old! She's deeply caring and brings the best energy to every visit. What I appreciated most is how independent and proactive she is - she respects our wishes as parents but never needs detailed instructions. When my son wasn't feeling well, she was incredibly patient and accommodating, and once he recovered, she had him out on long walks and bike rides. Highly recommend!

Greetings! My name is Agyashree, and I also go by Aggy (Ah-gee). I am a part-time Paraprofessional II with the South San Francisco Unified School District, currently working at Junipero Serra Elementary School. I have over four years of experience supporting children in both school and home settings, including those with Autism and other developmental disabilities. In my current role, I provide individualized and group instruction based on IEPs, assist with academics, implement behavior support plans, and help with daily routines such as feeding, hygiene, and mobility support. In addition to my school experience, I worked for over two years with a teenager with cerebral palsy. During this time, I assisted with safe transfers using a wheelchair and ceiling lift, supported feeding (including feeding tube assistance), administered medications, and maintained hygiene and comfort. I also focused on emotional well-being by engaging him in activities like music and reading, and used communication tools to better understand and respond to his needs. I also have experience in senior care, supporting a client with dementia and diabetes with daily routines, medication and insulin administration, meal preparation, and companionship. I am patient, reliable, and dedicated to providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your family! I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Agyy was wonderful. My kids loved her!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
