Adaline $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Addie. I have a background with child, senior and pet care. I studied child development in college. I’ve worked in preschools and day cares. In the past I’ve worked at senior care homes as well as in home private care. I also have provided services in rover and wag for pet care. I’ve provided care for some many and enjoy being of service to others. I truly love people and want to find extra work that involves helping others. I’m also college educated so I can help with homework too. I’m also very crafty and would love to teach art or be creative with your family. I’m a great cook and primarily eat vegetarian. Lastly I can help with housework and can do everything from landscaping to cleaning the house. Thanks for reading my bio. I look forward to meet you

Brittany $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Brittany and I’m currently a photography/marketing/film freelance professional. My experience with children truly started around age 10 when I would babysit my nephew. I started babysitting neighborhood children around high school. I also dabbled in tutoring. As an adult, I’m frequently the activity coordinator for my (now 4 nephew’s and 2 baby cousin’s) birthday parties. This past year I had the opportunity to manage a swim school for ages 6months-12years! As the Marketing & General Store Manager - I oversaw our facility while conducting classes of up to 50 children. I was also responsible for running our swim birthday parties, with up to 100 guests. I am CPR, lifeguard, & swim instructor certified.

Olamide $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Olamide, currently a 3rd year at San Diego state. I’ve been babysitting since I was a child myself, it’s something I enjoyed and always volunteered myself for. As I got older, I made sort of a career out of it, charging for my services. I’ve worked with all ages ranging from new infants to elementary school kids. Whether it’s to help a new mom with baby chores/duties after giving birth, or watching the kids while they’re out, or light housecleaning, meal prep, etc, I do it all, and well at that! I have been told by all my clients that they’re always so grateful for my help and that’s something I’m extremely proud of! I would love to be of help in any way I can! Feel free to reach out!

Booked by 1 family in National City, CA

Hello, my name is Alexis but most people call me Alex and I have had over 15 years of experience taking care of animals, children, and a couple seniors to support myself through college. I’ve taken care of one main household for over 13 years and I love their children and animals as if they are my own. At client’s request I am happy to do light housecleaning, cooking, school pick up or drop off, administer medications, and take care of their pets needs as well. I thrive on taking care of the community in a multitude of ways over the years, but taking care of children and animals brings me the most joy.

"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)."
